As temperatures dip, bundle up, and get ready for your chillest ride ever. On our powerful ebikes, getting from point A to point B in the winter months is as easy as a warm cup of hot cocoa! Here’s why taking an ebike is about to become your fave thing about winter.

Over the last decade, Citi Bike has become the fastest-growing transportation network in New York’s history — with a monthly record of over 4 million rides in August, and a record 161,422 rides on October 28 alone. Additionally, as of October 29, there have been 30.7 million Citi Bike rides this calendar year – setting a new annual record with more than two months left in the year. Now, we are pleased to announce its largest program expansion in five years, with a series of ambitious changes to make biking easier, greener, and more fun than ever.

Since launching in 2013, the Citi Bike program has grown into not only the biggest bikeshare in the country - but one of the biggest in the world. Making sure your ride is smooth from Brooklyn to the Bronx is no small feat. So here’s a peek behind the spokes, if you will.
