The benefits of an eBike:
- Commutes are quicker versus a standard pedal bike
- Reduces ecological impact by driving less
- Decreased perspiration compared to pedal bikes (ie: You won’t arrive a sweaty mess!)
- Physiological benefits through elevated heart rates
And…did we mention super fun?
Depending on how riders adjust their bikes, the benefits of exercise can be witnessed. A technological compromise between a standard bike and a scooter, eBikes look very similar to a self-powered bike but come fitted with an electric motor to help assist pedaling, adding extra power to every stroke. Most eBikes will assist in pedaling for you until you reach a speed of 20 MPH, or until you stop pedaling. Essentially, the goal of an eBike is to make pedaling less taxing, helping you to get to your destination more quickly while reducing the amount of sweat and physical exertion that comes with a traditional self-powered bike. Additionally, eBikes can help assist riders with trickier parts of their commute, such as riding uphill, providing another advantage. (And they are super fun.)![](https://synapticcycles.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Sofia-Loren-2.png)
