Incidentally, Call a Bike has a slightly different look everywhere you go

Every city is different, with an ambience and lifestyle all its own,
so Call a Bike has its own unique presence in some places.
Take these four cities, for instance:

StadtRAD Hamburg

With some 3,000,000 rides per year, Hamburg is the most successful city in the Call a Bike network. It's also one of the cities where we offer cargo pedelecs.

Hamburg residents love their StadtRAD! Some of them share their experiences about it in the StadtRAD blog.

RegioRadStuttgart

Stuttgart consistently backs efforts to link the city to surrounding areas with environmentally-friendly means of mobility. That works because our normal bikes are supplemented with 430 pedelecs for longer stretches.

First off, you need to register with Call a Bike on the app or the website. Once registered, you can look for bikes near your location and reserve them with your smartphone.

You can use Call a Bike in over 70 German cities with only a single app. Click here to find out what cities those are.

Call a Bike has only extremely robust bikes with step-through frames, different gears, roller brakes and cargo racks. They are maintained regularly and checked for defects. The German consumer advocacy organisation Stiftung Warentest gives them top marks for safety. In Stuttgart and Hamburg, you can hire pedelecs and cargo pedelecs, as well.

Employees itching for greater flexibility when travelling on business, commuting to work or after clocking out for the day are increasingly choosing to cycle. Companies can help their employees along the way. Call a Bike for Business
