How to get a Bike in Amsterdam - Everything you NEED TO KNOW!
Today's video will tell you everything you need to know about bikes in Amsterdam, including the best way to get a bike in Amsterdam. Starting with a brief history, all the different ways to acquire a bike, and some bike safety tips while in the city, including how not to get your bike stolen!
History of bikes in Amsterdam
Today there are more bikes in Amsterdam than people, but it almost wasn't this way. Between the '60s & '70s, the number of cars in the city quadrupled. City planners and engineers proposed multiple solutions to make Amsterdam more car-friendly, such as leveling buildings & filling in the infamous canals. Unsurprisingly there was significant opposition. Dutch road fatalities peaked in the '70s, triggering multiple protest groups to demand putting the breaks on cars, and the pedal to the bicycle. The government was forced to implement plans to make the city more appealing to cyclists with no other option.
Learn more about the history of bikes in Amsterdam here:
Renting a bike
Now that you know a brief history of how Amsterdam bike culture came to be, let's talk about acquiring yourself one of these two-wheeled racers. When you walk out of Central Station, you'll see a plethora of bike rental facilities. Most of these places will rent out bikes for around €8-€10/day, which is perfect for short stays. If you are plan on staying for longer than a couple of days, it might sense to purchase a bike which we'll talk about shortly, or rent one from a long-term facility such as Swapfiets. Swapfiets is the most popular long-term bike rental company in Amsterdam, and it's no surprise with bikes starting at just €17/month +€20 deposit. Although a month is the shortest timeframe you can rent a bike, if you're staying a week or two, it could still make sense to get the bike and return it early. There are even some electric bikes that I highly recommend if you are feeling lazy and have a couple extra dollars to spend!
Buying a bike
Another option if you're planning on staying more than a couple of days is to buy a second-hand bike; I'd recommend walking over to the Waterlooplein Market, about a 15-minute walk from central. This local market has good deals on an assortment of goods, most importantly bikes! Walk down this market to find dozens of vans selling hundreds of bikes! You should attempt to negotiate with these vendors, but some have set prices and will not budge from them. The cost of second-hand bikes will vary but should be around €50-€200.
Buying a sketchy bike
There's also an alternative way to buy a bike that I can not endorse or recommend, but most locals have used this method a time or two in their lives, so we are going to talk about it. We call this method the hobo bike, this is a bike you purchase from a hobo on the street. Usually, you can pick one of these up for €10-€30, but be advised they usually are stolen and could come with legal consequences, which is why I do not recommend or endorse using this method.
Safety
Regardless of how you acquire your bike, you need to be aware that Amsterdam is the bike theft capital of the world. Approximately 150-200 bicycles are stolen per day; with that being said, you need to make sure to lock your bike to a stationary object such as a pole or bike rack. Some bikes have tire locks that will lock the tire in place; while this will deter most opportunity theft, if you plan on being away for more than a couple of minutes, I would highly advise against relying on this method and make sure you chain your bike to a bike rack! If you rent a bike, companies will have policies for what to do if/when your bike is stolen. If you choose to use Swapfiet, they charge you a deductible ranging from €40-€200, depending on the bike type.
You will also notice that no one wears helmets while riding bikes. This is because Amsterdam is one of the safest cities in the world to cycle in; research shows a direct correlation between the number of cycles on the road and the number of accidents. Since so many bikes are on the road, cars/trams/people are forced to be extra aware and watch for cyclists. Still, be cautious while riding, and make sure to let other riders know where you are going by signaling with your hand before turning.

Although, Amsterdam doesn't top the list of Fietsstad comparing to other cycling dutch cities such as Den Haag, Almere and Eindhoven; you can hardly imagine passing through center of the city without having to deal with the swarm of cyclists. In this video, I'm probing through the inner ring of Amsterdam on my rusty bike.
