Step-through E-Bike + helmet ($25) - these e-bikes are amazing for the rider who just wants to relax and not worry about the biking aspect. These pedal assist e-bikes are intuitive and comfy for urban riding. Our e-bikes have 3 different assisted levels and if you want an exercise you can turn off the pedal assist.
How it works?
- e-Bikes + helmet will be at our meeting location 151 8 Ave SW, Calgary, AB T2P 1M9 and dropped off at the same location after the tour.
- e-Bikes come with a complimentary helmet. Helmets do not have to be worn but we highly reccomend you do.
- e-Bikes will be locked up with our lock by one of our tour guides.
- Important** in the Order Details please note your height & weight so we can properly match you to a bike.
