In addition you can enter to win a $4,000 electric bike from Tempo Bicycles and learn more about the latest electric bikes by talking directly to the manufacturer reps.

Plus, the solar eclipse is on August 21st and a section of Oregon south of Portland is in the path of total eclipse…..

At the Portland Expo there will be wide variety of brands and many different eBikes to choose from: commuter bikes, mountain bikes, touring bikes, cruiser bikes, fat bikes, folding bikes & more!

And terrain features to test the suspension of some of the eBikes.

Many of the models are new to the US and here to be tested by you for the very first time!

Here is a link to the Portland Expo page where you can pre-register and get updates. 

The E-Bike Expo events are free to attend and there are no sales that happen at Expo events to keep them fun and informative.

If you are interested in buying an electric bike, many of the exhibitors are offering discount coupons at the Expo that can be redeemed at local eBike dealers.

In addition to discounts there is the possibility of winning an electric bike!

Tempo Bicycles will be raffling off one of their Carmel or Santa Barbara hybrid electric bicycles worth $4,000 to a lucky winner.

The raffle proceeds will benefit local Portland area charities. The raffle tickets are $5 each and can be purchased at the Expo.
