We visited Ithaca for 1,5 days and rented bikes here. This was our first time on electric bikes and it was AMAZING!! If you haven`t tried it yet, Ithaca is a perfect place to do this. Seriously. It feels amazing to drive one! The shop owner (Lawrence was his name, i believe) was very nice and helpful, suggested the places to visit and how the bike works.
We had the bikes from about 10am till 4pm and paid 30$ for each bike (we rent two). Before renting them the price seemed quite high, but once we started driving never regretted it! Pop the owner an email if you want to rent them outside the working hours, as we did.

Ithaca and the Finger Lakes region are beautiful, but exploring them by bike can be a challenge unless you're a strong biker, because of all the steep hills. Boxy Bikes solves this problem by renting and selling bikes with a little extra battery powered oomph. I rode one of their bikes up the big hill at the Cornell Plantations and felt like I had super powers, I could gently pedal all the way to the top, astounding passers by. Electric bikes are also great for leveling the playing field when you have a group of riders of different abilities who want to take a trip, you can use a boost when you need it or not when you don't. Boxy rents and sells the bikes, so if you fall in love with one when you take it out for a spin you can make it your own and I think the rental price will be applied to the purchase.
