Important: Bicycle replacement and roadside assistance
CCT Bike Rental delivers bicycles across a wide geographical area, sometimes several hours away from our rental location.
For this reason, we do not provide on-site bicycle replacements, bicycle exchanges or roadside assistance as part of Bike Damage Protection.
If your bicycle becomes damaged or cannot be ridden safely, you are responsible for arranging transportation to a local bicycle repair shop.
Bike Damage Protection covers approved repair costs only. It does not cover transportation expenses, replacement bicycle rentals, lost cycling days or other consequential costs, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
