Interesting idea for urban bike renters... probably cheaper than the rates to rent by the day or event. ![Wink ;) ;)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)

Revel may have made its name in pay-by-the-minute electric moped rentals, but now the company is targeting longer-term rentals on smaller electric vehicles: e-bikes. Revel announced today a new monthly subscription service called Coast by Revel that will offer electric bicycles to riders for $99/month. The price includes drop-off and pickup of the e-bike, an included lock and any necessary maintenance or repairs. If maintenance is required, a Revel team member will arrive within 24 hours to repair the e-bike. Riders can rent the e-bikes month-to-month and cancel at any time. The e-bikes can reach up to 20 mph (32 km/h) on pedal assist or throttle, and can cover as much as 45 miles (72 km) on a single charge. If the battery does run out during a ride, the e-bike can still be pedaled just like a standard bicycle.
