Batteries
A 2nd battery can open up some outrageous long-range adventures! Or if you are traveling internationally and you can’t bring your battery with you, we’ve got your adventure covered.
Batteries can be shipped domestically. For epic adventures starting or ending somewhere in New Zealand other than Wellington we can send one to you or somewhere near you. Contact us to arrange shipping.
Check our Bike Hire page if you need the bike! (they also do come with a battery)
If your particular battery isn’t listed or if you’re not sure what type of battery you have, contact us at info@switchedonbikes.co.nz
Charger included free if required. If you’re providing your own electric bike, make sure you bring your keys. It won’t work without them.
Racks
Thule EasyFold XT high-quality eBike ready bike rack.
Low, towball mounted eBike racks like these are the best way to carry eBikes. Even heavy eBikes are easy to mount. You can pop them up one wheel at a time and never need to actually lift the whole bike. And critically, they’re rated to carry the extra weight, where normal racks are only rated for the significantly smaller weight of ordinary bikes.
Fits standard NZ towball. Not suitable for euro towballs.
Bike racks will sometimes obscure your car’s number plate which is illegal. But fortunately you can order a supplementary plate really easily. This company does them for around $23 at the time of writing. https://consumer.licensys.co.nz/landing
