Edinburgh e-bike company Ezeepedal is on a roll after reporting a major increase in demand from visitors around the world.

Founder John Harrisonch­urch piloted the venture in the city last year and has been growing the business in areas including Google analytics, website management and digital marketing thanks to support from Business Gateway Edinburgh. That has led to a major increase in bookings this summer.

Harrison-church

said:

“This year we have seen a rise in group bookings, families, independen­t and business travellers, and locals too looking for a fun, alternativ­e way to enjoy the city.”

Susan Harkins, head of Business Gateway Edinburgh, added: “The city has so many incredible places to see, many of them uphill and what better way to do it than on an ecofriendl­y bike where everyone in the group can travel at the same pace and enjoy the wonders that our city has to offer at the same time.”
