An eBike integrates a battery-powered motor with traditional bicycle components to enhance your riding experience. It assists your pedaling effort, allowing you to ride easier and faster. Motors are mainly found in two places: the hub of a wheel (hub-drive) or near the pedals (mid-drive). Mid-drive motors are more common and provide a seamless biking experience similar to that of a regular bike when not in use.
eBikes feature different levels of pedal assistance that help the rider according to the force they apply:
eBikes can help conquer challenging terrain, extend your riding range, keep pace with more experienced cyclists, or replace car trips for more eco-friendly commuting.
eBikes often require the same maintenance as traditional bikes, such as changing brake pads, tires, and chains. However, mid-drive systems may increase the frequency of chain replacements.
It’s important that you have a license eBike mechanic perform work on your eBike. Never modify your eBike without consulting with a licensed eBike mechanic who is familiar with local regulations.
