When it comes to cyclists, the ability to transport their prized toy when heading off on adventures is often one of the most crucial decisions to make when purchasing a car.
Though many manufacturers claim to have some element of ‘lifestyle’ support, Skoda is definitely one of the leaders when it comes to providing machines that are dependable and capable for the enthusiastic cyclists out there. Here’s why…
Karoq — designed for cyclists
Skoda’s Karoq is one of the best cars on the market when it comes to dependability and versatility, and that’s no different in its ability to support the cyclist’s lifestyle. In fact, there’s a whole range of accessories for the car designed for that purpose — including a rear-mounted rack complete with brake lights, as well as roof racks for those looking to haul even more.
Skoda’s own bike range…
Cycling is so ingrained into the Skoda brand that it even offers a whole range of pushbikes of its own — and has done for over a century. It started off as a manufacturer of cycles in the early 1890s and has offered them ever since.
Recently, it revealed two new e-bikes — using electrification to make cycling almost effortless. Its 2019 range also included stylish cycles for the city, competition-focused road bikes and go-anywhere mountain bikes.
…with the outfit to match
Skoda doesn’t just offer its own bikes, but also a vast range of branded gear to boot. With jerseys, helmets, gloves, glasses and even leisurewear, you can rep your Skoda cycling affinity no matter the occasion.
Tour de France
With all this pedigree in cycling, it may come as no surprise that Skoda has a hand in the world’s most famous bike race — the Tour de France. The firm has partnered the event for 15 years now, providing support vehicles and mechanical assistance for riders.
