5 Things to Know About Electric Bikes

Electric bikes look a lot like the non-electric bikes you’re familiar with, but they're equipped with a battery and a small electric motor to assist you in pedaling faster and farther. E-bikes are offered in a variety of styles, including cargo bikes, commuting bikes, mountain bikes, folding bikes and more.

The motors on an electric bike senses when you’re pedaling and gives you a boost to propel the bike forward, making pedaling easier. Many e-bikes have several levels (or modes) of assistance that allow you to adjust the amount of boost you get. Some electric bikes provide a boost only when you pedal, others have a throttle button that will assist you even when you don’t.

E-bikes are categorized into three main classes, which often determine where you can ride them. Most bike manufacturers and state, local and other entities have adopted this system, which defines e-bikes as a low-speed bicycle with fully operational pedals and an electric motor of less than 750 watts (about 1 horsepower).

I live in a hilly area, my ebike does all the hard job. If I don't realise that is happening, my fitness can get really low or it be that my brain get used to a very different riding style?. After two weeks, once I get back on a regular bike looks like I don't want to go any faster, anyrhing at all. I even feel bad about getting hurry.
Maybe keeping quiet and easy going style would be the best way to get fit back...allowing the brain to reload the old program.

How can a battery die when you can recharge it by pedaling which works as an alternator ? Why can’t it recharge when you pedal on it ?
