There’s definitely some customizations operators can choose, here’s an example of a bike with a basket and New York also has docks that charge e-bikes—I think they’re also supplied by Lyft Urban Solutions/PBSC.

We already have docks that charge e-bikes I believe, if you go to https://tor.publicbikesystem.net/ube/gbfs/v1/en/station_information and search for "is_charging_station":true you get 26 hits, so very few but they exist.

P.S. if anyone is interested I go to that link every couple of weeks and scroll to the bottom to see if there are any new stations, though @Northern Light is usually in top of updating this thread.

However today I see there may be a brand new ones at Lawrence and Marlee by Lawrence West station AND at Eglinton West station.

@elcorrerador FYI Scarborough Go Station has been added back. Capacity of 23 with 15 e-bikes, 0 mechanical available as of 4:12 PM

By noting same, you also brought 2 other new stations to my attention! (thanks)

Eglinton West Station:

and

Lawrence and Marlee:

That leaves 4 more stations to meet this year's target.

This appears to be one of the stations that charges e-bikes.

This will go nicely along with https://www.toronto.ca/community-pe...tructure-projects/beltline-trail-gap-project/ (which I assume is still a go given no car lanes are being take away) and the current bike lanes on Marlee. There will be bike infrastructure between these two stations all the way along Marlee. Now whether eglintonTOday happens to connect the Eglinton West station to Marlee is I guess more of a question .
