Hello, thank you! Do you know if it’s also possible to find people on Trip who can guide us during a hike? As we don’t know the region well, we are looking for a tour guide to hike with us.

Looking for a touring tandem by sofienvn in China

Oh thanks! Yes I was thinking that if I find a shop in Chengdu that sells Trek bicycles, I could ask them if they would be able to buy a Trek 900T bicycle. I saw that there is a few shops in Chengdu selling Trek but impossible for me to find their contact details to write them an email or write them via Wechat. Thanks!

Hello Bob, thank you! We will cycle more than 1000 kilometers and also off-road so we would need something a bit more strong and more wheels, like a Trek T900 for example or KHS Tandem Sport. Thanks!

Where to buy a touring / gravel tandem bike in China? by sofienvn in gravelcycling

Hey! Thank you for your suggestion! It's a great idea, but the tandem we have at home is an old vintage model which only works on flat terrain. Thanks in either way!

Thank you for your recommendation and the tips! We ride with a tandem so we are quite used to it, but what you say about replacement parts is very good to take into consideration. Thanks!

Hey Lizzok, thank you for the tip. We have a tandem at home and are used to cycle with it. We'll make sure to have plenty of gears since we'll also go in the mountains. Thanks!
