MeloYelo's Nelson dealer is an e-bike seller in Stoke, at 3 Woolshed Drive, and it works by appointment. The website names David Morrison-Jones as the local agent, who runs the Nelson side from home. Test rides of up to an hour are offered away from busy city streets, so people can try different models on the coast and in the hills. Personal consultations are held in person. The website says the bikes have a three-year warranty (terms apply), thumb throttles on most models, and a larger battery than most e-bikes. Mudguards, lights and a carrier are listed as essential accessories.
Customers say David gave good advice and help after the sale, and one buyer says they love their new bike. The website describes Nelson's mix of coast, river and hills, and says an e-bike makes longer rides and steeper changes in terrain more manageable. Our pick in Stoke for an e-bike test ride on Nelson's coast and hills.
