What is an Electric Bike?

Показать описание
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 recently had the chance to ride an Addmotor electric bike, and I was blown away by its performance.

Terrible ! I just read of an American in Sydney getting brain damage by being hit by one of these. The speed bicycle's are going these days is very unsafe for pedestrians. Especially in Australia where they show little to no regard for Pedestrians.

No license or insurance required yet. Give it time, the government will figure how to charge you !

Dad made over 75, 000 km on a 20`` E-Bike that did cost 560€. Only things changed: tires and brakes + got an additional 11 Ah battery.


Sucks to be you wasting thousands on an E-Bike...and not even making 1, 000 km with it. 😉
