Voted #1 E Bikes in Lake Tahoe, CA

step-thru max

$60 per Day

The step thru max is an excellent option for semi-experienced riders looking for a bike that can keep up all day. The torque sensing mid drive motor is extremely efficient, and gives the bike a maximum range of 45+ miles! This bike can’t be beat for all day rides with steep hills. Riders not used to riding bikes with gears should consider the Step-Thru Pro or Step-Thru Fat Tire instead.

The ebike we love at South Lake E Bikes

step-thru pro

$50 per Day

The Step-Thru Pro is a great choice for any rider on any trail. The 26 inch tires roll smoothly on pavement and provide good grip on basic dirt trails. The suspension fork keeps you comfortable, and the hydraulic disc brakes provide reliable stopping power. This bike is similar to the Step-thru max, but uses a more basic hub motor that makes the bike more beginner friendly. Range: 25-35 miles.

step thru pro ebike

Step-Thru FaT Tire

$60 per Day

The Step Thru Fat Tire, designed for style, convenience, and fun. With its step-thru frame, mounting and dismounting are a breeze, perfect for riders of all levels. This is our most beginner friendly bike and is the only bike that will fit a rider slightly under 5' tall. The fat tires ensure a smooth and stable ride, whether you're on the trails of Tahoe or on the street. Experience the freedom of riding with this one! Range: 25-35 miles.

Fat Tire

$70 per Day

Our fat tire E-bikes are made for one thing… Fun! These bikes have a 48 volt 1000 watt motor that gives them twice as much power as most of our other bikes. The 4 inch wide tires make it a smooth and comfortable ride, and the hydraulic disc brakes help the bike stop on a dime. There is also room for two on the extra long seat! These bikes are perfect for cruising around Tahoe. Average range is about 25 miles. Not recommended for extra long rides with big hills.

we rented from South Lake E-Bikes on 9/29 to help show our Louisiana friends all Lake Tahoe has to offer. The workers who helped us gave us a great track to follow to sight see so many spots! The bikes worked awesome and were so easy to use! Definitely will be back!

Best e-bike rental in the South Lake area! The owner, Greg, was super friendly and helpful. The staff as well, giving us the half-off after 3pm deal a little before 3pm, which was well appreciated! Get your e-bike here and enjoy all the local bike paths, views, and shops!

Today I had the pleasure of going to South Lake E Bikes to go around the city with my family on vacation. I was completely impressed by the quality of the bikes, the service of the staff, and the transparency of the transaction. We got to meet the owner, Greg, who took care of us incredibly well and made our family have a one-of-a-kind experience while we visited Lake Tahoe. A must-go destination that I recommend 10/10 times for anyone looking for some fun on bikes! Thank you South Lake E bikes!

This shop is the place I go as a local. I’ve rented here several times when friends visit and have nothing but good things to say. Andre runs the shop with professionalism that I personally have not seen in other shops around Tahoe. The bikes are great and well maintained, and the staff is extremely helpful.

I recently rented from South Lake E-Bike while at Lake Tahoe and had an amazing experience. The staff at the rental location was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. They provided excellent customer service and were able to answer all of my questions about the bikes and the best places to explore in the area. The bikes themselves were top-notch and allowed me to easily navigate through the South Lake Tahoe area. The entire experience was fantastic and I had a great time exploring the area on the E-Bike. Additionally, the rental shop provided great advice on where to go and what trails to follow, which made the day even more enjoyable. If you're looking for the best electric bike rental in the South Lake Tahoe area, I highly recommend checking out South Lake E-Bikes.

You know im a big guy and i dont get to ride every day, but with E bikes i can pedal as hard or as easy as I desire. The customer service and the equipment were great at South Lake E Bikes. We took our friends to Fallen Leaf , Glen Ellen Falls and sll the beaches on that side of the lake. We could have gone further because we had 88% battery life when we turned in our bikes! Amazing time for sure!

South Lake E-bikes is THE place to go to rent a bike while in Lake Tahoe. Logan was so friendly and efficient in helping us select the right bike for our ride, and in no time at all we were off riding on the many beautiful trails in the area, seeing the lake, forests, and waterfalls. We highly recommend coming here!

Three summers ago, I visited South Lake Tahoe for the first time and rented an ebike from this shop. It was my first time riding an ebike and it was by far the highlight of my trip! I rode from the shop to the Fallen Leaf campground and back. It was soooo much fun! It was the beginning of my love affair with e-bikes! I will never forget it.I will also never forget the shop owners. They were so knowledgeable and passionate about e-bikes.In fact, when I decided to purchase my first e-bikes, I reached out to the shop for pointers on what to look for in a quality bike. Their maintenance guy gave me some great tips! I’m now the proud owner of two great e-bikes which we thoroughly enjoy as a family!Thank you guys for doing what you do!!! Keep going!!! You are providing an exceptional service!

The best e-bike shop! A group of 3 of us visited from Mass/NH and booked 3 Fat Tire bikes for 2 days. They were AWESOME!! We spent all day both days on them, the batteries lasted all day, it allowed us to explore so many places and trails. When it was time to return them we called to extend our rental, we ended up keeping the bikes for 5 days. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I’ve booked 2 group outings and it continues to be the highlight of my Tahoe trips. You can tell Greg and team care about their customers and creates a fun and safe experience. Booking for a group was very easy to do through their site and the team walked us through what to expect. When we arrived, Greg gave us a rundown of how to operate the bikes and off we went!For one of our trips, Greg graciously took us on a riding tour to see the incredible views of Lake Tahoe. We had so much from learning about the area and discovering beautiful stops that would’ve been very difficult to get to without an e-bike. My friends and coworkers could not stop raving about how much fun they had. Rent a bike and prepare to have a great time.Tips: bring sunscreen, water bottle and close toed shoes.

My sister and I wanted to rent some ebikes and hit the trails (which are super close to this place). I’m big on safety, and I was happy to see that their bikes are in great condition. They’re easy to ride, and Logan was super helpful in getting us situated on the right bikes quickly so we could enjoy the day on the trails. Prices are reasonable, too. Check this place out, you’ll like it!
