I had a bike converted to electric at my home. Friendly, efficient, great product. It was all good.

RevBecca is the best converter of bikes to electric. The only ebike retailer in Australia to design and deliver an electric bike mechanic course. Past secretary of ATA EV GROUP and just a sound operator. Knowledgeable and honest. Best in the business.

Super-heroes! Recently had my bike converted by this dynamic duo and it has changed my life!! Living in the hilly region of Warrandyte my 250w motor now makes riding up hill and down dale a pleasure rather than a show-stopper. I can now get out and about around town and leave my car in the garage - which is healthier for the both me and planet! Great service and great gear - it all just works.

REV Bikes gave me all the time and advice I needed to get my bike tailored to exactly what I required. The flexibility and combinations of parts available was really surprising, meaning I didn't have to put up with a "one-size-fits-none" kit. And I was really stoked to be able to use my own bike and not have to buy another one! This first bike has clocked about 2,500km and is still going strong. Meanwhile, I'm working on my third REV-sourced project; just for fun.

High quality motors, controllers & batteries, including custom built e-bike batteries. Fantastic customer service, with neat and professional fitting of kits onto normal bikes. These people are definitely both passionate about and highly experienced in working with electric bikes, including repairs and battery repacks. They will build your perfect e-bike, much cheaper than buying one off the shelf. Give them a go, you won't be disappointed!

The old e-bike set up on my partners bike had started to play up. We had planned a trip to central Australia. I contacted REV bikes they did a great job replacing the old setup and had it fixed 3 days before we head off my partner is wrapped she just loves the bike. Thank you Rebecca.

I had my bike converted to electric by Rev, and it has been fantastic! Gives me a choice over how hard I choose to work on the bike, as I use it for commuting. Team is very responsive and repairs are reasonably priced.

Our retro-fitted REV Electric bike is ace! It has become our second car. It's heaps powerful enough to carry my daughter (in a child seat) and son (with his bike hitched up with a FollowMe tandem tagalong) up the steep hill to our house. REV Bikes has always been helpful when we needed to adjust the set up to suit our needs. Thanks REV!

Jennifer Gibson

20:34 13 Mar 19

Revbecca did an awesome job on my e-beast, she retro fitted a more powerful motor onto an existing e-bike and now I get to work in the same time on my bike as when I drive. She’s incredibly helpful and spent ages talking us through all of our options. Definitely recommend for a tailored personal service.

Elise Berry

21:49 13 Mar 19

A very friendly, helpful and great little company. Nothing is too much trouble and aftercare service is excellent. They converted my existing bike into an eBike and I'm thrilled with my newfound freedom! Had a slightly more powerful battery fitted which gives me peace of mind to go anywhere for a comfortable distance of at least 100km and can highly recommend them to anyone interested to do likewise.

I purchased an electric bike from Rebecca at REV Electric Bikes. Rebecca's spent heaps of time explaining the various types of bikes. I was able to test ride a couple of bikes before making up my mind which bike I would purchase. REV arranged for a Giant Bike to be purchased and delivered to them and they fitted the kit to it. The bike has been excellent and the service at delivery was great. I am a very happy customer

I have great experience with Rev Bikes, Beck is a key person and did a fabulous job in advising and building me Rev Bike electric onto my bike. It has been a great success and I enjoy riding with it. I have clocked up nearly 1000Km and worn out two back tires. I am very happy to recommend Rev Bikes to anyone looking to going electric on a bike

If you have a special project, these are people you must get to do it ? They have expert knowledge, friendly, professional and love what they do. This makes all the difference. They did an awesome job fir my electric cargo bike that was my primary means if Transport. It needed to be 200% reliable and it was. You can’t do better and do take the time to let them give you options and do it methodically.

Ted Houston

As a 60 plus male with coronary disease, I was scared of riding my bike again. Yesterday I rode 25 kilometers knowing I could "turn on the electricity" if need be. Beck was great to deal with, and she had great product knowledge. I will recommend her business to family and friends. I feel fitter already

Great work to convert an adult full size stand up cargo scooter to a versatile electric vehicle. Loads of torque to get up hills and very reliable. Rebecca and the team are always available to answer questions and resolve any challenges. I have recommended friends and colleagues. A highly professional service.

Got myself a brand new bike fully decked out with Beck’s electric kit. Best bike I’ve ever had. Runs super well. I now ride it to work near the CBD most days. It’s so good having the electric drive take the edge off the ride home from the South-Westerly’s. Most of all, you feel like you’re getting more out of life by riding along the beach and the Yarra with lots of coffee shops to choose from along the way. Way better than sitting in traffic in a cocoon called the car. Highly recommend Beck and her team.

We are a huge ebike household here are one of very loved bikes which was a converted Lekker hit some major trouble. None of our regular ebike mechanics could help but Stu from Velo suggested Rev. Excellent service from start to finish. This particular bike will now be going back to Rev for all it's needs for the rest of it's days. What a find!

Meredith Stevens

05:25 07 Jan 20

Love my ebike! Rebecca and crew did a fabulous job. Lots of consultation and good advice prior to converting my beloved old giant. Heaps of fun to ride - great to know I can still get up those hills on the way home from a ride!

Anita Ellis

02:07 25 Jan 20

All I can say is that Rev Bikes knows what customer service is, and they have great products to back it up. I picked up my conversion yesterday and have already been on a 30k ride with the boys ( you know the ones that ride fast and hard). Kept up ok. Still got lots to learn to be fully confident but having the ebike makes it so much easier. Thank you Rebecca and the team.

Deborah Kelly

09:43 19 Mar 20

Rebecca patiently explained and introduced me to the options available for my bike conversion. After testing mid drive and hub motors a few times, I was sold. They took my bike for a few days and transformed, as promised, my bike into a more versatile transport option. Thanks RevBecca and Adam

Murray Saunder

07:53 09 Apr 20

Revbecca’s response to my email enquiry was: “The bike looks straightforward enough, it will end up a beauty once we've given it some wings!” From there I knew this was going to be a good experience! Product knowledge and customer service cannot be faulted. From enquiry to a bike with “wings” was under a week. Thanks Rev! My wife is looking forward to rediscovering cycling.

I finally have my cycling life back now that I have this fantastic eBike. It's as if it was made specifically for me. Being able to buy from a local business and being able to test ride it made for a great buying experience. Bec really knows her stuff and obviously loves what she does. This is the place to buy an eBike or to have your current bike converted to one.

John Perkins

10:48 09 Jun 20

Rebecca was fantastic. The electrification of my oldish bike is fantastic. She knew what I needed and provided the best option. Cannot speak highly enough of Rev Bikes and Becca!

Had an absolute awesome experience with Rev EBikes Their knowledge was fantastic, no question was to hard to answer, the explanation on bike up was first class & after i went for the test ride & asked for something to be twicked there wasn't one argument Rebecca made the change straight away without any questions, fantastic customer service. I would recommend anyone thinking of getting an EBike or considering getting a pre-existing bike modified to give REV-Bikes a call you wont be disappointed

Marie Flanagan

Rebecca’s knowledge of electrical conversion made decision making very easy, I am now able to ride up hills at ease on my Tern folding bike and particularly love the fact that my bike is not really heavy weighs approx 15kgs with battery can also take seat out with battery for a lighter lift into car very happy thank you Rebecca love it

Paul Clark

Went for a few test rides today. Haven't ridden for 30 years, was a bit nervous Great having the bike path so close to the shop. The last test ride up hill to Rooks Rd on full power was a blast. Not much effort hunting down a lycra wearing racer like Mr Bean, had me smiling so much., total crackup. Rebecca is super friendly with great advice and information. She has some excellent youtube videos up. Probably good to have a watch before you go, to save her some time. Didn't really intend to buy a bike today, but haven't had such a buzz for years, instant sale. Very lucky to have this shop so close.

Leo Kao

06:35 03 Feb 21

I'd recommend anyone that is thinking about an electric form of transport to stop here first. Recently had my belt driven commuter bike fitted with a front hub motor. Rev-becca was extremely helpful, clear, communicative all through the whole process. Impeccable customer service even through post sale. Any issues were quickly ironed out and I am extremely happy and satisfied. Thank you Rev-becca and team.

Whilst they did repair my battery they sacrificed my working battery charger in the process and charged me an extra $80 for a replacement. I understand that mistakes can be made, but it's how you respond to them that really matters. I asked for an explanation but never received one.

I recently engaged Rev Bikes (Nunawading branch) to amplify my Norco Storm mountain bike with a Bafang 750 watt mid-drive system, 20 ah battery, hard-wired front and rear lights and a larger Lekkie chain ring. The build was completed several days before the quoted time, with the final look of the bike being much slicker than expected, given the amount of wiring and engineering match-ups to the existing drive train. Initially dealing with Revbecca, I was encouraged by them to specify exactly what my needs would be from the system, the (at times confusing) details being explained to me simply and cheerfully. The bike has performed smoothly and without issue thus far, the pairing of the electric motor, battery and accessories needing no attention from me. When I have called Rev with detailed questions about the system, they have been very helpfull in their after-sales service. Thanks Rev Bikes, for your old-school friendliness and cycle professionalism!

I converted a good dual suspension mountain bike, into an awesome e-bike. Buying the same "named" bike would have cost me thousands more. There is nothing subtle about a 19.6 aH battery, but my bike still looks like a bike, feels like a bike, and gets me to work without needing a shower.

Helen Gwilliam

I had a conversion kit added to my recumbent Greenspeed handtrike. Rebekah was so helpful and enthusiastic, online and in person. The conversion has really changed my enjoyment of the trike. I can go further, my partner doesn't have to help me at steep points, I feel safer in traffic because of the boost. Just far more independence. Have just been for a trip to the High Country, cycling from the top of Mt Buffalo to Myrtleford, with battery still half-full at the end. Highly recommended.

I recently had my pedal bike converted over to an electric assist bike by REV Bikes in Nunawading, it has made my cycling experience so much more enjoyable especially on hills. Rebecca and Kate were fantastic our whole experience with Rev Bikes has been amazing. Their customer service skills are excellent, as is their knowledge of converting standard bikes to electric assisted bikes. I would wholeheartedly recommend Rev Bikes to anyone considering converting their existing pedal bike to an electric bike. REV Bikes extensive knowledge in this field and their customer care and after sales service is excellent. You can deal with them in confidence. Well done REV Bikes, thanks for a quality conversion

Quote was $800-$900 to replace my eBike moped looking eBike. Asked battery shop and they exchanged batteries within the compartment for $200. REV took atvange of how I didn’t realise the compartment could be opened then switch out the existing 4 deep cycle lead-acid batteries with new ones. A “custom build” to lithium was a complete sham. Spoke with Michelle.

Had an issue with my electric bike (not purchased from them). They quickly identified the problem and fixed it. Excellent service and knowledge by the girls. Couldn't be happier with the outcome. ? A big thankyou!

I'm not a complete newby, I do have some experience in bike mechanics etc. This field can be fairly beguiling for novices. I can say, that if you are considering an e-conversion, then you can approach Rev-Bikes with confidence. Their knowledge is extensive, their advice is honest and on the money, and they take pride in their work. A very neat conversion performed. And the product combination selection (motor, chainring, battery, and other) for the conversion completely satisfies the required use of the bike.

Andrew Boskovic

I've been keeping my eye on getting an eBike conversion for around 5 years now and specifically been eyeing out REV during that time. I've seen similar places sprout up over the years, some survive, some don't. The one thing I've seen with REV is they've been doing these conversions for a looooooong time - they know what they're doing, they've been around forever and they're going to be there in the years going forward ... why? Because they're actually really good. When I went in, I did have a rough idea of what I wanted/needed. But Rebecca was absolutely fantastic. Professional, skilled, knowledgeable and welcoming - and above all - comes with years of experience and clearly a passion for what she does. I've had my converted eBike for nearly a week now and seriously could not be happier. Superb service, loving my bike! And for anyone that's curious - go down for a test ride with REV. An eBike is an absolute game changer! Thank you Rebecca!
