Starling Bank e-bikes offer a fantastic way to enjoy all the benefits of cycling with an extra boost. They make pedalling easier, helping you tackle hills and longer distances without breaking a sweat. With electric assistance, you can get around faster, arrive less tired, and enjoy a smoother, more comfortable ride every time.



​Getting Started with the Starling Bank E-Bike

The Starling Bank e-bike is a pedal-assist bike, which means it helps you as you pedal, making your ride easier and quicker. Whether you’re commuting, running errands, or exploring, the e-bike gives you a boost to get there with less effort.

You can hire a Starling Bank e-bike using the same app and account you use for standard pedal bikes. Simply choose which bike you want, and you’re ready to go!



How Does Pedal Assist Work? ⚙️

The moment you start pedalling, the motor kicks in to assist you smoothly. You’ll feel a gentle boost that makes pedalling easier. This assistance is capped at 15.5 mph. Once you reach that speed, the motor stops helping, but you can keep pedalling normally.



Tips for First-Time E-Bike Riders 🆕

Riding an e-bike is a fun experience, but it’s a little different from riding a regular bike. Because of the motor and battery, e-bikes are heavier. The motor will help you get moving, but it’s important to be mindful of the extra weight, especially when parking and locking your bike at the end of your ride.



Enjoy the ride and let the e-bike make your journey smoother 💛
