Electric bikes have all the advantages of traditional bikes, plus extra speed and less exertion. Here are the best ebikes for every kind of ride and rider: via forbesvetted
The Propella SS is a single-minded ebike: It strives to be the lightest electric bike you can own. Sure, there are lighter ebikes out there, but you can buy a cheap car for about the same amount of money. The Propella, though? Just a tick over a grand gets you an ebike that weighs just 35 pounds—about half the weight of many of the other bikes on this list.
Then, referencing your height and inseam length, you can use a bike size chart to help you find the best frame size fit for you. The inseam length is particularly helpful when you’re buying a standard frame bikes compared to step-through bikes that have more between-the-leg clearance. Most retailers will have a bike size chart on their website for reference.
If your ebike has a throttle, you can stop pedaling entirely and just depress the throttle to let the bike to all the work. You won’t get any exercise this way, and it’ll run the bike’s battery down relatively quickly. If you have a Class 1 ebike, the electric motor has a top speed of 20mph, but only works when you’re actually pedaling—it’s not allowed to include a throttle to move the bike without pedaling.
