Enjoy your bike
Welcome to SWITCH UP, the subscription service that takes the hassle out of cycling and makes travelling around the city safe, easy, and stress-free. Our service is perfect for those who want a reliable and flexible way to get around without the hassle of owning and maintaining a push-bike or electric bike.
