Forest Expands to Ealing, Building London's Biggest Dockless E-Bike Network

London-based e-bike operator Forest is bringing its service to the Borough of Ealing, extending its reach to 20 boroughs across the capital. Starting 30th July, the company will gradually introduce 900 bikes to Ealing’s streets, a move that creates what Forest describes as London’s largest continuous dockless e-bike network.
To celebrate the launch, Forest is offering pay-as-you-go rides for £1 on any trip that begins in the borough. This promotional fare aims to encourage locals to try the service and integrate it into their daily commutes.
The expansion underscores the growing demand for flexible, eco-friendly transport options in outer London areas. By stitching together 20 boroughs, Forest hopes to provide a seamless alternative to short car journeys and crowded public transport.
