The first thing that customers ask us most often is whether a motorcycle and an electric bike are the same, and whether they work without pedaling, just by adding gas on the handlebars. Many cyclists consider this kind of riding a kind of cheating, because you are not reaching the top under your own power. But electric bicycles do not offer you an effortless ride. On the contrary. You won't even move without effort.
The assistance of the electric motor is not about getting on the seat and driving without pedaling. But you will feel its support after a few turns of the pedals. Its power activates and multiplies your power . So you drive faster, but only depending on how you exert yourself.
How to use electric bicycles effectively?
Before buying an electric bike, consider how the electric bike should serve you. You can use it:
• for longer trips through nature,
• for discovering cycling paths,
• for shopping,
• commuting to the city,
• traveling to work or to business meetings.
Electric bicycles are also used by classic riders. The sport as such is a bit simpler, but it is by no means free riding without pedaling. Maybe you have cycling friends who can't keep up with training or simply don't have time to get in shape. An electric bike is a great solution for him to keep up with you and enjoy trips with old (or young) friends again.
Commuting to work on a classic bike is not for everyone. Especially if you come into contact with clients whom you cannot welcome in a sweaty T-shirt. An electric bicycle will carry you:
• quickly,
• without too much effort,
• without waiting in the morning smell,
• away from crowded buses and trams.
E-bikes don't help you cheat on your fitness. They are not a substitute for a motorcycle, but they will help you get from point A to point B efficiently, ecologically and on time.
