This is a fantastic concept for renting e-bikes. The pick-up and drop off instructions are clear and the bikes are in good condition.
There are several routes suggested that you can load into Google maps on your phone. We chose the #2 circuit which is suggested for 3 hours but we rented for 5 hours so we could stop to enjoy the scenery, wander around the villages, eat and have a few glasses of wine.
Ribeauvillé and Bergheim were our favorites, and of course you need to spend time in Riquewihr after you drop off your bikes.
It helps to be familiar with Google Maps for navigating as you cannot always count on seeing the little route signs along the way. It’s also important to be comfortable on an e-bike. The one assigned to me was significantly heavier than my personal one and might be difficult for someone who has never used one before.

A great choice if you are sensible and decide to tour Alsace by bicycle. Pick up and drop off were slick and all automated, prices were very good and the e-bikes were of excellent quality and just what we needed for some of the hills. We enjoyed our rides so much we booked an extra day and explored more. Routes provided were very good, but you can obviously follow any of the great cycle routes throughout the region. Simply the best way to see a range of countryside and towns in style!

Very easy booking process.
40€ for a full day rental of a modern e-bike is very fair.
Fast responding from the service mail/phone made the experience even better.
Great concept.
Would I use Le Vélo Libre again?
Without any doubt.

Rented 4 bikes at Riquewyr. Overall a good experience. Full self rental so don’t expect anybody on site. Bikes are of good quality but maintenance was lacking on mine: chain was very dirty and not properly lubed/greased - resulting in noisy speed changes. Saddles are somehow painful - as a regular road cyclist it was a surprise to me. Last thing: we ended up using the sign post on the road for cycle tracks to villages instead of the google maps links provided which sent us to D roads - too busy with cars.
