Ride the diverse trails of Rethymnon with eBikes Rethymno’s electric touring bikes, powered for effortless travel across historic roads and coastal paths. See Crete from a fresh perspective with tech-savvy cycling built for adventure and ease.
Rethymnon, located on the northern coast of Crete, Greece, blends vibrant coastal energy with rugged inland landscapes, offering a refreshing playground for outdoor adventurers. eBikes Rethymno brings an electrifying dimension to this locale with their electric touring bikes, equipped with powerful Bafang Max Drive motors and Panasonic 630 Wh batteries. These bikes aren’t just a ride—they’re a way to traverse diverse terrain with ease, from sun-drenched seaside roads to quieter mountain paths lined with wild herbs and ancient olive groves.
Cycling around Rethymnon reveals a blend of geological and cultural richness. Limestone cliffs rise near the coast while the inland hills are peppered with Venetian forts and Byzantine churches.

The electric bikes’ 8-speed gear system complements this varied terrain, helping riders confidently shift from gentle, winding streets to steeper ascents without expending excessive energy.
What makes eBikes Rethymno exceptional is how it opens up access to these unique landscapes and heritage sites without the hollowing exhaustion traditional biking can demand.

This balance of power, comfort (thanks to a thoughtful 17'' frame design), and freedom makes eBikes Rethymno a standout resource for anyone wanting to move through Rethymnon’s outdoors actively and sustainably.
