An e-bike, or electric bicycle, is a bicycle equipped with an electric motor that assists with pedaling. This motor can help riders travel longer distances and tackle hills more easily than traditional bicycles. E-bikes come in various styles, including mountain bikes, commuter bikes, and folding bikes, making them versatile for different riding needs. E-bikes typically have a rechargeable battery that powers the motor, allowing for varying levels of assistance. Riders can choose how much help they want, making it easier to manage energy and effort. Many e-bikes also feature pedal-assist and throttle modes, enhancing the riding experience.
