Finibikes is our bicycle shop and you are always welcome! You can buy, rent and repair your bike in a friendly and knowledgeable way. The perfect way to explore the unspoilt nature in Finikounda and the rest of Peloponnese! We can easily visit the nearby beaches and historical places with a regural holland type or an e-bike. Trekking and mountain bikes are also available. Furthermore included, we provide helmets, locks, lights and bicycles with a child seat.
After some 4,000 miles (6,400 km) of hard use, our British e-bikes were ready for some repairs and a major service. Fortunately we found Finibikes, right where we were staying in the small fishing port of Finikounda in the far southwest of the Peloponnese. Owners Nikos and Julie are ardent, committed and expert in all aspects of cycling, as well as operating as a tourist office for cyclists and, if required, guides. They sell, build, hire, service and repair every kind of bicycle for every kind of cyclist. Nikos is a highly skilled and knowledgeable mechanic, equipped to handle any problem from a puncture to servicing our hydraulic disk brakes, computer-controlled electric motor and electronically-shifted hub gears. A wheel that wobbled after earlier emergency replacement of a broken spoke, disk brake pads almost worn down to the metal, misaligned hub gears and air-filled hydraulic brake fluid were soon corrected. Equally impressive, with his laptop Nikos updated firmware and performed error checks on our bicycles’ Shimano computers
