Electro
Ride Bikes and Scooters has offered electric bikes in the San
Francisco Bay Area since Summer '96. We provide exceptional
service and support for our customers
exemplified by this website. We're inspired by our vision
of Light Electric Vehicles (LEVs) substituting for cars on most local
trips and errands. Using clean, efficient vehicles saves money
and time while helping the environment and improving our health. LEVs
make sense for these times.

If you
live in or around San Jose, CA, we are your local
retailer. Our web-based business operates from our home in
Milpitas. (Behind the glass in the photo is our showroom.
Across the street is a park for test rides.) If you plan to
visit our showroom in Milpitas, call first to set up an appointment
at 408/262-8975. Or e-mail
us. An associate, Brian
Howell, sells and markets BetterBikes from
his location in Belmont, CA. For a demonstration appointment
and test ride, contact him at 650-222-0378
or brian.howell@comcast.net.
If you
live outside our area, shop
locally.
Manufacturing companies concentrates on manufacturing and
distribution. Although some provide sales and service, they
prefer to work through local retailers. Check
our partial list of retailers nationwide. If there's no
retailer near you, call us at 408/262-8975. We serve people worldwide.
If you
use public transit, consider an electric scooter
or kick scooter. Light enough to
carry on-board like a bike, some also collapse to fit under bus or
train seats. By blending with public transit, they make door-to-door
transport quick and easy.
Warranty: Various manufacturers warrant
their products for a period of three to six months from purchase date
against all manufacturing defects with the exception of the
batteries, tires and tubes. We extend that warranty to twelve
(12) months for our customers. Furthermore, we are so confident
of our products that we offer a thirty (30) day money back guarantee
to our customers providing the unit is returned in original condition.
