Why More and More People are Choosing to Ride E-Bikes

Electric bikes or E-bikes are becoming more and more popular these days. In fact, you've probably seen one on the road. They're just like regular road bikes, except they have a small electric-powered motor that helps provide pushing power to the rider for a smoother and more efficient ride. They're a great alternative to your usual means of transportation and allow you to move around more easily than you would in a car.

How Do E-bikes Work and Why Should You Get One?

Electric bikes come with a small electric-powered motor strong enough to push you forward but does not give a fast enough ride for the bike to be considered a motorcycle. They generally come in two main categories: throttle and pedal-assist.

Throttle e-bikes give you the option of riding without the need for pedaling. While pedal-assisted e-bikes work as the name suggests, the motor only activates to help you while you're pedaling.

If you’re interested in a better, more convenient way to get around, below are a few reasons that might convince you to get your very own e-bike.

1. E-Bikes Let You Ride Farther

E-bike rides last longer than usual because of the motor's help. While there are still rules around the distance you can travel on an e-bike without pedaling, you can get up to an extra 20km's distance before you're required to pedal. That's a great way to get around and stay fit.

2. E-Bikes are Super Convenient

Whether you have a full-time job or side hustles, you'll find that an e-bike can be a great way to commute. With an e-bike, you don't need to manage public transport and wait for a bus or train. You can also avoid the long queues of people at the bus stations. You can ride an e-bike to the station and ride off with a bike as you get there.

3. E-Bikes are Environmentally Friendly

Using E-bikes is an environmentally-friendly way to travel around the city. They produce minimal exhaust both in terms of noise and pollution so you can feel good about helping contribute to a cleaner environment.

4. E-Bikes Support All Skill Levels

E-bikes are designed to be easy to use and simple to ride. Having the help of a motor dramatically lessens the skill gap between riders. This means groups of friends and families can ride together without worrying too much about the distance or difficulty of the route.

5. E-Bikes are Easy to Maintain

E-bikes have fewer parts that wear out and need maintenance compared to a car. For example, e-bikes only have one battery to maintain as opposed to a car's numerous parts. There's no insurance to pay for or a need to fuel up. Just charge up your e-bike and go!

Join the E-Bike Revolution

An e-bike is a great way to make your commute more convenient. They're a lot of fun and don't require a lot of effort or skill to use, helping you get to your destination faster without worrying about the long route or rough terrain. Make use of e-bikes for a great way to stay fit, enjoy the beautiful outdoors, and help the environment all at the same time.
