E-Bike Rentals
Online reservations are open! Rentals begin May 4th, 2024.
The Details
– All bike rentals require a reservation.
– All bike rentals include a helmet, bike lock, and front and rear lights that power off the bike’s battery. Multi-day bike rentals come with a charger. We highly recommend renting a pannier (bike bag) with your rental for water, snacks, and layers.
– Pricing is based on starting your ride from Vermont Bike & Brew. We also rent bike racks (racks fit 2″ hitch receiver), and offer deliveries. Deliveries (includes bike delivery and pickup) within 45 minutes of Vermont Bike & Brew are $60 and can be selected at checkout.
– Riders must be at least 14 years old. Riders under 18 must be with a legal adult.
The Bikes
Stylish, comfortable, and up to the challenge, The Gazelle Ultimate C8 is the mainstay of our rental fleet. The step-thru frame allows for easy mounting and dismounting, an upright posture, and a great view of the scenery on your ride. An internally geared hub with a carbon belt drive makes for easy shifting with no chance of dropping your chain. Equipped with a Bosch ActiveLine Plus motor and 500Wh battery, this bike will get you there and back in record time.
The ultimate e-bike for Vermont adventures, the Haibike Trekking 5 comes equipped with front suspension, lights, a rear fender, a rear rack, and a kickstand. The 500Wh battery is great for longer gravel rides in the countryside and is ideal for commuting or cruising around on pavement. Waterproof panniers are available for $7/day (for water bottles, snacks, layers, etc.).

Did you love your e-bike rental?
We get it! Sometimes it is love at first sight and you might want to buy a bike like the one you just rode. That’s why we take the “try-to-buy” approach by allowing customers to apply up to $75 from the cost of their rental towards the purchase of a new electric bike!
Cancellation Policy

If you cancel your reservation 14 days in advance you will receive a full refund for the cost of your rental or tour. If you cancel your reservation with 7-13 days in advance you will receive a 50% credit. If you cancel your reservation fewer than 7 days in advance, you will not receive a refund or credit.

In the event that Vermont Bike & Brew is unable to offer a different start time and cancels your reservation due to weather, you will receive a full refund for the cost of your reservation.
