Weights: Please note a maximum weight limit of 300lbs (136kg) for a single passenger on the Fat Tire eScooter and 300 lbs (181kg) total for the 2 passengers on the Yellow eTrike.

The Rickshaw E-Trike’s maximum weight limit is 450 lbs (204kg) total for all passengers.

Like all E-scooters, the performance and uphill speed may be limited depending on guest weight. The Rickshaw E-Trike is pedal assist and generous pedal use by the rider will extend the range and performance on hills. 

Helmets are required and will be provided.

The top speed of the San Francisco E-Scooter rental is around 20 mph (32 kph) and the average range between battery charges is 25 miles (40 km).

The battery life is around 1.5 to 2 hours with constant riding, but this can vary depending on factors such as hills, rider weight, and speed. 

If you ride at full speed without any stops, the range will be substantially less. Constant aggressive acceleration and braking will drastically reduce your range.  Gentle acceleration and coasting will ensure you make the entire tour distance. On the pedal assist Rickshaw E-Trikes the range and speed are helped by how much you pedal and at what speed setting.   

GPS-guided tours are set at a relaxed pace and the scooters /trikes have a limit on top speed, typically cruising between 5-20 mph (8-32 kph) for a safe and comfortable ride on crowded streets and bike trails.

Like all E-scooters and Pedal Assist E-Trikes, the performance and uphill speed may be limited depending on guest weight. 

Our most popular tour loop to the Golden Gate Bridge is 1.5 hours long, of which approximately 1.25 hours is driving time.

Note: Route times are estimates based on average time and traffic conditions. All e-scooter / E-trike rentals are charged based on departure and return times.  

The route combines Bike Lanes, Slower City Streets, and paved dedicated Bike Trails. 

1. In San Francisco, many lower-speed streets have a dedicated Bike Lane.  Wer use lower speed streets on the tour route.
2. A big section of the Tour Route is on a wide paved bike trail that starts at the Marina Green and goes through the Presidio to Fort Point under the Golden Gate Bridge.
3. There are a few hills on the route. 

You are free to ride wherever you wish (exceptions below) as long as you obey all bicycle rules. If a sign is posted stating no bicycles are allowed then this also applies to you. 

IMPORTANT: Electric Scooters / E-Trikes are NOT allowed on the Golden Gate Bridge sidewalks or on the gravel trails along San Francisco Bay in the Presidio. You cannot take these E-scooters/E-Trikes across the Golden Gate Bridge. 

These E-scooters/Trikes are best on pavement. No off-road riding.

The best routes in San Francisco follow our amazing system of bike lanes and multi-use bike/pedestrian trails.

Do I have to stay on the tour route?
You can go freestyle if you want to, no problem. But the GPS only talks on the designated routes. The batteries last approximately 2 hours so your range is limited. 

Yes. Each rental will be charged a deposit: E-Scooter $150.00 deposit or $300.00 deposit per Rickshaw E-Trike.

This will not be charged to your card but an authorization to hold will be placed on the card.

The Yellow eTrike Scooters are 2 rider scooters. The back seat/ rear passenger age 5+. Only one child or one Adult on the back seat of the Yellow E-Trikes. 

The Rickshaw E-Trikes are 2 or 3 rider scooters. The back seat/ rear passenger age 5+. Only one Adult or 2 small children on the back bench seat of the Rickshaw E-Trikes. No adult seated with a child on the back bench seat – please do not ask!

The Fat Tire eScooters are 1 rider scooters. No passengers.

No small children (under age 5) or infants in laps or in child carriers.

NO. Due to very crowded pedestrian sidewalks, electric-powered scooters (and many other modes of transportation) are not allowed to ride onto the bridge sidewalks.

You will have an amazing stop up close at the Southern end of the bridge on this GPS-guided tour route.

NOTE: We do encourage guests to walk out onto the bridge sidewalks after parking their eScooter nearby.

The good news is: We do get amazing views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Historic Fort Point (built directly under the South approach), Bridge Overlook areas, and San Francisco Bay from our GPS-guided route and frequent stops.

Safety is a top priority on the bridge, and for that reason, Electric Scooters /E-trikes are not allowed to be ridden on the sidewalks to ensure the safety of the millions of visitors that come each year.
