Bicycle facilities in Sint-Niklaas
Campus Sint-Niklaas is easily accessible by bike, whether you are cycling from home or parking your bike at the station.
Rent a bike
On Sint-Niklaas campus, you can rent a bike for a student-friendly price. Consult here an example of the bicycle contract.
At STUVO you can rent a bike for €30 per semester or €50 for an entire academic year (deposit is €100).
Our bikes are given a full service every summer, so that they can be used again by students at the beginning of the academic year. Reserve your bike by contacting Els by mail: els.vaneetvelt@odisee.be.

Repair your bike (yourself)
Technical problem?
- You can repair your bike yourself in our underground bicycle park. Hang it up at eye level on the bike repair pole which has basic tools. This way, you can easily access all parts of your bike.
- At De Fietspunt at the station, there is a vending machine with bicycle lights, rain clothing, fluorescent vests, bells, inner tubes, etc.
If you are unable to repair it yourself, you can go to the bicycle repair point De Versnelling at the station. Opening hours: all weekdays from 7.00 to 19.00. The repair service is a service to help stranded bikers so they can get home by bike safely. These are mainly minor repairs, such as mending a puncture, repairing a light or chain... For major repairs, employees at De Fietspunt will refer you to the traditional bicycle repair shop
