WHAT TO BRING IF YOU RENT A BIKE FROM DARK HILLS UGANDA

Bikes rented for tours always come with a helmet, a single water bottle cage, and a standard saddle. If you prefer to bring your own saddle (just the saddle, not the seat post), additional water bottle cage, or SPD pedals, we will fit them to your bike for the tour. Don’t forget to bring your shoes and cleats if you bring SPD pedals!
