Frequently asked questions

An e-bike, or electric bike, is a bicycle equipped with a small electric motor that helps you pedal more easily. It feels just like riding a regular bike—only smoother and with less effort, especially uphill or over greater distances.

Electric bikes work using a battery-powered electric motor that assists you while pedalling. The motor kicks in as you ride, giving you an extra boost, especially during acceleration or on slopes. You’re still in control and can pedal as much or as little as you like.

To ride a Bolt e-bike in Nigeria, ensure all components are in working order. Then, adjust the saddle to your body size, hop on, and start pedalling just as you would on a regular bike. The motor will kick in, and you'll feel a boost of power.

Yes! All Bolt e-bikes are pedal-assisted, meaning you can ride them like a regular bike. The motor only assists you while pedalling, giving you more range and a more natural ride.

To ride a Bolt e-bike in Nigeria, you need to be at least 18 years old, depending on your local regulations. We recommend checking specific city rules in the Bolt app.

To start your Bolt e-bike rental, simply open the Bolt app, find a nearby electric bike, scan the QR code on the handlebars, and you’re ready to ride. No keys, no fuss.
