Brookhaven-based ElectroBike Georgia, metro Atlanta’s one-stop destination for all things e-bike, will bring an assortment of electric bicycles to its booth at the Piedmont Park Arts Festival, Aug. 17-18. Attendees will have the opportunity to see and learn about this popular and affordable option for recreation and commuting, and discover the variety of models now available including folding models, mountain e-bikes and even e-trikes.

“As more people become aware of the many advantages and fun of owning an electric bicycle, we are expanding our in-store inventory to provide a variety of options for all ages and interests,” said Eric Hunger, president of ElectroBike Georgia. “Our showroom in Brookhaven is where we offer sales and service, but we also rent e-bikes by the hour at the Atlanta Bicycle Barn, adjacent to the Eastside Beltline.”

ElectroBikes are state-of-the-art electric bicycles. Powered by a lithium battery and a quiet, brushless electric motor, ElectroBikes can be operated as traditional bicycles, but with the flip of a switch, the rider can turn on the pedal assist feature or operate a throttle for an effortless ride. Their versatility makes e-bikes an affordable transportation solution, as well as an enjoyable recreational option for people of all ages.
