For many they are the answer to parking and traffic problems and they increase access and mobility for those you don’t want to use a car all the time or a conventional bike.

This means your bike is lighter, quickly rechargeable and more versatile as you decide how much of a boost you want.
Many people purchase these bikes because they are looking for a low-impact, fun fitness activity. Others appreciate the pedal assist provided by electric bikes as they commute or run errands and shop locally so they can maneuver faster and without all the effort of a conventional bike.
