What is an Electric Bike?
Electric bikes also known as “E-Bikes” assist the ride with the use of a small electric motor. There are a variety of styles of electric bikes. Some use hub motors and others use mid-drive motors at the cranks. Electric bikes are divided into 3 classes. We use class 1 eclectic bikes which are defined as a bike that is pedal assist only with no throttle and a maximum assist speed of 20 mph. If you are interested in a throttle-style electric bicycle you will need to look for a class 2 electric bike.
We only use Class 1 no throttle electric bikes in our rental fleet!
What kind of bikes do you rent?
We offer 2 styles of bikes; Hybrid and Electric-Assist. Hybrid bikes are not electric. They are upright bikes with flat bars for road use with a wider tire than a traditional road bike. Electric-Assist bikes require you to pedal while the electric motor assists you. We have found over the past several years that most visitors are happiest with the Electric-Assist Bikes.
