Smart Metro Bikes are Here!

Hello Valued Passholder,

We had a blast launching the Smart Metro Bike on the Westside at CicLAvia on Sunday, March 3rd The clouds and rain came and went early in the morning, but as the saying goes, the sun always shines on CicLAvia and Sunday was no exception! We couldn't have asked for a better or more beautiful day to introduce the new bikes and we were thrilled to see so many of you riding.

Have you had a chance to ride one of the new Smart Metro Bikes? We want to see your adventures! Be sure to tag us @BikeMetro on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook when you take one for a spin.

⚡ Charged Up! Electric Metro Bikes are Coming to DTLA and Central LA ⚡

In November, Metro Bike Share introduced ten electric bikes to the existing DTLA/Central LA fleet as part of the Metro Bike Share Electric Bike pilot program. The pilot program ended in early March with over 4,900 trips logged on Electric Metro Bikes. We are charged up to announce that Metro Bike Share will permanently add a number of Electric Metro Bikes to the current fleet of available bikes in Downtown LA and Central LA later this year!

Thank you to everyone who took a ride on the electric bike and participated in our post-ride survey! Riders let us know that they were able to pedal without breaking a sweat, shorten their commutes, and make trips up steep hills with much less effort (ahem... Grand Ave.)

Find out more about the Electric Metro Bike in the link below. Stay tuned on social media and check your inbox for the latest news on the Electric Metro Bike as it is released.
