We’re Forest, London’s homegrown shared ebike. What started as an idea in a London pub garden in 2019, is now the largest shared ebike operator in the capital, by operating area.
Our mission is to move people around cities without costing the earth (in more ways than one). We’re the most affordable shared ebike with up to 30 minute rides for £1, and the most sustainable too by powering our bikes and service vehicles with 100% zero carbon energy.
