Preventative Maintenance
Your LeaseBike subscription includes routine preventative maintenance, at no additional cost, which the user is required to accommodate, either at Bleeper’s workshop or via our mobile mechanic service.
Bike Damage & Deposit
- Security Deposit: On the day you collect your bike you will be required to pay a refundable deposit of €150. This deposit will be refunded in full when the bike and its accessories are returned in good condition.
- Bike Damage: The user may be held liable for the cost of any damage caused to the bike or battery through misuse or carelessness. (Routine wear & tear such as punctures are covered through our Repair & Replacement service.)
GPS Tracking of LeaseBikes
All LeaseBikes are fitted with GPS trackers as a security measure. This enables us to recover LeaseBikes if they are lost or stolen.Various GPS tracking devices are used and some bikes have multiple trackers installed. If you notice a GPS device on your LeaseBike (e.g. Your phone notifies you about a nearby tracking device) please do not tamper with it.
Theft, Loss & Liability
- Theft Prevention: The user will be supplied with locks which must be used to secure the bike. Overnight storage in a public place (e.g. on the street) is not permitted.
- Battery Security: Our e-bikes come with removable batteries which can be removed using a key. Users are encouraged to remove the battery from the e-bike whenever the bike is locked in a public place.
- Liability: In the event of the loss or theft of the bike and/or the battery, the user is obliged to report this to Bleeper within 24 hours. Depending on the circumstances of loss (e.g. if the bike was locked or not), Bleeper will be entitled to charge the user a deductible up to the following maximum amounts:

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The joining fee is a one off payment to cover the cost of preparing your bike and setting up your subscription.

Q4: What about wear & tear?
Scratches and the odd bent spoke are an acceptable level of wear and tear and you will not be charged. If it is an unacceptable level of damage we will assess it and give you a quote to repair or replace the damaged parts.
Q5: How do I charge the my electric bike?
There is an input on the right side of the battery where you can connect the charger. You can charge the battery when it is placed in the e-bike or you can slide it out of the frame and charge it inside your house.
Q6: Is it possible to install a child seat on my eBike?
LeaseBike customers are not permitted to make any alterations to their bike, including installing a child seat or any other attachments.
Q7: How many kilometers can I ride with a fully charged battery?
The range of your e-bike depends on several variable factors such as the total weight being carried (including the rider), the power setting being used (Eco Mode vs Turbo Mode), the terrain (especially hills) and weather factors such as temperature and wind. Because of all these variables, it isn’t possible to give an exact range for an ebike in terms of kilometres, but we can provide estimates for the low and high ends of the range of each bike. Please contact our Customer Care team if you have queries about a specific ebike model.
Q8: I have completed my order, what's next?
You lease start date will commence when you have collected your bike. We will contact you to let you know when your bike is ready for collection. Bike pickups take place from our workshop in Merchants Quay D08 K3KD.
Q9:How do I end my subscription?
Just book an appointment with one of our technicians, when your bike is returned we will end your weekly payments and refund your security deposit. Book an Appointment
