Why Buy an Electric Bike?

Are You Needing Assistance Climbing Hills or Looking to Reduce Spending on Transportation Costs? An electric bike may be just what’s necessary. Not only is it environmentally-friendly and requires much less maintenance than cars or motorbikes, it can be great help in climbing hills.

Pedal Assist

Pedal assist system, or PAS, refers to an electric motor’s ability to augment pedal power and allow you to ride for much longer distances and on more challenging terrain without becoming fatigued, or arriving at work sweaty and unprepared to attend those important business meetings! With PAS you can ride even on longer distances on tougher terrain without becoming exhausted – perfect for longer commutes!

PAS systems differ from throttle-only bikes by using torque sensors to monitor pedaling activity and engage legs when necessary. They usually come equipped with zero to five PAS levels that riders can select depending on their specific needs and battery life goals.

Lower PAS settings are great for conserving energy and protecting the battery, while higher settings offer extra push against hills or wind resistance. No matter your cycling needs or circumstances, PAS can help you effortlessly keep pace with traffic or conquer tough hills that would make cycling difficult without assistance.

Distance and Terrain Capability

Your ride time on an electric bicycle depends on a number of factors including battery, terrain and riding style. A high watt-hour (Wh) rating indicates its range capabilities with longer riding sessions possible at higher Wh ratings.

Too much throttle use will drain your ebike’s battery more rapidly than using pedal-assist mode, which was designed to gently propel you along at an even pace while still offering exercise opportunities and breathtaking scenery.

Other factors affecting a bike’s range are rider weight, tire pressure, maintenance needs and headwinds. Some ebikes allow users to plug in an extra battery for even greater power on your next adventure, extending its reach even further. Regenerative braking technology used by some models may also use energy from your motor to slow your bike before engaging the brake pads is also an option on many ebikes.

Saving on Expenses

Many people opt for e-bikes to save money on gasoline; considering today’s gas costs, that could amount to saving thousands over your lifetime. Furthermore, their operating costs are lower than cars; including insurance costs, registration fees and parking. And by charging during off-peak hours you could even lower electricity costs!

Assuming you use an e-bike as your primary mode of transportation to work, riding instead could reduce commute costs by about half. And that doesn’t even take into account other savings such as reduced maintenance expenses or time searching for parking! Plus, lithium-ion batteries on electric bikes typically last much longer, meaning less replacement expenses and therefore reduced carbon emissions over time – not to mention reduced maintenance expenses! Of course a spare battery might add another expense (but still far cheaper than replacing your car!).

Convenience

An electric bike’s motor is powered by a rechargeable battery that can be charged using any standard wall outlet – meaning long rides without fear of running out of juice!

E-bikes offer an effective solution for people looking for exercise without exerting too much physical effort. Furthermore, these bikes allow users to run errands and transport light cargo without the use of a car, thus cutting gas costs significantly.

People suffering from knee or leg problems may find an e-bike to be an ideal solution. Pedal-assist bikes only engage their motor when you pedal, making them safe and simple to use with leg or knee issues. Throttle-only e-bikes operate like regular bicycles but feature an additional throttle on their handlebar for when you don’t feel like pedaling. We provide three types of controllers to make finding your ideal mode easy: RideControl Go, One and Dash are available.
