I am thrilled with my new e-bike! I took advantage of the great weather and took it for a fantastic spin today. The staff at Lewes Cycle Sports is friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and patient. Megan, especially, took great care of us. I have already recommended the shop to a friend who is looking for an e-bike. The owners, Megan and Brian Kellman are great to work with — as is the whole staff. I’ll continue to go to the shop for my bike needs and wants! As well as sales, the shop rents bikes. It’s near the beach and not far from the Cape Henlopen State Park. Rent an e-bike and see what you think!
