EasyFiets in general

We’re all about hassle-free and sustainable mobility. We make cycling more fun and easy, so everyone in the city can hop on their bike with a smile. No worries about maintenance — just pure riding pleasure, every day.

Our lease bikes are extra special: they come from local waste streams and get a second life with us. This way, we contribute not only to a circular economy but also to a cleaner city.

And renting or leasing a bike? We keep it simple and friendly, with a wide selection, clear terms, and a flexible return policy. Plus, we create jobs for everyone who shares a passion for our wonderful craft. Together, we make the city a little happier and a lot greener!

Routes and tours

The routes we made go through Leiden, to Katwijk (beach), through the Bulb region (Keukenhof), through Meijendel (The Hague) and along the Kaag.

Our routes use the Dutch junction point network. This is a connected grid of cycling routes using numbers to indicate where to go. If you are going to junciton 5 you follow the green and white signs saying 5 until you reach it. When you get there you go to 11 for example. You continue this until you have finished the whole route.

Using the Fietsnetwerk app you can easily follow the route on your phone and see where you are on the map.

Repairs

We aim to have your bike repaired within 1 week. This depends on our workload and the availability of parts. In the meantime, you’ll receive a loan bike, so you can stay mobile.

Electric bikes. We offer the convenience of an E-bike without the risks and hassle. We select the bike with which you can cycle for many years to come. Adjust it you your needs and let us take care of it.
