Do I need to build additional facilities to accommodate ebikes?
Ebikes have the same dimensions as regular bicycles, so the same facilities can be used. Ebikes tend to be somewhat heavier than normal bikes, especially the bigger bikes like family/cargo ebikes. For that reason, we recommend horizontal parking/storage to provide userfriendly options for ebike riders.
Since the ebikes are of high value, we highly recommend secure bicycle parking facilities. Providing power outlets to charge ebikes helps to show your commitment, but is not required. Ebike batteries do not need charging that often (depending on model and use, a single charge will get you a range between 40-150km), and can be charged from any regular power outlet using the charger that is supplied with the bike. On almost all bikes, the battery can be easily removed to charge it away from the bike. Please contact us via the contact page to discuss further.
