So I used a coupon via Big bus tour and paid extra to rent an electric bike for 2 hours instead of an hour free with the coupon. I wasn’t blown away. It was fine but the vibe was off maybe because I used a coupon. Idk but I wouldn’t use them again especially with so many other options. Fun experience riding across the Golden Gate Bridge though and no equipment issues other than slightly squeaky brakes.

Fantastic service. Bikes were in great condition and easy to use. Operation was explained clearly with a quick test ride before we left. A short video to explain road rules was available as non locals. Recommend e-bikes even if you’re fit to really enjoy the experience. We intended to drop the bikes and ferry back but rode back as we loved it so much.
Ebikes are the best! We explored the city with ease.
As a person who loves to bicycle, I really appreciate it very nice Bike. It was well tuned annd operated perfectly. The check-in and checkout was seamless and was a full day. had plenty of time to explore. Best bike rental experience ever.
Awesome to hear!
Great explanation of how to use the bikes and when one of us decided to rent a less powerful option, we received a refund for the difference.
Hi, thanks so much, glad we were able to accommodate you!
Truly perfect experience. Very helpful and friendly staff, fast delivery, very fast return to the location near Ghirardelli Square. We rented 10 very nice e-bikes, excellent maintenance and practical to use. The tour of the Golden Gate Bridge and some areas of San Francisco was truly pleasant. Just be careful because at the location near Pier 39 you cannot return all e-bikes, it is better to inquire first.
Ottimo, grazie! So glad your group of 10 enjoyed your e-bike ride with us.
Top-notch check-in and check-out... the staff was helpful and clear in their explanations... bikes were okay and the location was perfect. Recommended
Grazie!
Beautiful bikes. It felt like having a moped because they went so fast. Very fast and impeccable pickup service. Really great. I don't know how I would have managed to visit San Francisco and the Golden Gate without these bicycles!
Grazie!
Bike was in excellent condition, check in was fast - but, for me anyway (as someone who had not experienced an e-bike previously), was too fast. The receptionist rushed through the bike features and I was thoroughly unprepared for the ride. Consequently at the steep ramp just prior to the bridge, I was unable to pedal and had to haul the heavy bike up the hill. He had omitted to tell me how the battery level affected the input from the pedals. As I say, I was impressed with the standard of the bike and, once i had figured out how the bike worked, really enjoyed the ride, the time in Sausalito and the ferry back. So I would recommend the service but just make sure you know how an electric bike works before you go!
Rienne, thanks for your great recommendation, we're glad you enjoyed your e-bike ride with us. Your feedback is very helpful here as we are experiencing a lot of first time electric bike riders currently, it is a good reminder to make sure everyone is clear about the instructions for riding e-bikes. Thank you!
I rented an electric bicycle. The rear brake squeaked. It was not the newest, but the service was quite good.
Danke!
