An e-bike resembles a regular bicycle, with its batteries and electric motor integrated into the bike’s frame. Enthusiasts see e-bikes on national park trails as a great thing, but some traditional riders and environmentalists see big problems ahead.

The Atlanta City Council recently allocated $1 million in funding for the city’s first-ever e-bike rebate program.

The Atlanta E-Bike Rebate Program was created through a partnership between the City of Atlanta, the Atlanta Regional Commission and Propel ATL.

The program, which is set to launch this spring, will offer up to $2,000 toward an e-bike for an income-qualifying resident. Smaller rebates will apply for residents above the income requirement.
