WHAT IS AN E-BIKE AND WHAT IT CONSISTS OF
Any bike equipped with an electric motor,
electronic central unit and battery is considered
an e-bike. The drive unit fills the role of something
of a helper that helps the rider with pedalling and
cares for his comfort. At the same time the motor's
help will activate only if the rider is pedalling and
actively turning the cranks. The crank movement
is read by a special sensor place in the bottom
bracket. Maximum speed of an e-bike with motor
assistance is ca. 25 km/h. After reaching this
speed the motor automatically turns itself off and
you continue as with any normal bike. If the battery
runs out or if the electric motor is turned off, you
can still continue to your goal using your own
strength without any further resistance.

Electric motor can be set in motion also via control
button or accelerator, but only up to maximum
allowed speed of 6 km/h. This function is usually
called walking assistant and it is useful for any
manipulation with e-bike. Reaching higher speeds
is impossible without active help from the rider.
Every e-bike that conforms to European norm
EN 15194-1 is, from the point of the Road Traffic
Law, considered a normal bike. You don't a driver's
license for an e-bike like this, you can freely ride on
cycling trails and cycling helmet is mandatory only
up till 18 years of age. We still strongly recommend
the use of cycling helmets to all e-bike users
without distinction.
