Hi! Trying to plan a MTB adventure in Barcelona, Spain. Can anyone recommend a good bike rental place where to get a decent MTB bike. (either good hardtail or full suspension bike). And would you recommend hardtail or full-suspension for trails around Barcelona. First time in Spain, looking forward to equip correctly for nice day rides with friends. Thanks!

    agree take a bus over to Girona and there are many places to rent all kinds of bikes. I went in April and did a 5-6 day loop from Girona on the Pirinexus Loop.....really enjoyed it. Good luck.

    hey! do not expect to find fancy bikes for rental in Barcelona. This one has some reputation https://www.terrabiketours.com/bike-rental/barcelona/mountain/ For fancier bikes you might want to head to Girona, 1 hour by train. The tour and rental scene is bigger but focus on road and gravel. Check https://www.eatsleepcycle.com/bike-rental-girona/ For trails, Collserola, Serra Marina, Garraf, nearby and Montseny. Have fun!
