Allett Unveils the ‘Turf Rider’: The Revolutionary Mower-Powered E-Bike for Grounds People

April 1, 2025

In a groundbreaking move, Allett Mowers has announced the release of its new revolutionary product, the Turf Rider, an innovative mower-powered e-bike designed specifically for groundsmen and turf care professionals. With the growing demand for efficiency and speed in maintaining sports pitches, golf courses and other turf areas, this next-level machine is set to redefine the way grounds people move around their workspaces.

The Turf Rider: Mowing Meets Mobility

At first glance, the Turf Rider may appear to be an ordinary e-bike, but a closer look reveals the cutting-edge integration of a powerful electric engine which provides the speed you need to get around large outdoor spaces. Whether you're checking turf quality, conducting routine maintenance or simply needing to move from one end of the field to the other, the Turf Rider ensures you do so with speed and precision.

Key Features:

Mower-Powered E-Bike
The Turf Rider combines the power of an Allett mower engine with a high-performance e-bike. This hybrid setup ensures that no matter how large the area, you’ll be able to navigate the turf with ease. Ride time up to 8 hours.
Eco-Friendly and Efficient
Designed with sustainability in mind, the Turf Rider is entirely electric, offering zero emissions while still delivering all the power you need to move quickly around the grounds. Groundsmen can now do their part for the environment without compromising on performance.
Enhanced Manoeuvrability
With its robust design and top-tier suspension system, the Turf Rider makes quick turns and tight manoeuvring easy, even on uneven surfaces. The bike's special turf tires allow it to glide smoothly over freshly mown grass without causing damage to the turf, making it perfect for delicate sports fields and golf greens.
Comfort and Customisation
Every groundsman knows that comfort is key when spending hours on the field. The Turf Rider features an adjustable saddle and handlebars allowing for a tailored riding experience. Plus, its weather-resistant design ensures it can withstand the harsh conditions often found on sports pitches whether it's rain, mud, or intense sun.
Built-in Smart Technology
The Turf Rider is equipped with smart technology that allows groundsmen to monitor battery life, track performance and even track where you left it with GPS. Through the intuitive mobile app, users can receive real-time updates and ensure their bike is always running at peak efficiency.

"I’ve tested a lot of turf equipment in my time, but nothing quite like the Turf Rider. The speed, the handling, the sheer thrill of gliding across the pitch—it’s a total game-changer. I was skeptical at first, but after a few laps, I knew this was the future. Let’s just say, once you ride it, you’ll never walk the same way again!" (Joe, Kerr, Allett Product Tester)

The introduction of the Turf Rider represents a major step forward in turf care. It’s not just about mowing anymore—it’s about redefining how groundsmen work and ensuring they have the best tools to enhance productivity and reduce their time spent on engine powered vehicles.

While traditional methods of groundskeeping involve walking across vast fields or relying on fuel guzzling vehicles, the Turf Rider provides a faster, more sustainable, enjoyable experience. It’s also designed to reduce the physical strain on groundsmen, allowing them to move around efficiently while still getting their work done prolonging their career lifespan.

"At Allett, we’re always looking for ways to innovate and support the professionals who care for the world’s best pitches and greens. The Turf Rider is a game-changer—combining efficiency, sustainability, and a bit of fun. We know groundsmen cover serious miles every day, so why not make the journey smoother, faster, and smarter? This is just the beginning of a new era in turf management." (Austin Jarrett, Managing Director, Allett)
