Looking for real feedback before buying an electric bike in New Zealand?
At MeloYelo, we don’t just build electric bikes – we build community. We recently asked our Facebook customer group to share their honest experiences riding a MeloYelo ebike. The results were inspiring, heartwarming, and at times hilarious.
If you’re considering a MeloYelo, these stories will show you exactly why thousands of riders across NZ say it’s the best decision they’ve made.
“It’s freedom whenever” – Elizabeth
When asked to describe their MeloYelo electric bikes in three words, our community gave us everything from “My happy place” to “Feel 12 again!” These short phrases say a lot – MeloYelo riders are out there rediscovering freedom, energy, and adventure.
“I haven’t done this since I was a kid” – Leanne
Many of our riders say their e-bikes help them feel younger and more active. Tracey shared, “Riding takes me back to my childhood summer freedom,” and Barbara told us, “I’m always at least 10 years younger when I hop on my bike!”
With powerful pedal assist, even hilly terrain becomes enjoyable. It’s no wonder people are saying MeloYelo bikes are the key to staying active, regardless of age.
“I have noticed a huge improvement” – Ron
After a double knee replacement, Ron started riding his MeloYelo ebike 20-30km every weekend, and saw a major improvement in mobility. These bikes aren’t just for fun; they support health, fitness, and mental wellbeing.
Riders like Michelle, Karen, and Greg all shared how their MeloYelo gave them confidence, helped with joint pain, and pushed them to stay active.
“So much more independence” – Jan
For Jan and many others, their MeloYelo ebike is more than just a ride – it’s freedom. Whether it’s campervan holidays, scenic rides, or commuting when driving isn’t an option, our customers love how their bikes fit into everyday life.
As Lynette put it: “My bike gives me an opportunity to get out, be with nature, have some quality downtime, and be grateful for all I have.”
