MTB for rent

[Stafref]

Hello,sorry for the english,but my german is not the best

So,I'm from Bulgaria and i'm in Zurich for 2/3 weeks by relatives.MTBiking is my hobby and Switzerland is sure a great place for mountainbiking.
My question is where can i rent a MTB(not some kind of city bike or 5years old mtb)for a day to explore the trails around Zurich?What would be the price?
It would be also great if someone is free in the weekend to ride with me and show me if there are interesting trails around

P.S: You can answer also in Deutsch,i can have no problems with understanding,but better not talk

I saw that,but.....i don't actually need a guider and i don't want to pay so much for biking...with these money i would better upgrade my bike
I ask where can i rent a bike for a reasonable money and if there is someone who wants to make a short trip in his freetime i would join with pleasure...

Feel free to meet this guys. Im sure they like to show you some trails around Zurich.

To rent a bike:

I have no idea where to get a bike with i bit of quality. i would go into the next bike shop to ask for bikes or for more information.

Be honest: Thats not expensive at all
I can't give you a bike, but maybe a little guided tour

If you or your relatives know an ETH or University student/employee, then he or she could rent a bike (full suspension) for only ~ Sfr. 10.--/day

There are also some shops around Zurich that rent bikes, but it's a lot more expensive.

Good luck.

@vodoo: for somethnig like that i'm talking about I don't even need a full suspension,but a good front suspension and brakes are a need! I don't know people from the university,but maybe i could figure it out somehow...

@AmmuNation: I know that it's not really a big amount of money for Switzerland,but i don't get my money in Switzerland and i prefer to spend them on something else actually...

I found out,that on the ZuerriRollt stations there are 1/2 Mountainbikes,that actually do the job for walking around the city.

Hope you liked them - they are from us.

Did you go for the city bike or the MTB?

Translated from swissish to english:
"Thats cheap crap, go get another bike"
just kidding...

Thought you were searching for a nice fully or something else, complete XT (or XTR ), FOX suspension etc.

I want to go to Utliberg,will this bike take me there

Will your legs take you up there? When you're there, go and try the "Uetliberg-Biketrail". Sometimes a little bit steep, but not impossible. Easy to find it.

I was searching for something that could ride smoothly and savely.
Ofcourse,i took the MTB,i have posted a photo
This bikes are sure not so good,but for cycling around they do the job.

I think i will get the easyway to Uetliberg,with the S10! Should i buy a special ticket to get the bike with me?
About the biketrail from Uetliberg,i don't think it would be a pleasure for me to ride down with the MTB from ZuerriRollt
