1. Applicability

These rental terms apply to all mountain bike rental agreements with MTB Twente. By making a reservation, the renter accepts these terms.

2. Reservation and cancellation

  • Reservations and payments are made via our website. A reservation is only valid after payment has been received.
  • You can cancel up to 24 hours before the start of the rental period. Within 24 hours before the start, no refund is possible.
  • In case of extreme weather conditions, such as thunderstorms, storms or icy roads, the renter can contact us in advance to reschedule by mutual agreement.
  • When making a reservation we process personal data such as name and contact details. See our privacy policy for more information.

3. Pickup and return

  • MTB Twente operates an unmanned service. The renter picks up the bike, uses it with care, and returns it independently.
  • Wearing a helmet while using the bike is mandatory.
  • The correct frame size is selected during the reservation process. In principle, switching to a different size after booking is not possible.
  • The bike must be returned no later than the agreed end time and in any case before 20:00. Late returns may incur additional charges.

4. Breakdowns on the road

  • Each rental includes a basic emergency kit for simple repairs, such as fixing a puncture.
  • MTB Twente does not offer a pickup service. In case of a breakdown, the renter is responsible for returning the bike to the drop-off location.

  • During the rental period the renter is responsible for loss or theft of the bike. The bike must always be properly locked and may not be left unattended.
  • In case of theft or total loss, the renter is liable for the replacement value (current value) of the bike. In case of theft, a police report must be filed.
  • The bikes have unique identifiers and/or registration systems to enable recovery.

7. Liability

  • The renter is liable for damage to the bike that is not the result of normal wear and tear.

8. Force majeure

MTB Twente may modify or cancel the agreement in cases of force majeure, such as extreme weather or technical failures. We will look for a suitable solution in consultation, for example rescheduling the reservation.
