Top 5 eBike Accessories We Can’t Live Without
Just diving into the world of ebikes? There are a few key accessories that can make your ride smoother, safer, and way more fun. Here’s a rundown of our top 5 must-have ebike accessories that we simply can’t live without.
1. Hitch Rack
Want to expand your explorations? Whether you’re heading to the trailhead or a weekend of wine tasting, a sturdy, ebike-rated hitch rack is the key to getting your ride from point A to point B. Ebikes are heavier than regular bikes, so you need a rack that can handle the extra weight. With easy loading systems (like the Saris Door County that lowers and raises with the touch of a button!), integrated locks, and compatibility with different vehicles and frame styles, a good hitch rack opens up so many possibilities for adventure!

2. Rearview Mirror
For commuters and road riders, a rearview mirror is a game-changer. It’s like having eyes in the back of your head, letting you keep tabs on traffic without constantly craning your neck or swerving to look back. Stay aware, stay safe, and enjoy the ride without the worry.

3. Bike Lock
Your ebike is an investment, so protecting it with a solid bike lock is a no-brainer. Whether you’re grabbing a coffee or running errands, a reliable lock ensures your ride will be right where you left it. Locks are graded Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond (formerly Platinum) depending on the length of time it would take a thief to get through it.
4. Multitool
A multitool is like a Swiss Army knife for your bike. It’s got everything you need for on-the-go adjustments and quick fixes, from tightening bolts to adjusting your seat. Keep one in your bag or pocket, and you’ll be prepared for anything.
