Touring bikes: Ready for your bike adventure
If you’re looking to travel comfortably on longer journeys, choose a touring bike or a cross bike for your route. Cross-bikes combine the narrower tyres of touring bikes with MTB features (fork with suspension, disc brakes and chain gears with up to 30 gears) creating fast all-rounders for fixed and unconsolidated routes. In order to transport luggage on your bike however, we recommend the use of specially designed touring and travel bike models. They are optimised for comfort and great control over many hours in the saddle. Their components are equally carefree, application-oriented and comprehensive. You can expect a firmly installed lighting system with hub dynamo and solid luggage carriers.

- Some models come complete with spring-loaded seat posts for extra comfort
What is a touring bike used for?
A touring bike is not only suitable for epic journeys through mountain ranges and across country borders; it can also be used to commute and for grocery shopping. In contrast to mountain bikes or road bikes, with a touring bike you have option to carry luggage for longer rides and multi-day trips. These features make the touring bike probably the most versatile kind of bike available.
