E-bikes FAQ
What is the difference between an e-bike and a traditional bicycle?
An electric bike, or e-bike, supports muscle strength and makes it easier to climb hills and travel over longer distances. An electric bike can be a fast and cheap means of transport in the city (electric city bikes, e.g. the Ecobike City series). There are also electric mountain bikes (MTB), trekking, which give a lot of pleasure to ride on any terrain. Ecobike electric bicycles are suitable for everyone. Skills or age don't matter.
How fast can I ride an electric bike?
Electric bicycles reach different speeds, depending on the power and type of motor, as well as the battery. In accordance with applicable regulations, electric bicycles can travel on public roads at speeds up to 25 km/h. After exceeding this speed, the electric support is turned off and we are dependent on the strength of our muscles.
Is an electric bike heavier than a regular bike? How much does an e-bike weigh?
An average electric bike weighs about 24 kg. Additional kilograms include engine, battery and drive system. The higher weight of the bike is not felt in any way while riding.
How long does it take to charge the electric bicycle battery? Where can i do that?
The electric bicycle battery is charged anywhere that has access to a regular outlet. We can charge it at home, at work, anywhere. It is important to follow the manufacturer's rules set out in the instructions, including use the original charger and do not allow long-term discharge
How often do you need to charge the battery?
The frequency of charging depends on the driving style. Some will charge the battery every day, others every week. If we use the electric bicycle regularly, we charge the battery when it is discharged. Remember to use the original charger and not to drain the battery during extended periods of non-use (e.g. in winter), but to maintain a charge level of approx. 60-80%. Thanks to this, we will significantly extend the battery life
How far can you ride on a single charge?
The range you can achieve on a single battery charge depends on many factors and can vary significantly. Key aspects affecting range include:
- Weather: ambient temperature, as well as wind strength and direction.
- Road conditions: terrain slope and surface quality.
- Technical condition of the bike: proper tire pressure and regular maintenance.
- Weight: total mass of the rider, bike, and any carried luggage.
- Riding style: acceleration and gear-shifting behavior.
- Battery condition: capacity and overall health.
- Use low gears at low speeds and when starting off
- Gradually shift to higher gears as speed increases
- For smooth assistance and range optimization, reduce pedal pressure while changing gears.
What is the battery life span? How long does the bike battery last?
The analysis shows that the average battery of an electric bicycle retains its original capacity after about 700-800 charging cycles (manufacturers usually indicate a value> 500 cycles). This means that with very intensive use of the electric bicycle all year round, when charging the battery every 2 days, the battery will remain functional for up to 3 years! Importantly, after this time, the battery will continue to work, but may gradually require more frequent cycles and reduced capacity
How to care for an electric bike? Can you fix it yourself?
An electric bicycle requires similar maintenance as a traditional bicycle. To avoid breakdowns and problems, you must regularly clean dirt, dust, mud. Ecobike electric bicycles have already traveled tens of thousands of kilometers without any fault. However, when a malfunction occurs, it is advisable to contact a professional service.
