Book an e-bike test ride!

Test riding an e-bike is the best way to decide whether it's the right one for you. And you won't find better e-bike test riding conditions than at EBT!

We're right on Te Ara i Whiti (pink path) and the greater cycle network, so your test ride will all be without any cars. We recommend starting on the pink cycle path which is wide and flat and then riding Ian Mackinnon cycle paths for a hill test.

We have helmets you can use in store. Anyone you bring along is welcome to borrow an e-bike to keep you company on your test ride and it's no problem to try multiple bikes.

While we would be nothing but delighted to show you our e-bikes if you walk in unannounced, booking your test ride does have advantages. You'll get a chance to think about and communicate your aims ahead of your visit, which we will digest ahead of time and we'll be all that much more prepared for you!
