Do I need a motorcycle license or registration to ride a Beachman?

Beachman bikes meet all federal requirements for a motor assisted bicycle, and therefore do not require a motorcycle license, insurance, or registration in all provinces but British Columbia and Quebec. However, Beachman strongly recommends that you get your motorcycle license or participate in professional motorcycle road safety training in your area to ensure your personal safety on the road. You should also check your local provincial guidelines on E Bikes before purchasing to ensure that you will be within the law riding your bike, as each province regulates E-Bikes in their own unique way. In Quebec, you can register your Beachman ’64 as a moped and ride it at 70kph. British Columbia requires additional certification which we are currently developing, allowing us to release a new model which will be an LSM (Limited-Speed Motorcycle), similar to a 50cc moped or scooter. These LSM spec Beachmans will have a 70kph top speed, no pedals, and will require a driver's license + moped insurance.

Do I need to wear a helmet?

Absolutely. You should be wearing a full face, DOT approved motorcycle helmet at all times while riding. It is a federal offence in Canada to ride any E-Bike without a helmet.

What are the specifications?

You can see all of the product specifications on The Bike page on our website.

Can I recycle my Beachman Battery?

Absolutely! We've partnered with Li-Cycle to offer recycling services to all customers. More info on them at www.li-cycle.com

Can I buy a Beachman outside of Canada?

Yes! Beachman now ships across Canada and the United States, with Europe on the roadmap.

Where is the location of my VIN?

Your VIN is located on the left side of your steering column, engraved in the black metal. Be sure to write it down somewhere safe, like a phone contact or backed up document in the event of your bike being lost or stolen.

What is the best way to keep my tires pumped?

Pump your tires using a standard bicycle pump with a pressure gauge. Beachman tires vary in PSI so check the side of your tire for the desired (maximum) PSI.
