Damages
Damage To Parts: Prior to checking out, we place a hold on your credit card as a damage deposit to cover minor to major repairs. Any damaged or lost gear will be charged to the renter at the full, retail price.
Crashes: Crashes happen; and our mechanic needs to evaluate all bikes and batteries after a crash. A charge is levied for each bike crashed regardless of what happened. See Pricing for charges & Maintenance for labor rates.
eBike Damage Wavier
At the time of booking, choose or not to purchase an Bike Damage Waiver. This will limit your liability in the event of a crash.
eBike Waiver Purchased | No Waiver Purchased | |

What if there is a problem with the eBike on the road?
Depending on the situation, we will either provide you with a swapped eBike, repair the eBike on the road, or provide you with transportation to where you need to go on island without charge.
All bikes are rented with a fully charged battery and an optional charging cable if you like. If you run out of battery power, we have a fee for driving out and swapping the battery, subject to availability, or you must find a place to charge your eBike. If you wish to switch out your battery mid ride, you must come to our offices to collect it. Please call ahead, 778-956-7946, to see if we have a charged battery available to swap.
What results in eBike damage deposits being claimed?
- Crashes. Parts are replaced at full replacement value at renters expense + safety check fee. Unless Crash Damage Waiver paid at time of booking.
- Getting on the ferry. Our business is based on Bowen Island and we’d like to keep all of our eBikes on island.
- Doing tricks, going to the pump track, jumps.
- Skidding & Locking up the rear wheel. You’re wearing down the tires for the next person!
- Attempting maintenance. We have hydraulic brakes on most of our eBikes. Do not attempt to remove the hoses for these hydraulic brakes.
- Riding on a flat tire. Call us and we will get you a new bike or pick up the broken one, or change the tire for you.
