In early March, we launched five electric pedal-assist bikes and riders have been telling us how much they love them since. Due to their popularity twenty more electric pedal assist bikes, or e-bikes, will be available to riders starting today. According to our data, 19% of all trips over the past six months were taken with these ride boosting bikes. The electric pedal-assist helps riders as they pedal up to 17mph, perfect for the longer recreational rides our BikeLNK riders have been taking now that all pass types come with unlimited 1-hour trips.
Starting today, there will be twenty more electric pedal-assist bikes for you to enjoy. Allo sponsored the original five e-bikes and will be sponsoring eight additional e-bikes. These bikes are as quick as the lighting fast fiber Allo provides to their customers. Twelve e-bikes are available for sponsorship, those interested in sponsoring the new bikes can check out our Sponsorship Page.
As always, we suggest using the BCycle App to locate the e-bikes which are shown with a little lightning bolt symbol on the station icon. There is no additional cost to use an e-bike, you just need a valid BikeLNK pass. To get the assist, all you need to do is turn on the bike with a button located on the left-side of the handlebars over the display screen. Once you start pedaling, the electric-assist will match the your power to make biking a breeze.
