E-Bike Bay Explorer

📍 Bay Bikes, Melrose Street, Sandringham VIC, Australia

1. Opening Hours: Tuesday to Sunday 10am to 5.30pm
2. What is an E-Bike: There are a lot of different E-bikes available, we exclusively use the DiroDi Rover fat tyre bike for our rentals, because they have the looks and the specs. It’s very similar to riding a standard bicycle except you can add as much assistance from the motor (250W) as you want. You do this simply by changing the levels from 1 to 6 with a +/- button on the handlebar of the bike. You still have to pedal to get moving. Our bikes have a throttle as well, it’s a helping aid to start riding and works up to 6 km/h.
3. Are E-Bikes suitable for beginners: Definitely, in fact many beginners find e-bikes easier and safer to ride as they require less effort to pedal up hill. If you are unsure, let our friendly staff know and we will make sure to take some time to get you comfortable with the bike in a quiet and safe environment before you go on your ride.
4. How fast do E-Bikes go: The Rover is powered by a 250 watt motor and has a torque of 55 N.m for great hill climbing power, and is able to reach the speed of 25 km/h (legal assisted max speed).
5. What is included in the rental: When you pick up your bike, it will come with everything you need to start riding: a battery, helmet(s), lock, phone holder, drink bottle holder and a storage basket. And of course, we can provide you with tips & insights on where to go and we will give you instructions on how to operate the E-bike.
