What is an electric bike ebike?
An electric bike, or eBike, is a type of bicycle that is fitted with a motor and battery, which provides the rider with extra power to assist with pedaling or can be used to propel the bike without pedaling (throttle-based). Ebikes come in a variety of designs, encompassing motor power, battery capacity, pedal assist levels, frame materials, wheel size, suspension, brakes, drivetrain, and more, which can affect performance, handling as well as the cost. Different types of ebikes are available on the market, such as mountain bikes, beach cruisers, cargo bikes, and city commuters that cater to different user needs.
