Explore Waiheke at your own pace with a premium e-bike from Waiheke Cycles, a locally owned bike shop, workshop and e-bike hire service based in Ostend.
Waiheke’s hills are part of what makes the island so beautiful, and an e-bike makes getting between its villages, beaches, vineyards and scenic spots considerably easier. Waiheke Cycles offers comfortable step-through e-bikes, with every rider personally fitted to their bike and shown how everything works before setting off.
The team can also help you plan a route based on how much time you have, your cycling confidence and what you’d like to see along the way. Whether you’re planning a leisurely ride between beaches, heading out for lunch or incorporating a vineyard or two into your day, having some local knowledge before you set off can make all the difference.
Bike hire includes a helmet, secure lock, waterproof pannier, phone holder and lights, along with local route recommendations and support from the Waiheke Cycles team. Flexible delivery and collection options are also available. Bikes can be collected from the Ostend workshop or delivered to your accommodation, and collection can even be arranged from your final vineyard or another agreed location at the end of your ride.
Waiheke Cycles is also a full-service local bike workshop, offering professional repairs and servicing for everything from every day and electric bikes to road, mountain and cargo bikes, along with bike sales, parts and accessories.
A great option for visitors who want the freedom to explore Waiheke independently, with local advice and support along the way.
