Along with our golf cart rentals, we have recently begun offering EBike rentals – electric bicycles you can ride over all kinds of terrain. Equipped with powerful motors and high-capacity batteries, these bikes can take you anywhere you want to go, whether it’s a daily commute to work, a weekend ride with friends, or a scenic tour of your favorite local landmarks. Our EBikes are some of the most affordable and reliable electric bicycles available in south Florida, with sales and rentals of multiple different types of bike, such as bikes with large or small tires, and bikes that fold up for easy storage and transport. Many EBikes can reach speeds of up to 28mph, and can be ridden on public roads and off-road for environmental hikes.
EBikes are incredibly popular at the moment – in 2021, there were more electric bike sales then electric car sales in the United States. Affordable with a variety of benefits including potential health improvements, increased speed and distance over a standard bike, and no environmental or health damage from harmful emissions, EBikes continue to gain popularity and presence on many roads.
Types of EBike Rentals we offer include:
City EBikes | Fat Tire EBikes |
Foldable EBikes | Mountain EBikes | Beach EBikes |

How An EBike Works
An electric bicycle functions very similarly to a traditional bicycle, with the addition of several electronic parts such as a motor, battery, and controller, to assist in riding long distances and up hills. The electronic components of an EBike aren’t there to completely replace human power, since pedaling is still required, but when using the pedal assist option, riders can have an easier time with uphill climbs and travelling over rough, off-road terrain. Some brands of EBikes can also fold up for effortless storage and transport, making them easy to bring on a camping trip or vacation.
Benefits Of EBike Rentals
Increased Speed And Distance
On a full charge, some electric bikes can travel up to 20-60 miles, and depending on the brand, can reach a maximum speed of approximately 28mph. Outside of public roads, taking an electric bike on an off-road trail adventure instead of hiking can get riders much further than they would just walking, and can easily travel over rough terrain like gravel and dirt roads without losing any smoothness.
Physical Health Benefits
When riding a bike, the main muscles used are the hamstrings and quadriceps in the thighs, as well as the calf and glute muscles. A traditional bicycle is already a great leg workout, but an EBike has the added benefit of the pedal assist for beginner riders, a feature that can be turned down or off when more strength is built over time.
Regular exercise has a multitude of health benefits, and research has shown that using an electric bike is a good form of cardio – over time, this could improve circulation, as well as heart and lung health, reducing the risk of heart conditions later in life. It may also help to boost metabolism, allowing riders to maintain a healthy weight, which in turn can reduce stress on joints. Since pedal assist can be adjusted depending on the level the rider wants, EBikes can also help to build endurance.
Environmentally Friendly
As an electric vehicle, EBikes give off no harmful emissions that cause damage to the environment, leaving a minimal carbon footprint, and as they are light weight, they also cause less damage to the terrain they traverse. Not only does this make them good for roads, as they won’t cause as much wear and tear as a car, but also for off-road trail riding, where they won’t tear up grass and foliage as much as some heavier vehicles might. EBikes are also quiet, reducing the noise pollution that cars can cause.
Assistance With Terrain
The pedal assist feature of electric bicycles is great for helping with riding up hills or over rougher terrain, perfect for mountain biking and traversing the rocky, dirt roads of hiking trails. The EBikes with the larger, thicker tires can ride over grass, gravel, and other uneven surfaces without compromising the smoothness and comfort of the ride.
Save Money On Transportation
Biking can already save money on transportation, such as the cost of gas for cars or tickets for public transportation, but for people who need to travel further for work, shopping, or anything else, a traditional bike isn’t always an option. With an EBike, the added speed and distance range can bring riders much further in less time than a traditional bike, with the pedal assist making it much less of an effort to ride there.
