Top 6 E-Bike Gift Ideas for Mother's Day

Mother’s Day is around the corner. Celebrated annually on the second Sunday of May, the event is happening on 12 May 2024. If your mom has an electric bike, or you plan to get the best ebike for moms, e-bike accessories are great gift ideas. Products like helmets, carry baskets, and GPS trackers can enhance the safety, comfort, and convenience of her riding experience.

Here are 6 e-bike gift ideas to spoil mom this Mother’s Day.

Electric Bike Helmet

An electric bike helmet is like a conventional helmet but with some key differences. They typically have unique design aspects, such as better ventilation and built-in LED lighting (front or rear). Another point of difference is the Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS), which is technology to help reduce rotational injuries on the brain.

Does your mom need a new ebike helmet? Consider the Mountain Cycling Helmet from Heybike. With a head circumference range of 58 to 61cm, the adjustable snug belt can ensure the perfect fit for most adults. Plus, the shell has several ventilation holes to reduce sweating. Also, check out the Urban Ebike Helmet, which has a stylish round design and is available in medium and large.

Comfortable Bike Seat

Bike seats (saddles) for women cater to the unique anatomical needs of female riders. They tend to be wider and more padded than male saddles, as women often sit further back on the seat than men. They also have shorter noses at the front, which helps relieve pressure on the seat bones (sit bones).

The most comfortable bike seat matches your riding style and the width of your seat bones. A comfy seat is one of many top features moms will love when it comes to e-cycling. For this reason, consider taking your mom to a local e-shop store or researching online together to make an informed choice.

The Anatomic HD Saddle from Heybike is an excellent saddle for female riders. It is compatible with all Heybike eBikes (excluding Brawn) and has high-density padding for extra support.

Cargo Bike Accessories

Most electric bikes support front- and rear-mounted carry baskets. These baskets allow your mom to transport personal items, groceries, and children. Rear-mounted baskets have a maximum payload capacity of 120 lbs.

You can also treat your mom to a pet bike basket so that she can bike with her furry friend. The basket has a shrink rope design inside to keep pets safe and secure, and the highly breathable PVC mesh provides excellent airflow from all angles.

Need even more cargo space? The bike rack pannier bag has two 15L capacity side pockets. It is also easy to install, with four shelf straps and buckles for easy mounting. This is an excellent Mother’s Day gift idea for moms who love long-distance e-cycling and camping.

Cycling Skorts

Cycling skorts combine the benefits of conventional skirts and shorts into one. They are more feminine than shorts, allowing female riders to remain stylish and elegant while e-cycling. Cycling skorts typically comprise two components: the shorts portion (made of stretchy, moisture-wicking fabrics), and a skirt portion that hangs over the shorts in different lengths.

When shopping for cycling skorts, choose the right size and desired skirt length. Some cycling skorts have adjustable waistbands, which provides some size flexibility. Also, get one with built-in pockets in the shorts portion so your mom can store her smartphone or other essentials.

Bike Shoes

Bike shoes help make e-cycling safer, easier, and more fun by allowing riders to transfer more power from their feet to the pedals. Uniquely designed to conform anatomically to feet, bike shoes can be secured with laces or Velcro-adjustable straps, providing a snug fit and hours-long comfort while endurance riding.
Like we said before, size and style are vital when shopping for e-cycling attire. Pick bike shoes that are comfortable, highly ventilated, and easy to take on and off. Common sole materials include carbon and nylon composite, while fastening systems like BOA dials will give your mom the most precise, comfortable fit possible.

GPS Trackers

Looking for more great gift ideas? GPS trackers are an effective way to deter thieves and track your e-bike’s location in real-time. They are typically passive devices, which you install discretely onto your electric bike – under the seat, within the handlebars – and track via a smartphone app.

When the device detects unauthorized movement, it immediately sends an alert to your device and updates its location every few minutes. Some have alarms that trigger a loud noise (like a house alarm) upon detecting suspicious movement. Ideally, choose a GPS tracker that is both discrete and easy for your mom to use – especially if she needs to learn how to use a separate app.

Spoil Mom This Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is the perfect time of year to spoil mom with something special. Show how much you love and care for her – with a gift to take her e-cycling experience to the next level. Regardless of her experience and skill level, these accessories are a fantastic way to make her rides safer, more comfortable, and – most importantly – more thrilling.
