E-Bike Hire Morzine

Yes - as with the e-bikes themselves, you're responsible for any damage caused to a hired battery, or if it's lost or stolen during your hire period, so it's worth treating it with the same care you would your own kit.

Yes - we run a separate battery hire service using 700Wh Specialized batteries (M2 and M3 models), which are compatible with Turbo Levo and Kenevo Gen 2 and Gen 3 e-bikes. It's a popular option for guests who own their own e-bike but can't bring the battery with them.

Yes, but treat it like any lithium battery - always use the proper charger, avoid leaving it charging unattended overnight or while you're out riding, and let the battery cool down after a hot day's riding before plugging it back in. If you're ever unsure, ask your chalet host, as they'll be used to helping guests charge e-bike batteries safely throughout the season.

Our standard pricing starts at 2 days, so it's built more around riders who know they want e-assist for a chunk of their trip rather than a single trial day. If you're only after a one-off go on an e-MTB, it's worth asking our team directly, as we may be able to help depending on availability that week.

Yes, insurance is mandatory for anyone hiring one of our e-bikes, either through your holiday insurance or a bike-specific policy, and you're responsible for any damage beyond normal wear and tear. We'd recommend Yellow Jersey Cycle Insurance if you don't already have cover sorted - use the code MTB75 and you'll get 15% off.

Your e-bike hire and your lift pass are two separate things - the Turbo Levo works perfectly well on lift-served bike park trails as well as pedal-up natural riding, but you'll still need to sort your own Portes du Soleil lift pass alongside it. Get in touch with us if you want help working out the best combination for your trip.

Battery hire is first-come, first-served, so we'd recommend booking ahead rather than assuming one will be available on arrival. You'll need to give us your accommodation name, lead booker's name, your bike's size, and your travel dates, along with a 25% deposit to secure it - the balance is payable by card, bank transfer or cash when you collect.

For Atlas Riders Week clients, battery hire is included free of charge, and it's a small additional fee for guests in our self-catered or partner accommodation. For anyone hiring a battery who isn't staying with Atlas Ride Co, standard rates are £20 for a day, £100 for a full week, and £10 for each extra day beyond that.

Atlas Ride Co e-MTB hire prices start at £160 for 2 days, rising to £235 for 3 days, £310 for 4 days, £385 for 5 days, and £450 for a full week - with each extra day beyond that at £60. It's worth booking the longer package if you know you'll want the bike most of your trip, as the per-day cost drops noticeably the longer you hire.

It's built as a genuine trail bike rather than a beginner-specific machine, so you'll want to be reasonably comfortable on a mountain bike to get the most from it, but the assist takes a huge amount of the effort out of the climbs, which is exactly where less experienced riders often struggle most in the Alps. If you're unsure whether it's the right fit for your ability, our team can talk you through it before you commit to a hire.

We don't set a strict age, height or weight limit on e-bike hire, but if you've got any concerns about fit or suitability, get in touch with us before you book and we'll talk it through so you're on the right size bike for your trip.

The Turbo Levo runs an 840 watt motor with 101Nm of torque and four rider input modes, plus Specialized's Smart Control system, which automatically manages how much assist you're getting based on the terrain and how far you've got left on the battery. On a full charge you're looking at up to 5 hours of ride time, though that varies a fair bit depending on which mode you're riding in and how much climbing you're doing.

We ask for a 30% deposit to secure your e-bike booking, with the remaining balance due when you collect it in resort. At collection you'll need to show ID and proof of address, and we'll hold your card details for the duration of the hire, which is standard practice for e-bike rental given the value of the bikes.

We run the Specialized Turbo Levo 29er with 150mm travel front and rear - a proper trail bike first and foremost, built on geometry taken straight from the Stumpjumper, rather than a watered-down "just for climbing" e-bike. It's the one bike in our fleet that genuinely rides like a normal enduro machine once you're pointed downhill, the motor just means you get a lot more laps in.

Fair wear and tear is expected and not something you'll be charged for, but anything beyond that - a cracked frame, bent wheel, damaged suspension and so on - is the renter's responsibility to cover, which is exactly why proper insurance matters before you head out on the trails. It's a genuinely capable bike and we want you riding it properly, not worrying about every rock garden.

Get in touch with our shop as soon as anything feels off, whether that's a mechanical issue with the bike or a battery that's not holding charge the way it should. We'd always rather sort a problem for you during your stay than have you ride out the week on a bike that isn't performing properly.

Helmets are included free of charge with every e-bike hire. Full knee, arm and body protection is available for €10 per item, and Five Ten Impact Pro riding shoes can be added for €20 a pair, so it's worth deciding in advance whether you're bringing your own protective kit or picking it up from us.

It automatically adjusts how much motor assistance you're getting in real time, based on the terrain you're riding and how much battery you've got left, so you're not constantly flicking through modes yourself. It's designed to help you get the most range out of a single charge without you having to think about battery management while you're out on the trails.

Battery hire is available in Morzine all year round, and also in Finale Ligure during spring and autumn if you're riding out there instead. Worth bearing in mind if your season spans more than one of our destinations.

E-bike hire is available to guests staying in Atlas Ride Co accommodation - it's not a walk-in service for anyone passing through Morzine. If you're booking a chalet or apartment with us, just let us know you'd like an e-MTB alongside it and we'll sort the hire for your stay.

Airlines don't allow lithium-ion batteries over 100 watt-hours in carry-on luggage, and modern e-bike batteries are usually well over that limit, so your own battery simply can't fly with you. If you're bringing your own e-MTB frame out to Morzine, hiring a compatible battery here is the practical way round that restriction.
