FREE round-trip e-cargo bike pilot now on the North Shore!

We’ve partnered with the District and City of North Vancouver to bring e-cargo bikes to the North Shore for FREE. Hop on now until the end of October, and be on the lookout for the e-cargo bikes back on the streets in March 2025. Evolve E-Cargo Bikes can be booked up to 30 days in advance at selected North Shore public libraries or Multi-Unit Residential Buildings, just pick up and drop off at the same location.

How it works

Public Libraries

	Download the Evo app and sign up Pro tip: select 'e-bikes/e-scooters’ if you don’t need car share to skip driver’s license requirement
	Book an e-cargo bike by clicking the ‘Evo Return’ tab in-app up to 30 days in advance
	Show your booking confirmation at the library counter to grab the bike, keys and grocery bags (if needed) at your reserved time and spot
	Check safety info on-site or online, wear a helmet and start rolling
	Go anywhere on the North Shore, then end your trip back at the same location you started

*Only same-day rentals are available during the pilot. Late returns and no-shows may result in fines.

Multi-Unit Residential Buildings

E-Cargo bikes at residential buildings are for tenants only. If you’re in one of the participating buildings, contact your property manager for details.
