We meet you and deliver the bikes near the main entrance of the Boquerón Natural Preserve in Cabo Rojo.
Riding the SW of Puerto Rico, what to expect?
Expect ridding under vegetation foliage and under sun, the novice can ride mild hills with ease with electric assistance, be prepared for hot and humid climate. A small back pack with water and snacks is advisable.
Is a helmet and bike lock included?
A helmet and bike lock are included with each eMTB you rent. $40 replacement fee will be charged to you, if any helmet or bike lock is not returned or is severely damaged. The client is fully responsible for lost or stolen bicycles.
What do I need to bring with me?
For this adventure, we advise you wear athletic attire, proper work out shoes, gloves and glasses or sun glasses. Many riders prefer to ride wearing long sleeve shirts. Sunscreen to apply often during your excursion.
For long rides it is advisable to carry a small back pack with extra water and snacks, perhaps an apple or a banana.
All bikes are provided with quality platform pedals, but if you bring your own clip pedals we will install them on your eMTB rental at no extra charge.
Do I need to pedal?
Yes, the Bosch electric motor is to assist, but you’ll smile pedaling up hill. A friend described his experience his first experience riding eMTB as “… is as fun going downhill as it is uphill”.
You will exercise, the more aggressive you ride, the more calories and energy you’ll burn, plan your own energy usage according with your fitness level.
How old do kids have to be to ride your eMTB’s?
Every bike rider must be 18 or older to rent a bike on their own.
Youth must meet the minimum height requirement of 5’2” to ride a small size 29” wheel eMTB and be aged 13 to 17 to ride along with a parent, who must sign a parent-signed waiver for each minor.
For safety reasons, no children under 13 may ride our e-bikes regardless of height. The bikes are heavier than a typical youth bike and handling one may not be safe for both the young rider and the bike. MTB and eMTB riding requires minimal bicycle riding skills that each parent must be aware of before renting an eMTB for their children.
Can I “pit stop” and park the bike to have a cold drink shop or eat?
Please do, the near Boquerón Village and Combate Village has bakeries, restaurants and shops. There are beaches for you to take a dip and cool down if you wish (please do not get the bikes in seawater).
Can your eMTB’s be delivered and picked up?
We offer free eMTB delivery and pickup if you rent for 1 day or more to your hotel or airbnb if it is located anywhere in the municipality of Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico.
Can I get money back if I bring the eMTB back earlier than the end of the span of time I booked it for?
Unfortunately no.
Refunds cannot be given for early returns, your reservation time disallows others from renting the eMTB’s during those same periods. We appreciate and thank you for your understanding.
What if my bike runs out of battery?
The batteries of our eMTB’s are fully charged when delivered. We have tested these bikes in all kind of conditions, rider skills and weight. The average rider fitness level rides between 2.5 and 4.0 hours.
Advanced riders that plan to ride longer are recommend to strategize the use of battery for a longer range using eco and touring mode. If you are an advanced rider you may extend the life of the battery for up to 6-8 hours or over 70 miles depending on how you manage the power modes.
We rent extended batteries for longer range upon request and availability.
Without battery power, except for the extra weight, the eMTB’s ride like a regular premium mountain bike.
What if I damage the eMTB?
Within our Terms and Conditions, renters agree to pay for all damages incurred to the rented eMTB during their possession above any normal riding wear and tear.
What if the eMTB is stolen?
Although Cabo Rojo is a quite safe town, for your peace of mind, locks are provided with each eMTB.
During your rental period, the security and responsibility of the eMTB will fall to the renter. We provide a bike lock at no extra cost. But we strongly advise you never leave the sight of you bike and to store it indoors if renting for multiple days.
