Trend of growing popularity of e-bikes shows where cycling is likely to progress in the near future. The target group of fans of electric bikes is already quite wide and is constantly growing. Thanks to the electric bicycle, you can travel longer distances in less time and will help you with performance even in situations where your own strength will no longer be enough. On a bike trip, you will no longer have the annoying feeling that you are falling behind the group that needs to wait for you, but this time you will finally enjoy the ride. The vast majority of people who opt for an ebike also have a traditional bicycle at home, and they change their bikes according to the situation.
My first e-bike
Buying an e-bike can get very costly. If you're on budget but you want the highest quality of materials and parts possible, bicycle producer 4EVER offers you a handful of great options.
Long-time Czech manufacturer counts only on verified engines and parts made by renowned brands. Their bikes are built manually on stands exclusively, which ensures constant quality check during the assembly.
However, the perfect ratio between quality and price is the most outstanding thing about 4EVER. Despite the more demanding building process, its e-bikes come at reasonable price, which makes them the preferable choice for your first e-bike. 4EVER offers mostly trekking / urban and e-MTB bicycles.
Ebikes clock the speed around 25 kmh and a driver's license is not required for riding. If you have already looked for a specific type, focus mainly on engine power and range. The maximum power of the motor is limited to 250 W and the weight of the electric bicycle should not exceed 40 kgs. The design solution of individual models is different. You will find classic bicycle constructions supplemented with an electric set, but also with bicycles with a special frame adapted to hold an electric motor. It is not possible to turn an ordinary bicycle into an electric bicycle, as attaching the electric motor to the frame could damage it.
The standard solution for affordable models is the engine integrated in the rear hub. The control unit coordinates all parts of the propulsion and the control panel is located on the handlebars.
An important part of the propulsion is the battery. Today, e-bikes are mostly equipped with following types of batteries:
- + life span of 500 charg cycles
- + can be refurbished
- + life span of up to 1 000 charg cycles
- + higher capacity
- + light weight
- - it wears out quickly due to high temperature
- + perfect performance/price ratio
- - requires custom charger
- + affordable price
- + great thermal stability
- - life span drops with fast charging
At first glance, it is clear that you will use this machine in the rough forrest terrain or on a steep downhill. You will fully enjoy wide tires with a rugged tread and soft suspension when riding aggressively. The engine only engages while pedaling and the power intensity can be adjusted. The resulting power and effort invested in pedaling are therefore closely related and thanks to the support of the electric engine, you will have more time for the downhill itself. Riding an e-bike does not have such a stressful effect on the joints and helps to make better use of the upper body.
The e-MTB promises more fun and time for a real adventure in overcoming challenging obstacles in the terrain. Even the steepest hill can be easily climbed at a speed of about 24 kmh.
This bike might fool you. On the outside, it looks like a hybrid between a road bike and a cross bike. It has a typical high seating, slick tires, sports handlebars and a sporty frame geometry. At first glance, few people notice that this is a full-fledged electric bike. The engine and battery are discreetly hidden in the frame. The popularity of the new category of bicycle, additionally enriched with all the advantages of engine propulsion, has skyrocketed. It is highly regarded for its versatility.
It is a fast bike suitable not only for asphalt roads, but also for various forest or dirt trails, unpaved gravel roads or hilly terrain. Simply, the ideal companion for bike trips. Braking is taken care of exclusively by disc brakes and, unlike road bikes, gravel bikes promise more comfort also thanks to wider tires and specially modified frame geometry.
Leisure cycling or regular commuting to work or points of interest within the city will suddenly take on a whole new dimension. With an eBike you will discover places and spots that always seemed inaccessible due to lack of time or too great distance. High-quality lighting is a matter of course, so you will not be surprised by the approaching evening while wandering around the countryside or the city, and you will always return home safely and comfortably.
The entire construction of the bike is adapted to achieve the maximum possible comfort, whether it is the geometry of the frame, saddle, fenders, baggage racks or the use of disc brakes. City bikes can appeal also with their casual elegance and decent vintage elements.
