What is a hybrid electric bike?
A hybrid electric bike, also known as a pedal-assist electric bike or a power-assisted bicycle, is a type of electric bike that combines traditional pedaling with electric power. Hybrid electric bikes typically have a battery and motor that provide assistance when the rider pedals, but can also be powered solely by the electric motor. This type of electric bike is particularly useful for those who want the option of an added boost, such as when tackling hills or riding into headwinds, while still being able to pedal normally for exercise or enjoyment. Hybrid electric bikes come in a variety of styles and designs, suitable for various riding environments and preferences.
