Looking to go further with your ride? Our pedal-assist technology kicks in automatically once you start pedaling, so you can explore the city without breaking a sweat.
These ebikes feature a motor on the rear of your bike, brakes on the front of each handlebar along with a bell on the left side, and a consistent, single-speed so there's no need to adjust the gearing.
Just look for the ⚡️symbol in your app to indicate an ebike is available at a station near you. You'll also be able to see the battery level of ebikes in the app so you can best plan your ride.
When you are ready to dock the bike, check the app for nearby stations with available docks. Slide the bike into an open dock, and wait for a green light on the dock to make sure the bike is docked correctly.
Annual members will pay $0.10/minute for ebikes. Non-members will pay $0.25/minute. Income-Eligible Program members will pay $0.07/minute.
All per minute ride prices are rounded up to the nearest minute. Please note that riding an ebike will incur extra fees, regardless of your membership or pass type.
In instances where there are no classic bikes at a station, riders can rent one of our ebikes in “classic mode.” This means that you can rent this ebike for no extra charge, but there will be little to no e-assist for the ride.
To make this choice, you’ll see a screen after scanning the QR code that allows you to choose between riding with full assist or riding with low assist. You can set your Pedal Assist Preference in your app by going to Profile > Bike pedal assist preference. You may also see a checkbox in the app asking if you would like to save your pedal assist preference on future rides. If unlocking with a bike key instead of the app, you can set your preference by logging into your account on a web browser.
