Safety Over Everything

Great rides are safe rides, and Trek Travel provides the best gear when it comes to keeping you safe and seen on the road. From the most advanced helmet tech, disc brakes, and powerful Flare R lights to certified mechanics on every trip, you can enjoy the scenery without the worry. It’s safe to say, no other tour operator goes the extra mile like we do.

WaveCel Helmets

Trek Travel offers superior helmet technology to our guests. Helmets on trip feature WaveCel, Trek’s newest in advanced helmet impact protection that disrupts 30 years of accepted safety conventions.

Created by a team of doctors, researchers, and engineers, WaveCel protects your head and can help absorb the energy created by an angled impact. WaveCel has been shown in a recent study to be up to 48x more effective than traditional foam helmets in protecting your head from injuries caused by certain cycling accidents.*

*See Evaluation of a Novel Bicycle Helmet Concept in Oblique Impact Testing, Accident Analysis and Prevention 123 (2019) 58-65. www.trekbikes.com/what-is-wavecel. Based on reduction in rotational acceleration at impact (6.2 m/s at 45°) of head + neck model wearing traditional EPS foam helmet vs. helmet modified with WaveCel insert. Probability of injury in an actual accident depends on numerous factors, including nature of impact and individual health.”

Be Seen with Flare R

We make every ride even more safe by providing you with Bontrager Flare R lights. Flare R is ultra-lightweight, durable, and rechargeable, and it’s equipped with optics and flash patterns proven to be the most eye-catching for drivers. Most importantly, it’s the first tail light designed for daylight visibility, so you can be seen from over two kilometers day or night. Find it exclusively with Trek Travel.

 

 

Domane Disc, a Ride that Can’t be Beat

What do you get when you combine the lightweight stability and comfort of the Domane with the superior safety, high performance, and stopping power of disc brakes? The cycling vacation of a lifetime with the industry’s best bike along for the ride.

Why disc brakes you might ask? Disc brakes are the next level of safety and offer a whole new kind of reliability and stopping power. They provide more consistent, easier and precise braking, giving you the confidence to enjoy your favorite rides and descents without hand fatigue.
