Based on Motor Capacity Motor capacity or wattage is the single-most-important deciding factor. This would determine your user experience and your intensity of riding. Motors come in various wattages. 250W, 350W, 500W, 750W, or even 1000W and higher.  As you can guess, the weights of the bikes would also vary in direct proportion. In other words— the greater the motor wattage spec, the heavier the bike. This is where you will slowly start to appreciate brands that manage to strike a balance of both. More on this in a while.  The most appropriate way to choose the right e-Bike for you would...

When we were young, we would always look up to our parents for guidance, no matter the topic in mind. But, when it came to technology, most of us would look up to our father for advice. Of course, the technology we grew up with is completely different from the one we got accustomed to growing up.   To us, the latest technologies all made sense, so we couldn't understand how somebody does not know how to use a Smartphone or how a tablet works. As we grew older, many of us went out of the rebellious phase. That's when we began to realize that there is nothing wrong with not understanding t...

What are e-bike class differences?  It takes some time for laws to catch up to technology, so there was a brief period when e-bikes had no official classification. Nobody knew whether they were considered bicycles or motors; thus, choosing the appropriate lane to ride them in was also a puzzle.

With that said, manufacturers are never consistent with the class specifications of the bikes. Therefore, you need to learn more about the classes and your local laws of e-bikes b...
