Popelier bicycle rental on Mariastraat did not survive the Corona crisis, but in summer 2021 De Ketting is open for business. Not only a rental, also a nice bicycle & repair shop. I called at 10 am to hire 4 bicycles at 11 am. Very friendly owner, bicycles in excellent shape, super rate of €10 per day per bicycle, including saddle bags and locks. Professionally adjusted to our body sizes in no time. We took the ride along the canal to Damme, about 30‘ to 45‘ away from De Ketting, then toured the city of Brugge. We can recommend, bicycles are the best way to move around in Brugge and surroundings, if you do not wish to limit yourself to the city center.

This is a great hire shop, make sure you have euros as cash only.
Good basic bikes only €10 a day, no deposit or leaving passports. Each bike has panniers, tyre repair kit and you are off. It’s just off the circular route around the city, easy to follow the paths and go off to Damme along the canal.
Brugge is the perfect location for a days cycling.

We rented bikes from Deketting twice during our stay in Bruge. The customer service was excellent and the bikes also well maintained. We were worried that we might struggle to find a bike for our 10 yr old but she was supplied with a perfect fit in no time. The bikes have locks and bags for your bits and pieces which was also appreciated. Very reasonably priced and would highly recommend this provider.

My wife and I hired bikes and cycled to Damme and around Bruges, passed the windmills and back to Minnenswater. Really helpful at the shop, adjusted the bikes for us and gave really good suggestions as to where to cycle. Only €20 for 2 bikes for the day. Incredible value!

We rented 2 bikes at De Ketting for a day around Bruges.
The owners were friendly and proposed us quickly good bikes.
The proposed bikes were well adapted to our size and needs. They even agreed to borrow us some tools and spare tires, just in case (but we did not need them).

I used to live in Bruges, so it was a must to hire some bikes when i visited with my partner. The owners are extremely friendly and the bikes were in brilliant condition. Very reasonable prices too. We went around the Ring, visiting the windmills on the way and then had a ride around the town centre. :)

This was a very friendly shop that made renting bikes easy. We rented 2 e-bikes for a little jaunt out to Damme which had a really easy bike trail from Bruges. The shop just needed our names, phone number and address (in town) and we were on our way. Could not have been easier and they were so nice. Also, the best price we saw in town.
The shop is really cool on its own too if you need gear or anything. They even make their own bikes right there!

We were 2 families of 8 (in total) and having considered all of the main hire companies in Bruges, settled on De Ketting. The cost was 6 euros per bike, per day (they do not hire tandems) and we hired the bikes for 3 days. The cost of one of the other firms was 5 euros for 1 hour!!!!!
Bikes in good condition and supplied with pannier bags (need to ask for bags) and locks.

We came to this shop to rent two bikes for a day trip around Bruges after reading other online reviews. The couple who runs the business was very friendly and helpful. They had plenty of bikes in stock, all good quality solid, and well maintained. Prices as published on their website and were lower compared to the cost of renting bikes in more 'turisty' parts of Bruges. We were very pleased with our experience and would happily come back to this shop on our next visit.

I have tried emailing direct but not getting a reply.
Do you need to pre book for a 4 day hire? Is it still 8 Euro per bike per day?
Can they supply cycle path map?
Thanks

Sorry for delayed reply! I have been on holiday. You can walk in and get bikes for more than one day. We did a two day hire and then went back later for a third day. We only biked around Brugge and then to the Netherlands for a day trip. They may have a biking map, we did not need one for where we were going as we were able to use the local maps for where we were traveling by bike. And the cost was 8 Euros a day when we were there in the spring.

Hi... We will be in port for the day on August 4th 2019 and were looking to hire bikes for the day. Waiting to confirm exact numbers but thinking 6 normal bikes and 3 electric. Please can you advise how much per bike? Thank you. Jenni

Yes, it wasn't expensive compared to the others. I think from memory it was 8 Euros per day up to about 5pm, but you could extend and bring the bikes back the next morning for another few euros.
También tiene ebike de alquiler? Esas bicicletas con motor eléctrico.
Lo que la tarifa diaria.

Hola pepa, una pregunta, en De Ketting, es posible alquilar una bicicleta y regresarla al dÃa siguiente?, estoy buscando lugares donde me alquilen bajo esa modalidad, pero en todas las que he encontrado lo tienes que regresar 30 minutos antes de la hora de cierre, es decir, no te lo alquilan para que te quedes con ella toda la noche.
mil gracias.

Hallo Bonjour, Is it possible to rent a bike for multiple days? We are interested in biking from Bruges to Ghent. If not, could you recommend a company that would accomodate this request? Dankjevel Merci
