Deposits & Payments

Payment in full is required. Additionally, for rentals of all our bikes, a security deposit is required to be provided upon receipt of the bike. Deposit will apply (the amount will be pre-authorised on your credit card at the time of rental pickup, but not debited from your account). This amount will be blocked on your credit card at pick-up time. Deposit will be used for extra charges (e.g. damages, extra-day,etc.). Note that deposit release time can be up to 7 days depending on banks and countries .More information on deposit amounts can be found on our Rental Rates page.

Cancellations/Refunds

Deposits are refundable provided that notice of cancellation is received 10 days prior to the start of the rental period. There is no refund of deposits for bookings made less than 10 days prior to the start of the rental period.

Insurance/Liability

IRONMAN INSURANCE POLICIES

• You are fully responsible for the bike from the time you pick it up until the time you return it.  You are responsible for any damage, loss or theft of or to the bike.  You are responsible for the repair or replacement of the bike, wheels or parts that are missing or damaged.
•   We have optional insurance available.  The cost for such insurance for an Ironman event is €125,00 with a €450,00 deductible applied (so all losses attributed to damage above €450,00 are covered by the insurance).
• Normal wear and tear is not covered.  Calculation of loss will be based on the full retail price of the bike in the event of theft or irreparable damage.  In the event of damage which can be repaired (at our absolute discretion) the loss will be calculated by reference to the cost of such repair.
