How Long Do E-bikes Last?
One of the best features is that they remain useful for a long time. They are very durable, and they are built to be safe. If they are maintained well, they can last for many years.
No matter how expensive and high-tech electric bikes are, they still rely on the main power source – a battery. The only way to ensure the battery will make it through long journeys is to have a trusty charger to help out.
Another question many people ask is “Can you still cycle without the battery”?
And yes, it is possible to ride without the battery when it has lost its charge without causing any damage to the motor. The battery is only there to help riders with the pedal assists or in other cases the throttle when it is needed.
The short answer is yes, they are safer than regular bicycles due to how they are designed.
They utilize an in-line electric motor powered by a battery, which takes the place of the traditional pedalling, and this makes them very safe to ride on the road, and ultimately gives you even more control.
A study from Portland University found that 60% of owners felt safer riding an electric bike and 42% of riders felt they had helped them avoid accidents.
Health Benefits Of E-bikes
They are great for exercise, as they will improve your leg muscles and your cardiovascular system. Even better, they are more environmentally friendly, too, as they emit less CO2 than cars, and don’t require the maintenance that cars require.
They are even easier to maintain than your regular bicycle while travelling since they have fewer moving parts.
The benefits are many, including the reduced pollution of fossil fuels, the resulting reduced carbon footprint, and the ability to enjoy travelling with less effort.
