Our EB-1 e-bike will be available to hire across the 23 square kilometre City of Frankston district, as part of a 12 month trial. While Frankston City Council is not a part of Victoria’s recently-announced e-scooter trials, the city recognises the many benefits of micromobility and welcomes e-bikes to the region. 

Frankston will be the first location in Victoria to host Neuron’s e-bikes, joining the successes of Darwin, Adelaide and Brisbane, where they operate alongside our e-scooters. Their introduction will support the city’s sustainability goals, providing riders with greater access to environmentally-friendly transport options, also boosting the local economy, creating around 15 jobs locally and the option to expand based on demand.

Neuron e-bikes are GPS-connected and geofenced to control riding areas, parking spaces and top speed (up to 25kms in most areas). Riders will benefit from the same cutting-edge safety features brought over from our e-scooter technology, including the world’s first app-controlled helmet-lock that secures to the e-bike in between trips; topple detection; 000 emergency button; voice guidance to educate and warn riders on how to ride safely; and ‘Follow my Ride’ function.

New riders can download our user-friendly app, from the App Store or Google Play and set it up in a matter of minutes. Standard Single trips will cost AU$1 to unlock the e-bike and 45 cents per minute thereafter. More frequent users have the option to purchase Neuron Passes, which are available in three-day (AU$25), weekly (AU$33), or monthly (AU$45) options. The packages will allow users to ride as many times as they want for up to 90 minutes per day for a fixed affordable price. This will result in no additional unlocking fees and savings of up to 96%.
