Invented in the 1930s, the electric-assist bike or e-bike is a bicycle fitted with a rechargeable battery and an electric motor. With this type of bike, the rider must keep pedalling to move forward, without any great physical effort.
The electric bike is faster than a classic bike and its top speed can reach 25 km/h. It makes it possible to travel a fairly long distance (100 km or more depending on motor power), to climb hills more easily and to face a violent headwind.
Practical and easy to ride, the electric bike was originally used by elderly and reduced-mobility people. This bike is now aimed at any rider looking for electric assistance to reduce their physical effort and cover long distances.
The e-bike is not a bike for lazy people
No, the electric bike is not a bike for the lazy. It is an efficient, economical and environmentally friendly means of transport. Efficient, because it lets you travel more kilometres without changing the way an ordinary bike works, since the rider has to pedal to move forward. Economical, because its purchase, maintenance and energy consumption costs are low. Environmentally friendly, because it carries you outdoors without emitting any gas or other pollutants.
The electric bike is good for your health
The electric bike is also good for your health. It is true that it requires less physical effort than a classic bike, but it remains a gentle and beneficial activity, recommended for people with health limitations.
The e-bike is not a sport! It is a practical and economical means of transport. It also makes it possible to exercise in moderation, without violent effort.
