Martha's Bike Rentals outfits visitors in Oak Bluffs with the Serfas eDash, a trekking-style electric bike built for island riding: pedal-assist and throttle power, oversized tires and a 30–40 mile range. With shop locations adjacent to the ferries and island-wide delivery, the operator doubles as a local guide — offering route planning and recommendations so you can stitch together restaurants, breweries, lighthouses and national historical sites into a day or multi-day ride.

Outing Highlights

THE BIKE

Long-range eTrekking

The Serfas eDash pairs pedal assist with a throttle and delivers an advertised 30–40 mile range, making it practical for full-day loops or multi-day island exploration.

THE SERVICE

Island-wide delivery and local knowledge

Martha’s Bike Rentals operates next to all ferries and offers delivery across the island; the staff are island natives who provide route planning and recommendations for where to eat and what to see.

THE ROUTE OPTIONS

Tailor-made rides from short days to multi-day loops

Rentals are flexible — daily rentals are available and the setup suits one-day circuits or extended 1–7 day bookings so riders can connect Oak Bluffs to other island towns and sites.

What the day feels like

How the ride feels

Mounted on a Serfas eDash, island riding feels purposeful and fast without being frantic: the throttle gives a steady push on headlands and climbs while pedal-assist extends range across town-to-town stretches. With oversized tires the bike is forgiving on mixed pavement and unforgiving island gusts are less daunting when you know you can cover 30–40 miles on a charge. Martha’s Bike Rentals supplements the hardware with route advice and optional delivery so you spend time exploring rather than logistics.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this rental suits — and who should consider alternatives.

1
Active ExplorersIdeal: riders who want to cover considerable ground and stitch together coastal views, towns and sites across the island using an eBike’s extended range.
2
Families with teensGood fit if children are 16 or older; younger riders cannot operate the electric bikes and may need a separate pedal bike solution.
3
Casual SightseersSuitable for visitors who prefer shorter outings: daily rentals make it easy to use the eDash for a single day of sightseeing without committing to multi-day bookings.
4
GroupsGroups can rent multiple bikes and should call for group discounts; delivery across the island simplifies meeting logistics for dispersed parties.
