E-Bike Fleet and Rental
We have a fleet of 10 high-quality E-mountain bikes. Trained bike guides and mechanics will take care about cyclists and gear. While you enjoy riding, we are looking after your luggage, refreshments and any other needs that might arise. That's why most of our bike tours are accompanied by support vehicles - especially in this case. E-Bikes need special care, someone to help with charging the batteries and to make sure everything works well for the next day of your trip.
Beside multi day trips usually outside of the capital, we also offer bike rental service in Addis Ababa. Just contact us if you need a bike to go around town or the hills.
Please consider that compared to normal MTBs riding E-Bikes involves some more risks of accidents. Riding speed sometimes is notably higher and unexperienced riders find it more challenging to keep full control over the the bike. Therefore, we strongly suggest maximum caution and the attendance of an E-Bike course (which we offer) prior your first E-Bike adventure.
