What electric bike can hold a dog?
Yes, Wombi electric bikes are safe for riding with a pet, when using our pet carrier. Our e-bikes are built for stability and safety, keeping your dog secure and comfortable when going for a ride. If your dog has never been on a bike before, we suggest starting out with short rides first and letting them adjust. Therefore, unlike the e-bike, it is classed as a motor vehicle under road traffic legislation. However, it does not comply with the construction and use regulations (for instance, a registration plate and rear-facing lights) like other motor vehicles, so it is illegal on our roads.There is no law to say that you and your dog are not allowed to ride on the road, but The Highway Code, section 68, says it is illegal to ride a bike in a “dangerous, careless or inconsiderate manner”.
How to carry a dog on an EBike?
A trailer bike attachment is a very safe and comfortable way to take your dog on your bike with you; so for longer journeys we would suggest this is the leader of the pack when it comes to options! I would advise to only let your dog run alongside you off their lead if they are 100% reliable with their recall and only in quiet, secluded locations. Otherwise, you might choose to use a dog bike tow lead. A bike lead reacts to your dog’s movements, like an extra arm mounted on your bike.
