In order to take account of the technical development of e-bikes and to increase safety, various regulations were amended as of July 1, 2025.

In principle, the bicycle from the long-term rental can be transported by public transport if the railway service permits this. You must check this in advance at www.sbb.ch. The long-term rental can NOT be transported free of charge on the train. You will need your own bike ticket for this. For further information on self-loading of bicycles, please contact the SBB directly.
The rented e-bike can be exchanged during the long-term rental. However, this is only possible with advance notice and if availability is guaranteed. In addition, an exchange fee of CHF 100.00 will be charged. The exchange can only be made at our Rent a Bike locations (Murten, Willisau, Bellinzona and Romanshorn).
