Why an Electric Bicycle?
Electric bicycles are a great alternative to driving a car
for short errands and pleasure riding. Their environmentally
friendly nature adds to their appeal. Electric bicycles
are quite popular these days because they allow an individual
to ride a bicycle with or without pedaling.
Electric bicycles are considered to be regular bikes for
legislative purposes. They do not have to be registered
as a motor vehicle and do not require you to buy insurance.
They are practical, both for personal transit and transporting
moderate loads. Factors such as improved batteries, decreasing
traffic congestion, monetary benefits (cheaper than owning
a car) and new bicycle infrastructure (bike lanes, bike
racks, etc.) are attracting users. To meet the demand, many
manufacturers offer e-bikes.
