Why do we offer Free Test Rides for our Custom Bikes?
Feel what specs can't tell you. Experience our premium custom road bikes on a test ride. Lightweight, aerodynamic, and exceptionally comfortable, our bikes deliver exhilarating acceleration, precise handling, and maximum efficiency. Feel how every detail is engineered with uncompromising performance in mind, and discover a riding experience that sets a new benchmark.
No commitment, no pressure
Experience the lightness, stiffness and speed of a Vélobsessive road bike with zero obligation. If it's not the right fit, you leave with no hard feelings.
Feel what specs can't tell you
No brochure captures how a carbon frame accelerates out of a corner or how the cockpit feels after 30 minutes in the saddle. Your body knows before your brain does.
Combine it with a Bike Fitting
Book a bike fitting alongside your test ride and the bike will be precisely adjusted to your position before you even clip in. The most honest test possible.

"The Purple Air is an incredibly fast bike. For me, it’s a great opportunity to have a partner like Vélobsessive by my side supporting my sporting ambitions. What means a lot to me is knowing my bike is perfectly 1:1 tailored to me, so I don’t have to compromise."

“Whether you're a pro or just a hobby cyclist, you're in good hands with Thomas! Highly professional, personal, with attention to detail, and a relaxed atmosphere. It's so exciting to be able to feel and implement even the smallest adjustments to the bike. I can't wait for my next ride. Thanks, Thomas!”
Priska Baumann
Triathlete and IRONMAN Finisher
“A colleague and I booked the Dynamic bike fitting. Thomas took plenty of time for us, explained everything in detail, and gave us personalized advice. We would definitely book our fitting with Vélobsessive again. The price is very fair”
Samira Bombach
Road cyclist, Switzerland
"After the new adjustment, I can stay in the TT/Aero position for longer. And by longer, I mean 3+ hours! After adjusting the shoes, the pain in my feet is gone. Thank you for the service!"

Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any doubt that is not in the FAQs, contact us here
What should I bring to the test ride?
Your cycling shoes with cleats already attached, your usual cycling kit and shorts, and a helmet if you have one. Also, you must bring your ID to the test ride!
Can I choose which bike I want to ride?
Yes, completely. When you book your test ride you select the specific model you want to try — road bike, gravel bike or triathlon bike. If you're not sure which one suits you best, Thomas is happy to advise before you come in or contacting him now here.
Do I need to buy the bike after the test ride?
No. The test ride is completely free and there is zero obligation to purchase. You come, you ride, you decide — on your own terms and in your own time. If you want to talk about building a custom bike after the ride, Thomas will be there. If you need time to think, that's completely fine too.
Is the test ride suitable if I already own a road bike?
Absolutely. Many riders come for a test ride simply out of curiosity — to feel the difference between their current bike and a custom-built Vélobsessive. It's one of the most honest ways to understand what a properly fitted custom bike actually changes. No commitment required.
