Bicycle
shops, repair and rental in Cracow
Bicycle
shops are numerous, so are repair shops. There is a pretty good bicycle
rental in Cracow, too.
The Cracow bicycle shops are listed in one of the oldest and revered
cycling webpages in Poland - here. I believe it is up to date. The
cycling community preferred bicycle shop is
CycloCentrum (now moved out of the downtown area to Wileńska street,
near Aleja 29 Listopada junction (phone: shop 012.4187480,
repair shop 012.4177490). If you
are looking for some rare
parts, probably most bicycle shops will direct
you there. They provide repair, too. If you cannot find the
parts you are looking for, you can browse the best Internet bicycle
shop in Poland - Cyklotur (the webpage is in Polish
only).
Bicycle rental Two Wheels is located at 5, Józefa
Street in the Kazimierz
district, near Krakowska Street. City bicycles of various sizes are
available. Opening hours are 9:00 a.m. through 8:00 p.m. (including
Saturdays and Sundays). Price is 30 PLN per day and you must
return the bicycle before closing time, otherwise you are charged for
the delay. Credit cards are
accepted. A deposit of 200 PLN is required
(cash or card) and you must present an ID card. If you need a
significant amount of bicycles for a larger group of cyclists, call
+48.12.4215785 in advance to book and facilitate the bicycle delivery
when you pick them at the shop. An English speaking
guide can be hired to lead you through the city.
The rental shop is a social aid project run by
disabled people cooperative - the Aniela Salawa Foundation for the Sclerosis
Multiplex.
