Quick Answer Grande Prairie has one verified electric-bike storefront as of June 2026 — Ernie's Sports Experts (11500 100 Street), an authorized Trek, Electra and Giant dealer with a full service centre and an e-bikes collection. We list only what we can confirm. The city's other long-time bike shop, Fourword Bike and Board, has closed and become a branding business, so it is no longer a place to buy or service an e-bike. The rule to know is Parkland Bylaw C-1310: e-bikes are welcome on the City's parklands, pathways and trails if you ride at a reasonable speed, keep right, signal when passing and carry no passengers. Alberta follows the federal Power-Assisted Bicycle framework (500W, 32 km/h, working pedals); the minimum age is 12 and a helmet is required for every e-bike rider — see our Alberta eBike laws guide for the full picture.

How We Verified This Directory Every storefront was cross-referenced across Google Maps, the shop's own current website, Trek's official dealer locator, yellowpages.ca, Pinkbike's bike-shop directory and independent listings (June 2026), and listed only when at least two independent sources confirmed it currently sells or services e-bikes in Grande Prairie. We did not pad the count: Grande Prairie is a smaller market with thin dedicated e-bike retail, and a directory that invents shops to look fuller would fail the reader at the worst moment — when they drive across town. Where a shop has closed or changed business, we say so and why: Fourword Bike and Board has rebranded to a promotional-apparel business (Supertee Brand Builder) at the same address, and its former web domain no longer serves bike-shop content, so we do not link it. Top Gear Cycles is a motorcycle/powersports dealer, not an e-bike shop, and is excluded. Every bylaw statement is tied to a named primary source: the City of Grande Prairie's Parkland Bylaw C-1310 page and parks-safety page, the City's Traffic Bylaw C-1166 page, and Alberta's power-bicycle rules as documented in our sourced Alberta eBike laws guide. Where we could not extract a bylaw's full text (the Traffic Bylaw PDF), we flag the gap rather than assert a rule. This directory is re-verified every six months.

Grande Prairie's e-bike retail scene is small — one storefront you can walk into today and reliably buy or service an electric bike. That is the market, not a gap in our research. The Peace Country's biggest city has a real cycling community and a network of parkland pathways, but its bike retail has thinned: Fourword Bike and Board, for years the other name in town, has closed and become a branding shop, and the only motorsport-style dealer in the listings sells motorcycles, not e-bikes. So this directory names the one shop that counts, tells you what happened to the one that didn't, and walks through the rules that decide where you can ride once the bike is yours. In Grande Prairie those rules live in Parkland Bylaw C-1310 — and most new owners have never read them.

The Verified eBike Shop in Grande Prairie

Grande Prairie has one verified electric-bike storefront as of June 2026: Ernie's Sports Experts at 11500 100 Street, (780) 539-6262. It is an authorized Trek, Electra and Giant dealer with a full bike department and an on-site service centre — the city's reliable in-person source to buy or repair an e-bike.

Ernie's Sports Experts — 11500 100 Street

Address: 11500 100 Street, Grande Prairie, AB T8V 4C2
Phone: (780) 539-6262
Website: ernies.ca
Brands: Trek and Electra (authorized dealer), Giant; e-bike models include Electra and Trek electric lines
Hours: Mon-Wed 9 am-6 pm · Thu-Fri 9 am-9 pm · Sat 9 am-6 pm · Sun 12 pm-5 pm (confirm seasonally)

Focus: A long-standing Grande Prairie sporting-goods retailer with a full bike department, Ernie's is the city's reliable in-person source for electric bikes. It is an authorized Trek and Electra dealer (Electra is owned by Trek) and carries Giant, with a published e-bikes collection and a service centre staffed for fit and repair. If you want to test-ride an e-bike, talk to a human about sizing, or have a bike serviced without shipping it away, this is the room to walk into. Call ahead to confirm which electric models are in stock before a special trip.

Why one well-stocked shop can be enough A single authorized dealer with a real service department can serve a rider better than several sellers without one. Ernie's carries name-brand e-bikes (Trek, Electra, Giant) backed by manufacturer warranties and an on-site mechanic — which matters more than shop count when something needs adjusting two months in. The verified detail here is confirmed by Trek's official dealer locator and the shop's own live e-bikes collection page (June 2026). Hours can shift with the season, so phone first.

Grande Prairie Shop Takeaway For an in-person e-bike with a service centre behind it, there is one clear answer in Grande Prairie: Ernie's Sports Experts (11500 100 Street, (780) 539-6262) — Trek, Electra and Giant. Call ahead to confirm the model you want is in stock. Don't drive to Fourword's old address expecting bikes; that shop has closed.

Only one local shop? You still have options. Many Canadian brands ship straight to Grande Prairie.

If the model you want isn't on the floor at Ernie's, online Canadian retailers deliver to the Peace Country — just buy from one that meets the 500W / 32 km/h PAB standard and offers real support. Our guide on how to spot a legit eBike store shows exactly what to check first.

What Closed — Fourword Bike and Board

Fourword Bike and Board, for years one of Grande Prairie's two main bike shops at 10905 100 Street, has closed as a bicycle retailer and rebranded to Supertee Brand Builder, a promotional-apparel business at the same address. Top Gear Cycles is a motorcycle and powersports dealer, not an e-bike shop. Both are excluded here.

Fourword has closed as a bike shop For years, Fourword Bike and Board at 10905 100 Street was one of Grande Prairie's two main bike shops, carrying brands such as Giant, Devinci, Rocky Mountain, Kona and Santa Cruz. As of 2026 it has closed as a bicycle retailer and rebranded to Supertee Brand Builder, a promotional-apparel and branding business operating from the same address, with remaining bike inventory liquidated. Its former web domain no longer serves bike-shop content. Because it no longer sells or services bikes, it is excluded from this directory. We will re-check at the next refresh in case a new e-bike retailer opens in town. If you remember Fourword as your local shop, Ernie's Sports Experts is now the storefront to use.

Not an eBike shop: Top Gear Cycles Top Gear Cycles (13010 99 Street) appears in general "cycle" searches but is a motorcycle and powersports dealer — Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, Harley-Davidson — with rider training and motorcycle service, not electric bicycles. It is excluded here so you don't make a wasted trip. Likewise, the bike shops you'll see for "Revolution Cycle" and "Circuit Cycle" in search results are in the Edmonton area and Millet respectively, not Grande Prairie.

Closures Takeaway The Grande Prairie e-bike map has narrowed: Fourword is gone (now a branding shop), and Top Gear is motorcycles, not e-bikes. That leaves Ernie's Sports Experts as the one verified in-person e-bike source — which is exactly why this page lists one shop and refuses to invent more.

Pathway & Trail Rules — Parkland Bylaw C-1310

Yes, you can ride an e-bike on Grande Prairie's parklands, pathways and trails. Under Parkland Bylaw C-1310 (amended December 2023 to cover e-bikes and e-scooters), electric bicycles are an allowed wheeled conveyance — provided you ride at a reasonable speed, keep right, signal when passing and carry no passengers.

E-bikes are allowed on City parklands, pathways and trails In December 2023, Grande Prairie amended its Parkland Bylaw C-1310 specifically to cover e-bikes and e-scooters on the pathway network. Electric bicycles are an allowed wheeled conveyance on parklands, pathways and trails, alongside manual bicycles, non-Vespa-style scooters, Segways, electric unicycles, hoverboards, skateboards, inline skates and mobility devices. Riders must:

Travel at a reasonable speed (the City does not set a specific pathway speed number)
Keep to the right
Let others know when passing
Carry no passengers

Source: City of Grande Prairie, Parkland Bylaw C-1310 (adopted 2020, amended for e-bikes/e-scooters December 2023) and the City's "use parks, paths and trails safely" page.

What's prohibited on the pathways The same bylaw bans certain road-style and motorized vehicles from parklands and pathways: Vespa-style scooters, GenZe scooters, Juiced Scramblers, CSC City Slickers, golf carts, golfboards, and any gas- or diesel-powered vehicles (ATVs, dirt bikes, snowmobiles, cars and trucks) — unless a permit was previously approved. A compliant pedal-assist e-bike is fine; a heavy throttle-only "scrambler" that looks like a moped may not be. If your machine exceeds the 500W power bicycle limit, treat it as a motor vehicle, not a pathway-legal e-bike. Source: City of Grande Prairie parks-safety page; Parkland Bylaw C-1310.

Sidewalks — confirm before you ride Grande Prairie's clearly published e-bike rules cover parklands, pathways and trails under Parkland Bylaw C-1310. Sidewalk-specific cycling rules fall under the City's separate Traffic Bylaw C-1166, whose full text we could not extract during this audit — so we do not assert a sidewalk rule we cannot verify. Treat sidewalks as pedestrian-priority space and confirm with the City at 311 before riding on them. Alberta's provincial framework also discourages operating motorized cycles on sidewalks. (Flagged as unverified: any specific Grande Prairie sidewalk-cycling allowance or ban.)

Pathway Rules Takeaway The City's parkland pathways and trails are your dependable e-bike network — ride at a reasonable speed, keep right, signal your passes and carry no passengers. Keep moped-style and gas vehicles off them, and treat sidewalks as a "confirm-with-311" question rather than an assumption.

Alberta eBike Laws — What Makes an eBike Legal in Grande Prairie

Alberta regulates e-bikes under the federal Power-Assisted Bicycle framework: a motor no greater than 500W, motor assist cutting off at 32 km/h, and fully operable pedals. The minimum age is 12, a helmet is required for every e-bike rider regardless of age, and no licence, registration or insurance is needed for a compliant power bicycle.

Alberta — federal Power-Assisted Bicycle (PAB) framework

Motor: Maximum 500W
Speed cut-off: Motor assist stops at 32 km/h
Pedals: Fully operable pedals required
Minimum age: 12 years old (Alberta Regulation 304/2002, s.76)
Helmet: Approved bicycle or motorcycle helmet required for EVERY e-bike rider, all ages (2018 Registrar's Exemption under AR 122/2009)
Licence / registration / insurance: Not required for a compliant power bicycle
Over the limit: Exceed 500W or 32 km/h and Alberta may treat the vehicle as a moped — which then needs a licence, plate and insurance

Note the helmet detail that catches adults: Alberta's general pedal-bicycle law only requires helmets for riders under 18, but the power-bicycle exemption requires a helmet for every e-bike rider regardless of age. So a 40-year-old on a pedal bike may legally go bare-headed in Alberta, while the same rider on an e-bike must wear a helmet. E-bikes are allowed on roads and in bike lanes where conventional bicycles are permitted, subject to local bylaws like C-1310 on the pathways.

Where to Ride Your eBike in Grande Prairie

In Grande Prairie you can ride a compliant e-bike on City parkland pathways and trails under Parkland Bylaw C-1310, and on City streets and bike lanes where conventional bicycles are allowed. Sidewalks and provincial-park trails are confirm-first; moped-style and gas-powered machines are banned from the pathway network.

City parkland pathways and trails — open to e-bikes under Parkland Bylaw C-1310; ride at a reasonable speed, keep right, signal when passing, no passengers.
City streets and bike lanes — permitted where conventional bicycles are allowed; ride with traffic, signal turns, obey signs.
Sidewalks — not covered by the published Parkland Bylaw; the Traffic Bylaw C-1166 governs them and we could not verify its sidewalk-cycling text, so confirm with 311 and treat sidewalks as pedestrian-priority.
Moped-style / gas vehicles — Vespa-style scooters, scramblers, golf carts and any gas- or diesel-powered vehicle are banned from parklands and pathways without a permit. A compliant 500W pedal-assist e-bike is fine.
Provincial parks & conservation areas near GP — rules vary by site and can differ from the City's; always check posted signage and the managing authority before riding e-bikes on non-municipal trails.

Riding in Grande Prairie — Takeaway The City's parkland pathways and on-street bike lanes are your reliable e-bike network, governed by Parkland Bylaw C-1310 and Alberta's 500W PAB rules. Wear a helmet (required for every e-bike rider in Alberta), keep moped-style machines off the paths, and treat sidewalks and provincial-park trails as confirm-first.

Can I ride an eBike on the sidewalk in Grande Prairie?

Grande Prairie's clearly published rules cover parklands, pathways and trails under Parkland Bylaw C-1310, where e-bikes are allowed with the keep-right, reasonable-speed, no-passenger and signal-when-passing conditions. Sidewalk-specific cycling rules fall under the City's separate Traffic Bylaw C-1166, whose full text we could not extract during this audit, so we do not assert a sidewalk rule we cannot verify.

Do I need a helmet to ride an eBike in Grande Prairie?

Yes. For power bicycles (e-bikes), Alberta requires an approved bicycle or motorcycle helmet for every rider regardless of age, under the 2018 Registrar's Exemption (AR 122/2009). This is stricter than Alberta's general pedal-bicycle helmet law, which only mandates helmets for riders under 18. So whether you are 16 or 60, wear a helmet on an e-bike in Grande Prairie.
