An ebike library is exactly what it sounds like: a place where people can borrow electric bikes for free for, in some instances, as long as a week. There are approximately 50 ebike libraries around the US, a number that has nearly doubled since 2022. By 2024, that number doubled, with around 2.05 million electric bikes sold in America. Where ebikes have given people more options when it comes to pedal-powered transportation, ebike libraries have made access more equitable. In California, residents of the city of Elk Grove can borrow ebikes from the lending library for as long as three weeks.
