Eugene Electric Bicycles Wants You to Feel the Woo
The area's oldest e-bike shop is on a mission to show Lane County riders what electric cycling is all about.
A Shop Built on Know-How
Eugene Electric Bicycles has been around longer than any other e-bike shop in the area, and the team leans on that experience every day. The shop is independently and family-owned, and it stakes its reputation on its mechanics, describing them as the technicians other shops call when a job gets complicated.
What an E-Bike Actually Is
The shop is quick to demystify the product it sells. An e-bike, they'll tell you, is just a bicycle, one that happens to offer a little help when you need it. That help comes in two forms: pedal assist, which takes the strain out of pedaling, and a throttle option that provides instant thrust and, in their words, takes you places you have never been before.
“If you have not ridden an e-bike before, come experience the woo with us and we'll show you what it's all about.”

Come Experience the Woo
The shop has a name for that jolt of excitement new riders feel the first time they take an e-bike out: the woo. It's the reason they invite anyone who hasn't tried one yet to stop in for a ride. E-bikes, they say, are more than fun, they're exhilarating, the kind of thing that makes the hair on your arms stand up.
Rooted in the Northwest
For the people behind the shop, Eugene and the surrounding area isn't just a business address, it's home. They point to the greenery, the seasons, and a local trail network that already stretches to more than 300 miles, with more in the works. It's a place, they say, they plan to stay for many years to come.
