City Commuter E-Bike Rental— Jackson Hole

Pedego electric bikes use a pedal-assist system — as you pedal, the motor kicks in to amplify your effort. You can adjust the assist level to get as much or as little help as you want. Most models also have a throttle for power without pedaling. In Jackson Hole, that assistance is transformative — the altitude, the distance, and the mountain views that would make a regular bike ride genuinely demanding become effortless on a Pedego.

Pedego's long-range batteries are rated for 85+ miles (137+ km) per charge. The ride to Teton Village is approximately 12 miles (19 km) one way, and a full day of exploring the valley pathway network stays well within a single charge.

You must be able to ride a bicycle independently before renting — with the exception of the Fat Tire Trike, which requires no balance and is suitable for anyone who cannot ride a standard bicycle. Staff will walk you through the controls and provide a tutorial before you head out.

Wyoming state law does not require helmets for adult e-bike riders. Helmets are included with every rental and are strongly recommended for all riders.

The Jackson Hole pathway system is predominantly flat and paved — the valley floor is remarkably level given its mountain surroundings. The e-bike's pedal-assist handles any gradient with ease. One important note: Jackson sits at 6,237 feet (1,901 m) above sea level. Visitors arriving from lower elevations may feel the altitude, especially on longer rides. Stay hydrated, pace yourself, and allow a day to acclimate before tackling the longer routes to Jenny Lake if possible.

Yes — all Jackson Hole Community Pathways are approved for e-bike riding under 25 mph (40 km/h). The town pathway network connects Jackson to Teton Village, Wilson, and the surrounding valley.

Jackson Hole weather can change quickly — afternoon thunderstorms are common in summer, and temperatures can drop significantly at elevation. Check the forecast before heading out, carry a light layer, and be prepared to turn around if lightning develops. Rentals go forward in all but severe weather. Contact the shop if conditions look concerning on your rental day.

Jackson Hole is one of the premier wildlife viewing destinations in North America. The valley's pathways pass through prime habitat for bison, elk, moose, pronghorn, coyotes, bald eagles, and osprey. Always maintain a safe distance from wildlife and never approach or feed any animals.

Yes — booking in advance is strongly recommended. Jackson Hole is one of the most visited destinations in the United States during summer and fall, and rentals fill up quickly. Book as early as possible, especially for peak season (June through September).

The right bike depends on your riding style, physical needs, and what you want to do on the trail:

City Commuter — A lightweight, efficient hybrid with a slightly forward-leaning position. The most road-oriented bike in the fleet. Best for riders who want a nimble, responsive feel and plan to cover serious distance on the paved pathways.

Element Fat Tire — A compact, rugged bike with 20" fat tires that handle varied terrain with confidence. The all-terrain option for riders who want stability on mixed surfaces or a more planted, adventure-ready feel.

Fat Tire Trike — Three wheels, no balancing required. The most accessible option in the fleet and the only choice for riders who cannot balance on a standard bicycle. Also ideal for riders who want maximum stability or have balance concerns. The large rear cargo bucket carries groceries, gear, or a small passenger.

Low Step-Thru Boomerang — The most accessible two-wheel option, with an ultra-low 9-inch step-thru frame that makes mounting and dismounting effortless. Best for riders with limited mobility, hip restrictions, or anyone who simply prefers the easiest possible mounting experience.

Step-Thru Interceptor — The classic Pedego cruiser. A comfortable, upright step-thru bike with a wide padded saddle. Best for riders who want a relaxed, scenic pace and maximum comfort on longer rides.

Stretch Cargo — An extended cargo bike with a rear passenger seat and front and rear racks. Best for two riders who want to share one bike, or for anyone carrying significant gear. The rear seat accommodates an adult or older child passenger with footrests and a backrest.

The shop is directly on the Jackson Hole Community Pathway, giving you access to the valley's full 56+ mile (90+ km) network immediately:

West to Teton Village (~12 miles / 19 km one way): Head west on the pathway through open ranchland with the full Teton Range directly ahead the entire way. Teton Village is the base of the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort — restaurants, the aerial tram, and shops. A 3-hour rental covers this comfortably with time for a stop.

South through Jackson and beyond: The pathway winds south through the town of Jackson, past parks and neighborhoods, and continues toward the valley's southern communities. A great option for exploring the town itself.

Wilson and the pathway corridor west: The pathway connects west toward the town of Wilson, a scenic corridor through open ranchland and forested sections with excellent wildlife viewing. Some sections transition to gravel — staff will walk you through the route before you head out.

The Jackson Hole valley floor is remarkably flat despite its mountain surroundings. The pathway to Teton Village is essentially level throughout. Some sections toward Wilson and north of town have gentle grades — the e-bike handles all of them with ease.
