The end of the metropolitan nightmare.
The national cycle trades council estimates that 17,000 electric bikes were sold in 2008, at an average price of 1,000 euros. A straw compared to the 242,000 city bikes and the 3.5 million of all categories bought in 2007. The experts recommend the electric bike to older people who miss their former Poulidor pace.
Power-e-bike is proud to offer high-performance kits to fit on your bike from €269.
More than enough to soar over metropolitan journeys.
The idea is to relieve the effort according to the slope from the very first pedal stroke. And suddenly, the thigh push, chemically sound and slightly over-revved, seems miraculously super-powerful. The goal is truly to beat the polka-dot jersey with a top speed of 20km/h uphill.
No need to get your calculators out: the electric bike wins every time — 1 euro of electricity for an estimated 1,000 km.
Some drawbacks remain: you will probably look like a UFO, you will not be safe from a cold either, and finally, carried away by your climbing ease, you will probably forget to recharge the battery; you will then have to show humility and put your little calves to work.
