Shrewsbury Moves eBike Subscription

Join the waiting list
Thanks to funding from the UK Government, the Shrewsbury Big Town Plan (SBTP) partnership has partnered with eBike subscription specialist Hurrecane Bikes to provide subsidised eBike hire to Shrewsbury residents and workers.
Our subscription-based model will allow users to rent a bike from Hurrecane Bikes at a sizeable discount - under £3 a week (less than a coffee!) for the first 6 months and £5 per week from months 7-12 (for a minimum of 12 months). That’s a saving of £420 over the course of the year.
We want to help Shrewsbury residents and workers save money, keep fit and try something different when it comes to commuting. Here’s what’s included:
Top-notch Electric Commuter Bike: In step through, hybrid or accessible design options, up to 50 miles per charge, Shrewsbury Moves branded
All the Essentials: Helmet, lock, optional pannier rack and child seat
Ongoing Support: Aside from punctures, your subscription covers the costs of all non-accident or misuse repairs, services, tyres, brakes, batteries, motors etc, plus a lifetime warranty on the complete eBike
Our first round of eBike applications has now closed, after receiving over 450 submissions! We have allocated our first 120 bikes and successful applicants will be notified shortly. However we are accepting applications to join the waiting list for a future round of applications as we pursue funding to expand the scheme to more users.

Who can join the waitlist?
If you are resident in Shropshire, access Shrewsbury town centre on a regular basis, and would use an eBike for your regular commute into or out of the town, you are eligible to apply.
Demand has been very strong for this service, giving us a strong foundation to apply for further funding, and we are hopeful we will reopen for applications in 2025.
The application only takes a few minutes and does not require you to commit to a contract at this stage.
