Bike rental Zürich
Bike rental in Zurich – flexible for one month or longer
SwitchBike is long-term rental, not hourly rental: your own bike for a month, a semester or longer. Maintenance, repairs and theft coverage are included.
From CHF 24.70/month · flexible from CHF 34.50/month
Long-term rental instead of daily rental
Daily and hourly rental makes sense for a day trip. But if you live, work or study in Zurich, you need a bike that is ready every morning — with no return time and no searching for a free station.
With SwitchBike you rent your bike monthly. It stays at your home, with your saddle, your keys and your two locks.

Bike sharing or daily rental

Exchange semester, internship, fixed-term contract or a move that is not final yet: buying a bike rarely pays off in those situations.
