london's homegrown ebike

Cycle across 20 London boroughs on London's homegrown shared ebike

Forest started as an idea in a London pub garden in 2019, with a mission to move people around the city without costing the earth (in more ways than one).

Forest is one of the cheapest ways to get around London. We give our riders up to 30 minutes free riding time on every pay as you go ride, meaning you can enjoy riding for as little as £1. Plus, we have unbeatable value in our pre-paid passes and subscriptions.We're also the most sustainable.

We power our ebikes and service fleet with 100% zero-carbon energy, and we're proud to be B Corp certified.
