There are all kinds of facts about e-bikes that you should know before you decide on a model. Although the different types look pretty much the same, there are still some major differences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The answer to this question depends on the terrain and motor of your model and varies accordingly. Basically, there are two classifications: E-bikes that support you up to 25 km\/h and those that support you up to a speed of 45 km\/h.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Up to 25 km\/h (light motorbikes)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n A normal e-bike supports you up to a speed of 25 km\/h. The power must not exceed 500 W and they are called light motorbikes. The pedal assistance must be no more than 20 km\/h.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No number plate is required for this category and you do not have to take out liability insurance. In addition, helmets are not compulsory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Up to 45 km\/h (motorised bicycles)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n And how fast does an S-pedelec go? These models are considered to be real motorised bicycles and have a motor with up to 1000 W power, which supports you up to a speed of 45 km\/h. The maximum speed of the pedal assistance may not exceed 45 km\/h. The pedal assistance may not exceed 45 km\/h. The maximum speed of the pedal-assist can be 30 km\/h.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here, a yellow number plate and the conclusion of liability insurance are obligatory. A helmet is also compulsory. Find out here how to get a number plate and what you need to do to register.<\/p>\n\n\n\n E-bikes can also be ridden at walking speed without your pedal assistance, whereas pedelecs only support you when you pedal. Pedelec means Pedal Electric Cycle and S-Pedelec stands for Speed Pedal Electric Cycle. They fall into the category of light motorbikes (up to 25km\/h), while an S-pedelec belongs to the category of motorbikes (up to 45 km\/h).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Price differences <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a significant price difference between the two categories for the following reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Firstly, to reach the higher speed of 45 km\/h, a more powerful motor is necessary, which entails higher costs. On the other hand, the equipment differs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A fast e-bike often has a battery with a higher capacity, the brakes are stronger to ensure safety at high speed, and a high beam must not be missing either. The surcharge is mainly made up of these technical refinements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Who is a 45 km\/h e-bike suitable for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are looking for an alternative means of transport for your commute and don’t want to arrive at your destination sweaty, a 45 km\/h e-bike is the right choice for you. This way you can enjoy the ride and at the same time not lose efficiency. Safety is definitely more important with a fast model than with conventional models.
