What is a pumptrack?
A pumptrack is a bike track with humps that allow you to pump speed into your bike instead of pedaling.
The speed comes from you reducing the weight on the wheels when going uphill and increasing the weight on the wheels when going downhill. This way you can pump speed into the bike by bending/stretching your arms and legs at the right time.
Which bike is best?
A pumptrack can be used with all types of bikes, but the lighter and more cash the bike is, the easier it is to pump speed into the bike.
A BMX bike of approx. 7 kg is optimal to use, where a mountain bike with full suspension, large wheels and soft tires is more difficult to pump speed with, but all bikes can in principle be used.
See educational videos here.
Where can I try it?
We set up a 15 meter long Pumptrack in the Train Workshop.
Everyone – both children and adults – can try out this fun form of cycling.
When can I try?
The Pumptrack is open during the same time period as the Copenhagen Bike Show 2024.
See the schedule here.
How much does it cost to try?
It’s completely free to borrow a bike and helmet and try the Pumptrack.
All you need is a ticket to the Copenhagen Bike Show 2024.
Can you also try “regular” bikes?
Surrounding the Pumptrack is the large indoor test track where you can try out the many models offered by the exhibitors.
There are e-bikes, cargo bikes, city bikes, mtb, gravel and more.
