We have partnered with Delavay Sport and their sister company L’Aetiler to bring guests a complete range of Les Gets bike hire options. Delavay Sports specialises in downhill mountain biking where L’Aetiler has high quality road, electric and all-mountain bikes. Please note the bike hire prices are the exact same as renting directly from the hire shops.
Located right next to the bottom of the chair lift, Delavay Sports has knowledgeable and friendly staff to ensure guests are ready for their biking holiday. Delavay Sports offer mountain biking gear, mountain biking repair and control services to keep guests gear in tip top condition. There is also the possibility to ‘try before buy’ with some of the mountain biking gear.
Delavay offers the following items for hire. They also can provide all the protective items people need such as elbow/knee pads, helmets and breastplates.
Downhill MTB's have enhanced frames and full suspension, typically with about 7 inches of travel. They're heavy, beefy and geared for descents, not really made for climbing.
Enduro bikes are a light, more versatile downhill mountain bike as they have a light carbon fibre frame
A complete versatile bike for all terrain; robust with full suspension, they are lighter than downhill bikes. They are designed to handle steep ascents, rough descents and all the unexpected discoveries in-between. Falls between cross-country bikes and downhill bikes.
The Electric Adventure Vehicle (VAE in French) is an electric mountain bike that has a battery and an electric motor. The motor only works when you are pedalling, as a ‘power assist’.
At Delavay Sports, we also have mountain bikes for children so they can get to know this activity. Versatile bikes as well as the whole range of protective gear to safely learn the basics.
L’Atelier Specialises in road, electric bikes and enduro mountain bikes. L’Atelier offer a wide range of long trip or performance race road bikes. They have a team of experienced experts that can ensure the guests have the best bike adapted to their level and preferences. The range includes carbon or aluminium frames (carbon frames are lighter), varied wheel weight and different types of transmissions. They also can provide all the protective items people need such as elbow/knee pads, helmets and breastplates.
L’Atelier also offers bike servicing and repairs and they can assist with sales.
Cross-country bikes are the lightest and stiffest. They usually have only front suspension. They're optimized for climbing and long cross-country rides.
Enduro bikes are a light more versatile mountain bike
These bikes are built for speed and distance, with light, strong frames and narrow, smooth tires designed for paved surfaces. Road bikes allow riders to lean far forward and grip the curved handlebars below as they hunch over, allowing for an aerodynamic ride that maximizes speed.
The Electric Adventure Vehicle (VAE in French) is an electric mountain bike that has a battery and an electric motor. The motor only works when you are pedalling, as a ‘power assist’.
