which e-bikes for a hire bike business

[Richard Haggerty]

Hi we have a small B&B in North wales in a beautiful but very hilly area we are thinking of starting an hire e bike business as some of our guests had requests a bike hire but then cannot cope with the hills very well. Has anyone any suggestion on types of bikes to buy?

How many do you want and your budget ? As they are mainly for guests to get you going I would have a look at the regular contributers on here like Woosh bikes, Cyclezee or Kudos to start with, opt for a unisex step thru style to suit all or if buying a few go for crossbar as well.

You could get feedback and advice from Peak Park Cycle Hire Centres where they have been hiring (our) bikes for a few years. Talk to Jake at Parsley Hay Bike Hire.

talk to Hatti @ Woosh. She may let you have her bikes for free in exchange of showing them to her customers.
