TGV French domestic traffic » Travelling with a bicycle
A distinction is made between travelling with a packed, disassembled bicycle and an unpacked bicycle.
A bicycle packed in a special bicycle cover or case may be taken on any TGV. The maximum dimensions for this are: 120 x 90 cm (l x w). For more information, please see Conditions for bicycles as luggage below.
A limited number of TGV's also have a special bicycle coach for unpacked bicycles. These bicycle spaces cannot be booked through NS International. Please do so at SNCF.com. See What next with unpacked bicyclesbelow.
