Battery Hire

Description

EBT offers hire of e-bike batteries for Bosch, Shimano and eZee equipped ebikes. Ideal for travelers who were unable to bring their e-bike battery with them or locals wanting to tackle an adventure ride with an additional battery.

Bookings are essential and we need specific details of the battery’s model/part number. This is generally written on the battery itself. Send us a photo of the battery with all its model/part numbers if you are not sure.

The batteries we rent out will be the ‘naked’ battery only – no third party covers, spacers, handles etc available for hire. This means for some e-bikes such as Riese and Muller, your battery (well, our battery) will be a little more exposed to the elements. However, in other cases it simply won’t fit in your bike unless you transfer over the auxiliary bits from your battery to ours. The Trek RIB system is one such example of this. You will need to take all those bits off and bring them with you, to fit to our hire battery. Or if you are bringing your battery and renting ours as an extra one, you’ll need to move all those parts over each time you swap batteries. Not ideal, but as one customer put it – “it’s easier than riding for half the day without power!”

Price is based on the battery being picked up from and dropped back to our store in Auckland (open Mon-Sat, closed Sundays and public holidays). Hire starts from when it’s picked up until it is returned.

Please choose the option you need and in the order notes specify your pick up and drop off days and exactly which battery you require. Please also let us know the make and model of your bike.

Hire does not include a charger, please bring your own. If that is not possible, we can offer a charger for $20/month or part thereof (eg $20 even just for the weekend).
