Why Orbit City eBikes why was this picked
Orbit City eBikes on Indianola Avenue calls itself Columbus's first and most experienced locally owned electric bike shop, and electric is all it sells. It keeps more than 25 models in stock across nine brands, Gazelle among them, and offers free test rides every day it is open, bookable online. The site makes a fitness case for e-bikes, arguing riders still get exercise while going faster and farther. Hours are short: noon to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, noon to 5 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday.
