How Do Electric Assisted Bikes Work: Understanding the Functionality of E-Bikes
Electric assisted bikes, also known as e-bikes, are bicycles with an electric motor that provides assistance to the rider when pedaling. The motor is usually activated through a sensor that detects the force applied on the pedals. The motor then kicks in, providing an extra boost to the rider’s pedaling power. The rider can adjust the level of assistance provided by the motor using a controller on the handlebar. The motor is powered by a battery, which is rechargeable through a standard electrical outlet.
