E-bikes can be transported on the bus as long as they can be secured to the existing bike rack. Be aware that e-bikes are typically heavier and wider than normal bicycles. Our racks can accommodate bikes up to 75 lbs, tire widths up to 5.5″, and wheelbases up to 48″. Check with a Bayway driver to ensure your E-bike can be transported properly. Bayway is not responsible for any damages sustained to E-bikes.
