About e-bikes
What is an e-bike?
Electric bicycles, also known as “e-bikes,” use rechargeable batteries that can travel around 15-28 miles per hour.
Why buy an e-bike?
An electric bike can be used for more than just adventures. You can use it to carry groceries or your kids – without breaking a sweat. It is more fun, healthier, and less expensive than driving!
E-Bike basics
Electric bikes are divided into three classes that denote their level of motor assistance. Figuring out which class of e-bike you need is important:
Class 1
The motor kicks in only when you pedal, and stops helping at 20 mph
Class 2
Also has a pedal-assist mode up to 20 mph plus a purely throttle-powered mode
Class 3
Is solely pedal-assist (like class 1), but assistance continues until you hit 28 mp
