"Nice staff, but the e-bikes were quite old and so with a kind of turbo motor that was very restless. Prices are average for an e-bike. Child seats fine, but also outdated and on 1 the seat belt was out of adjustment. "

Edward Pronk About Miscellaneous:

"Neat service and system reservation works well . Cargo bikes were a bit disappointing ( price quality ) bikes were clumsy in practice and a bit dated . Battery pack also not best for trip of 45 km . ( 3 pieces needed) . Beautiful surroundings and friendly people though. "

"We were met by 2 girls who received us extremely friendly and enthusiastic. Everything was clearly explained and we were offered a wonderful cycling route which we gratefully accepted. Nice that there were toilets available. A next time we would so use the Veluwe Specialst again!"

"Very friendly staff "

Lourens Prikken About Electric Bicycles:

"Fine bike (for a rental bike), good range battery. Consider this a positive criticism: brakes and tires should be checked better before bikes are issued. Tools to fix e.g. stand not available. "

C.J.L. Tribe About Miscellaneous:

"Superb route received. The Mussel-Owl Forest Route. Staff member was extremely friendly and helpful. Equipment was not brand new, but functioned just fine. Did miss one junction though. This is number 78. At junction Doesburgse Molenweg with the railroad we read 60 and 7. And no 78. There must have been an 8 omitted. Because indeed 78 is meant there. Confirmed by consulting google streetview. Therefore resulted in a somewhat alternative continuation of the route. Honestly did not look at the sign very closely. Might have seen something of the 8 then. Did think there must be something wrong with the signage readable from the bike. "

Wendy van Wijk About Miscellaneous:

"Last Thursday we rented an elek bike and elek Bakfiets (Dutch cargo bike) for a trip across the veluwe with our dog. We were warmly welcomed and everything was well explained. What is very unfortunate is that the cargo bikes have no doors, very inconvenient for our dog of over 30 kg. Perhaps an idea to have half the cargo bikes with doors so people can choose. After only 1 junction we had a near accident with a touringcar so we cycled back to have everything checked and to recover from the serious shock of this accident through no fault of our own. Nevertheless we got back on our bikes and started our tour again. It was a nice trip, but the paths are a bit narrow for cargo bikes and oncoming traffic, so you regularly encounter irritated cyclists, unfortunately. The Bakfiets (Dutch cargo bike) cycled well, although it has little suspension in my opinion. They were very helpful in terms of how I wanted to secure my dog and we received a second battery, which we did not have to use. Despite the agony we went through at the beginning of our trip, it ended up being a beautiful day. Hopefully we can repeat this again except for the first part and then in a Bakfiets (Dutch cargo bike) with a door ;) Mvg Wendy van Wijk "

"They are friendly and helpful employees at the Veluwe specialist, this is definitely the 2nd time we have visited this establishment ."

Henk Blankestijn About Miscellaneous:

"My bike disappointed me , I had to ask myself before departure if my front brake could be adjusted, during the ride it turned out that right did not do anything at all. Rear tire was too soft or wheel not okay because in the corners not stable. Nice route but I prefer to ride a bike that is technically sound. Bikes seem a bit older and then regular maintenance is definitely needed."

Rene Bastiani About Miscellaneous:

"We enjoyed the ride around Garderen with our team. Too bad the front steps of the e shopper are rickety. Other than that, they ride fine!"

Harriet Summers About Miscellaneous:

"Super good and friendly service, neat explanation and good bikes..."

Charlotte van Tol About Miscellaneous:

8

"Inside front wheel e-bike was unreliable. Upon returning the bike, I described the malfunction in detail to an employee. His subsequent response was along the lines of waving it away, it came across to me that my report was not taken seriously or not taken seriously enough. I was lucky that I did not get stuck on the heath with a broken wheel-inside (we made a bike ride of 85km). With my report I obviously also wanted to avoid the risk that this might happen to a user after me. Otherwise, the staff was fine."

Tamara Stein About Electric Bicycles:

"Our route was not quite correct anymore (restaurants route 35km). Number 10 and 17 were hard to find in Ede/Bennekom due to works. We therefore looked on our phone how to cycle. Had a slightly more adventurous bike ride. I did not like the bikes very much. Didn't feel the support sometimes which made me feel like I was cycling on a regular bike (especially with a hill). "

Gabri Vethman About Miscellaneous:

"Friendly and helpful."

Rob Spijkers About Electric Bicycles:

"Great service and with a kindness you rarely experience anymore. What beautiful bike paths with beautiful views have been built in the Otterloo-Ede area. For this you can cancel your vacation to Tuscany."

Anke Keijzer About Electric Bicycles:

"We had a wonderful day of cycling. Had a flat tire on the way. Called Veluwe Specialist and in no time they came and brought another bike. Top! "

"The ebikes are greatly outdated , the front wheel drive very dangerous for older persons After so many years of use , time for new "

Heleen Beuzenberg About Miscellaneous:

"It was very busy at the check-in desk and there was only one employee to check in with. Took more than 45min before we were on the bike. Very unfortunate. "

Anita Boer About Electric Bicycles:

Jolanda Koster About Miscellaneous:

"Staff were very friendly and helpful. You can tell the bikes are used a lot. But otherwise good. "

Jovienne Smets About Miscellaneous:

"Very nice route, 46 km. Dog in Bakfiets (Dutch cargo bike)."

Edwin Heijdra About Miscellaneous:

8

"Bikes arranged fine. Choice of route to make when picking up. There you get one (map) with it. Eiglishly too sparse because along the way it could be along or disappointing and you would have to switch with bike route or stick one on."

Annemieke van Bruinessen About Electric Bicycles:

8

"Great that you rent e bikes, too bad they are a bit heavy bikes though, they react delayed when boosting the support. Just when you think it has no effect you shoot forward. Dangerous in loose sand and semi-sandy, pebbles, so you easily get into a skid. I say this because I rent e bikes here and there at least two or three times a month and have also been coming to you for years, therefore I can compare. And with these bikes I find it 'hard work', not relaxed riding. But I did make a beautiful trip. Garderen is a nice central starting point for versatile nature. And the guys who helped me on my way were nice and helpful. Sincerely. "

Brenda Broeren About Electric Bicycles:

8

"Arranged quickly. Staff super friendly. The bikes on the other hand are not in best condition like loose battery, no suspension and very hard saddles, but all in all had a nice bike ride"

Marliz van der Steenhoven About Electric Bicycles:

"We had a wonderful bike day, nice company and service, good electric bikes!!! We will definitely come back again. "

Lizanne van der Vlist About Electric Bicycles:

"Employee did explain briefly how the electric bike worked, but then didn't help adjust the saddle. It would be nice if an employee would help with this so that you can sit properly on your bike. In addition, the two electric bikes were adjusted differently from each other. One bike went much faster than the other while having the same setting and gear. This was a bit unfortunate since you want to ride together. In short: not very satisfied about both the bikes and the service and would certainly not rent a bike here again."

Inge van 't Hof About Electric Bicycles:

5

"Unfortunately on 1 of the bikes the battery rattled which was very annoying. Do not find it safe that when you stop at an intersection that you then have to put your support back first because otherwise your bike will shoot forward. With a branded bike you don't have this and I personally find it safer."

Marga Jaspers About Electric Bicycles:

"The bikes are somewhat dated...... the saddle is also quite stiff . I did not have a bike without defect until the 3rd bike try . It seems to me that for this day price the bikes will need replacing next year ...?! "

Caroline Lakerveld-Knobbe About Electric Bicycles:

"The two fietsrn were not of a best quality. Front wheel drive just did not adjust properly. Instructions received good that it was said that if you stand still you have to set it to 0 andets it runs away from you. Nice staff. Front tire inflated. Cycled 35 km beautiful surroundings. "

Alfrink About Miscellaneous:

"The bikes are of moderate quality. The bags rubbed against the spokes , so we rolled up the bags and put them under the speedbinders. It is also unfortunate that the huir ends at 5 p.m."

Nijenhuis About Miscellaneous:

"Bad bikes, electric bike constantly changing in support, one time heavy pedaling and then it flew forward again. Very dangerous! Brakes had to be pressed all the way down. Bikes are clearly worn out and in need of replacement. Had to pay 47 euros though. "

Stella Vlaswinkel About Miscellaneous:

8

"Rented two tandems and 1 electric bike. Route is on map with nodes actually even more convenient than via app. Despite the very hot weather it was good to do, lots of shade along the way. The tandem is really recommended, much more fun than e-chopper as far as we are concerned. "

Elisabeth Snel- Velzel About Electric Bicycles:

"We had a wonderful time cycling around Garderen. The first day we (apparently) missed a sign so we did not cycle the route as it was indicated. Too bad it also started to rain. The second day we also cycled around Garderen which was not pleasant for my husband in terms of crowds. Service and explanations are Top! "

Tribe About Electric Bicycles:

"Rented two eBikes. Very pleasantly helped in the store and excellent explanation on how to use the bikes. Delightful day cycling together in the Otterlo/Ede region. Did notice: 2 (at first sight) the same bikes, but the support of one bike was significantly stronger than the other bike. Especially uphill a big difference."

Melvin Timan About Miscellaneous:

Leonoor De Jong About Miscellaneous:

"I found it took quite a long time at the check-in desk because only 1 person was working and there was a big queue. Then the outside employee was not clear which bike was for us and spent another half hour trying to find and mount a child seat, while the bike was already ready for us. Waiting with 3 small children is then quite a challenge . Of course everyone did their best but wanted to give it away. Because of this we could only leave 3 quarters of an hour later than booked. Furthermore, bikes were super "

Winny Asselt About Electric Bicycles:

"Rented bikes here for second time. Like last time, liked it again. Nice staff and excellent instructions. Bikes slightly inferior quality. One bike had a loose battery, so there was a lot of rattling every time there was a bump in the road. For the latter we were helped very adequately, solved well, so excellent service! Next time we will rent our bikes here again!"

"*Have asked if there were dog carrier bikes. Was told yes, but was just for kids, had to lift a 35 kg golden retriever in and out every time. *Was just on the road we had to go back for another saddle, this one moved in all directions. To the front , back, left and right. Just bad. *The gear was also not right , almost have to go to the gym to get the gear in a lower position. Switching up sometimes worked , sometimes not *Also had to ask if the tires could be inflated, was not done *Had to call the store again during a stop to ask for the numbers for the lock, was not told when the bike was handed over. *The support stopped, even after replacing a 2nd battery provided. So rode about 7km without support. Can tell you not pleasant with a Bakfiets (Dutch cargo bike) and a dog of 35kg in it. *On return we got no money back or a part, but a voucher. Very nice if you leave the day after! All in all a VERY SLOW experience with the Veluwe specialist. will NOT RECOMMEND the store to others. Complaints are handled poorly with a voucher. "
