Believe it or not, electric bikes first appeared in the late 1890s.
Mind blown.
Yes, that's right. These bikes have existed for quite some time, but it is only in the last few years their popularity exploded.
Why?
Well, who wouldn't want a little help from free speed to take the burn out of riding? An electric bicycle helps you go further, faster and for longer. Winning.
Electric bicycles will make pedalling easier. When pushing the pedals the motor engages and will give you a boost so, you can zip up hills more comfortable and also cruise for longer without exhausting yourself.
What’s better?
Our bikes have a throttle so, when you get tired you don’t have to pedal at all.
Imagine this.
Your legs need a break, but you don't want to stop. Guess what? You don't have to.
You have an electric assist there for when you're legs get tired. Which means you can sit back see and explore more because electric bikes will do the riding for you. Oh, and they're also brilliant touring bikes. You can ride more extended distances without fatigue, making the ride more comfortable and manageable too. Which means, you can discover the world because you're riding for longer.
These reasons above are why Australians found their love and desire for electric bikes.
