12 Reasons to Buy
Terrain
Active
Electric bikes will help a rider travel comfortably over a variety of terrains, to travel faster and cover greater distances. All this without the fatigue or physical strain that is associated with the use of a regular bike.
Electric bikes will get you out and about, riding more frequently. According to the Transport Research Laboratory UK, owners of electric bikes are more than twice as likely to utilise their electric bike as regular non-electric bikes.
Cost Efficient
Beat the Rush
Electric bikes are the most fuel-efficient mode of transport for every day travel. Battery recharging costs are a matter of cents, whilst the same cannot be said for motor vehicles. No costly insurance, road tax or regular maintenance overheads. How efficient is that?
