How we verified this directory — Milad Ghobadibeygvand, BScN
Ten e-bike makers' dealer maps and store locators, the State of Colorado's two e-bike retailer lists, the Colorado shop directory's records, OpenStreetMap, 460 Google Maps reads and 16 questions to an answer engine named 189 businesses that might be an electric bike store Colorado Springs shoppers could visit. The Census geocoder then placed 169 of them on one side of the city line or the other.
A Colorado Springs store makes this list when Google Maps shows it open and its own pages offer e-bikes, a maker's dealer map lists it, or the State lists it as a participating e-bike retailer. Left off: closed storefronts, rental and tour counters, mobile mechanics and dealers whose electric machines are dirt bikes.
Quick Answer
Sixteen eBike shops in Colorado Springs or just past its line sell from storefronts, verified November 14, 2026. Fifteen are inside the city, from Old Town Bike Shop downtown, 0.5 miles from City Hall, to Scheels on Interquest Parkway, 10.8 miles north; Ken's Eastside Electric Bikes stands 0.2 miles past the line.
Colorado leaves an e-bike out of "motor vehicle" and out of registration (C.R.S. § 42-1-102(58), § 42-3-103). The City lets Class 1 e-bikes onto select trails and keeps Class 2 and 3 off them (City of Colorado Springs). Before you choose, the buying guide covers class, budget, fit and battery safety.
Colorado Springs covers 202.2 square miles of land and 0.4 of water (2025 Gazetteer), with 494,743 residents in the Census Bureau's 2025 estimate. The Census counts Cimarron Hills, inside the city's outer line on the east side, as its own place, so a store there can carry a Colorado Springs address and stand outside the city.

Riding through a Colorado Springs winter? That guide's 14 picks are chosen for snow, ice and cold. On their listed motors, 10 meet Colorado's definition of 750 W or less and four list more; each ships free to Colorado.
See the 14 winter picksMountain Metro — Taking an eBike on the Bus
Leave your full-size e-bike off the bus rack. Mountain Metro's FAQ says "E-bikes cannot be placed on the front-mounted bus bike racks because often their weight exceeds the rack's safety limits" (Mountain Metro FAQs). Each rack holds two bikes, one per rider, at no extra fare.
Your folding e-bike can ride inside. "Foldable e-bikes are allowed on board if they are fully folded, brought inside the bus, and stored safely out of the aisle," the same FAQ says.
For a one-way trip, rent instead. PikeRide offers "24/7 Public eBike Rental in Colorado Springs and Manitou Springs" from stations you unlock in its app. Mountain Metro also rents bike lockers at its Tejon and Woodmen park-and-rides and the Downtown Parking Garage, $30 per six-month rental plus a $45 refundable key deposit (FAQ).
Trail Access — The City's Class 1 Trails and Its Open Space
Since July 1, 2025, a Class 1 e-bike may ride the City's designated trails; Class 2 and 3 may not. In the City's words, Class 1 e-bikes "are permitted on select urban and regional trails," while "Class 2 and Class 3 e-bikes and all motorized use continue to be prohibited on all trails" (City of Colorado Springs). Ordinance No. 25-30 made a Class 1 a "nonmotorized use" and Class 2 and 3 "motorized uses."
Open space is closed to every class. "E-bikes of all classes are not permitted on City of Colorado Springs open space properties," the City's e-bike page says.
On a trail, yield. The Parks Department's e-bike rules, in force July 1, 2025, ask a Class 1 rider to yield to people walking, horse riders, wildlife and uphill traffic, and bar a Class 2 or 3 from park property.
Colorado's own path rule leaves this to the City. State law lets a Class 1 or 2 ride a bike or pedestrian path where bicycles may travel and lets a local authority bar them; a Class 3 needs the local authority's permission off the street (C.R.S. § 42-4-1412(14)). The Colorado e-bike trail guide covers the state's other managers.
Riding a Class 2 or 3? Keep yours on the street and in bike lanes; on the City's trails only a Class 1 may ride, and on its open space no e-bike at all.
Buying for the trails? Colorado's definition takes a motor "not exceeding seven hundred fifty watts," and the mountain-bike guide says only one of its ten picks sits "inside the 750-watt line," so read each pick's "Where it is legal" line before you buy.
Check the mountain picksColorado eBike Laws — What Makes an eBike Legal in Colorado Springs
Skip the DMV: Colorado leaves an e-bike out of "motor vehicle" and out of registration. The vehicle code's definition of a motor vehicle "does not include electrical assisted bicycles" (C.R.S. § 42-1-102(58)), and the registration rule "does not apply to" one (§ 42-3-103(1)(b)). The Colorado e-bike law page walks through the state's rules.
- What qualifies. "A vehicle having two or three wheels, fully operable pedals, and an electric motor not exceeding seven hundred fifty watts of power," in Class 1, 2 or 3 (§ 42-1-102(28.5)); the City's code uses the same words (Ordinance No. 25-30).
- Class 3. No one under 16 may ride one except as a passenger on a Class 3 designed to carry passengers, and every rider and passenger under 18 on a Class 3 wears a helmet (§ 42-4-1412(15)).
- What the store must tell you. A seller "shall disclose to the purchaser" the motor's watts, its top speed and its class, and for a Class 3, that riding one under 16 is unlawful (§ 42-4-221(13)).
- What a breach costs. Breaking a § 42-4-1412 riding rule is "a class 2 misdemeanor traffic offense" (§ 42-4-1412(12)(a)); it and a missing lamp or reflector (§ 42-4-221) are each scheduled at a $15 penalty plus a $6 surcharge (§ 42-4-1701), and City police may impound an unequipped bike (City Code § 10.19.111).
Buying for a teenager in Colorado Springs? Before that first ride, work through the 14-point checklist in the parents' guide.
Open the parents' guideColorado Springs' own rules
On a sidewalk, yield, signal and obey the signs. "When authorized signs are erected giving notice, no person shall operate a bicycle, electrical assisted bicycle" on that sidewalk, and a rider on one "shall yield the right of way to any pedestrian and shall give audible signal before overtaking and passing" (City Code § 10.19.107, Ordinance No. 21-23).
On the street, you drive a vehicle. A rider of a bicycle or e-bike "has all the rights and duties applicable to the driver of any other vehicle" (§ 10.19.101), as state law also says (C.R.S. § 42-4-1412(1)).
The State's e-bike money, and where to spend it
At the register, Colorado's tax credit takes $225 off your new qualified e-bike in 2026, once a year per resident. The Department of Revenue sets the 2026 credit at $250 and the retailer's discount at $225, and a retailer whose tax year began in 2025 gives that year's $450 until its year ends (Department of Revenue). The yearly limit is on the Energy Office's tax credit page (Internet Archive capture, January 21, 2026).
Fourteen of the sixteen stores on this page are on the State's participating retailer list, all but Ascent Cycling and Best Buy.
An income-qualified rebate pays more, but you enter a draw. The Energy Office's rebate page, as the Internet Archive captured it on August 24, 2026, lists $1,000 for an e-bike, $300 more for an e-cargo bike and $300 more for an adaptive one.
Registration opens January 11 to 18 and March 15 to 22, 2027, the Office picks recipients at random, and a winner redeems the rebate at a participating retailer within 60 days. Ten of the sixteen stores are on its retailer list.
Where to Ride Your eBike in Colorado Springs
The City's e-bike map draws 131.4 miles of trail where a Class 1 may ride. Its E-Bike Trails map draws 1,356 trail pieces, 128.1 miles of them inside the city, each piece counted once, all but 1.8 miles of them urban trails.
| Trail on the City's e-bike map | Miles inside Colorado Springs |
|---|---|
| Briargate district trails | 18.7 |
| Pikes Peak Greenway | 16.6 |
| Sand Creek Trail | 13.3 |
| Homestead Trail | 11.3 |
| Cottonwood Creek Trail | 8.1 |
| Rock Island Trail | 6.7 |
| Foothills Trail | 5.4 |
The City's layer names the Briargate pieces "Briargate SIMD." The map leaves out the Ute Valley Regional, University and Bear Creek Regional trails, 6.4 miles of the City's trail layer inside the city, and it draws no park trail, so check the map before you ride one.
Riding a Class 1 to a store? Twelve of the fifteen stand within half a mile of a trail on the City's e-bike map, Criterium 0.03 miles from the Pikes Peak Greenway and ProCycling 0.08, so your test ride can start on a trail you may legally use.
Commuting on the Greenway or Tejon Street? The commuter guide compares 18 e-bikes side by side. On their listed motors, 17 meet Colorado's definition of 750 W or less, and each ships free to you in Colorado.
See the 18 commuter picksWhy order your e-bike from Redtail
Would a delivered bike suit you better? For Colorado, Redtail's shipping policy means "free shipping on every electric bike within the contiguous United States." Your bike is "dispatched within 1–3 business days of confirmation," and most "arrive within 5–10 business days after dispatch, depending on your location."
Tell us about carrier damage "within 48 hours of delivery," and we file the carrier claim for you. If your bike arrives "dead on arrival, will not charge, or throws an error code out of the box," How Buying Works treats it as a manufacturer warranty claim, and the refund policy carries the same terms.
Questions before you order go to the US line, (213) 444‑4020, or the contact page, which answers email "within one business day." Checkout takes Shop Pay, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and the terms of service name the company that sells you the bike.
Frequently Asked Questions — Colorado Springs eBikes
Where can you buy an e-bike in Colorado Springs?
Electric bikes for sale in Colorado Springs are at fifteen stores, from Old Town Bike Shop and ProCycling downtown to Criterium in Rockrimmon and Scheels on Interquest Parkway. Manitou E-Bike Co calls itself "the premier electric bike shop in Colorado Springs and the Pikes Peak region" (its site). Ken's Eastside Electric Bikes stands just past the line in Cimarron Hills.
Are e-bikes allowed in Colorado Springs?
Yes. Colorado treats a Class 1, 2 or 3 with pedals and a motor "not exceeding seven hundred fifty watts" as an e-bike, outside "motor vehicle" and registration (C.R.S. § 42-1-102). The City admits only Class 1 to its designated trails and no class to its open space (City of Colorado Springs).
Which Colorado Springs trails allow e-bikes?
Class 1 e-bikes may ride select urban and regional trails, while Class 2 and 3 e-bikes stay off every City trail and no e-bike may ride City open space (City of Colorado Springs). The City's E-Bike Trails map draws 128.1 miles of those trails inside the city, the Pikes Peak Greenway and Sand Creek Trail among them.
Can you ride an e-bike on the sidewalk in Colorado Springs?
Yes, except where a posted sign bars it. You yield to people walking and give an audible signal before passing them, under City Code § 10.19.107 (Ordinance No. 21-23) and the state's matching rule (C.R.S. § 42-4-1412(10)).
How does the Colorado e-bike rebate work in Colorado Springs?
Two State programs pay at participating stores. The tax credit takes $225 off your new qualified e-bike at the register in 2026 (Department of Revenue), at fourteen of this page's sixteen stores. The income-qualified rebate pays up to $1,000 to registrants drawn at random, the next registration listed for January 11 to 18, 2027, and ten of the stores take it.
Where can you rent an e-bike in Colorado Springs?
For a Colorado Springs electric bike rental, PikeRide rents electric-assist bikes around the clock from stations across the city and Manitou Springs. Manitou E-Bike Co and Colorado Springs Bike Shop rent bikes from their stores, and Amp'd Adventures and Pikes Peak Bike Tours run guided e-bike rides.
Who repairs e-bikes in Colorado Springs?
For e-bike repair in Colorado Springs, Manitou E-Bike Co lists "e-bike service" (its site). Elevation Bicycle Shop services "nearly any bicycle, including e-bikes" (its site). Just past the line, Ken's Eastside Electric Bikes offers "expert maintenance and service options" (its site).

Sources, limitations and how this page was verified
The denominator
Every business any source tied to Colorado Springs became a lead: 189 in all, each with a verdict by November 14, 2026. Out of them came 16 verified stores: 15 inside Colorado Springs and 1 within 3 miles of its line.
The Census placed 117 leads inside Colorado Springs. Besides the 15 stores, 53 are not bicycle stores, 16 are closed, 11 repeat another lead, 6 could not be checked, 6 rent bikes or run tours, 4 keep no storefront, 2 name no e-bike for sale, 2 only repair bikes, 1 left no trace and 1 is temporarily closed.
Of the 8 within 3 miles past the city line, 1 is the store above, 5 are not bicycle stores, 1 rents bikes or runs tours and 1 repeats another lead.
The other 64 lie farther out or could not be placed, 44 of them outside Colorado Springs.
The sources, and what each one could and could not do
The makers and the State. Ten makers' maps were read on November 13, 2026, for every store within 18 miles of the city's Census point: the dealer maps of Aventon, Giant, Pedego, Specialized, Trek and Velotric and the store locators of Lectric, Magnum, QuietKat and SWFT. The State's tax-credit and rebate retailer lists were read whole the same day.
Google Maps. The city's 29 ZIP code areas, 82 neighborhood names and 13 nearby places were searched in two phrasings, 248 searches, and 212 follow-ups opened the leads' own listings.
Leads and websites. OpenStreetMap, the Colorado directory and Claude's web search pointed to businesses; none rests on them alone. Each lead's website was requested, except a closed shop's Facebook page, and read whole where its home page named no e-bike.
The city line. For all 169 placed leads, the TIGERweb boundary and the geocoder agree. Distances run straight from City Hall, 107 N. Nevada Ave.
Limitations
- Stock moves faster than a directory: the stores were read on November 13 and 14, 2026, so call ahead for a particular model.
- Bosch's dealer map refused our reader, so its October listings served as leads only.
- The sites of Scheels, REI and Sun Powersports refused our reader, so those three stand on the State's lists; the Energy Office's pages are cited from the Internet Archive.
- The City Code is quoted from the ordinances the City Council passed, because the code's online host refused our reader.
- The 2026 tax-credit amount ends with the 2026 tax year, and the rebate windows come from a page captured on August 24, 2026; both are re-read before January 1, 2027.
- Only Claude's web search was asked, 16 buyer questions; no Reddit thread was read.
- This list stops 3 miles past the line, and a shop no source named could still exist.
- This list is due for a full re-check by May 2027, sooner if the City changes its trail rules or a store here closes.
