Cycling in Japan

Touring Japan on a Road or Touring bike is a beautiful way to see the country.

Just send us your heights, desired cycling dates and whether you will also need panniers. Some cyclists bring their own panniers which is also completely fine, most panniers will fit on our racks without any problems. 

  • Road Bike Rental Japan is top notch.

    Wonderful bikes and excellent team. I was so pleased with my entire day adventure around Osaka and visiting a local temple atop a mountain. Gareth is a wonderful owner and a wealth of local information. I was very pleased with the maintenance of the bike I rented. I will certainly be back on my next visit to Osaka.

  • Best bike hire company in Japan

    Great alloy roadbikes for rent, the best in Japan. Easy, flexible negotiation (e.g. frame size, bike type) by email IN ENGLISH OR JAPANESE. Seamless payment by web form and credit card. Easy pickup from bike store conveniently located near Sakuranomiya station on the Osaka loop line. Bike store also located adjacent to Yodo river cycling route - no riding on busy Osaka roads required!

  • Highly recommended!!

    I rented a road bike from these guys for just over a week. The service was excellent, they had everything ready and were happy to fit my saddle and pedals for me. Brilliant value too, their prices are on the cheaper side and the bikes are much higher quality than you would expect for the price. Highly recommended!!
