If you want to know more about ebikes technology then read on. Of course, the technology varies from ebike to ebike, depending upon the specification (you can find details at ebike Superstore against each ebike), but in general we can think about the battery, motor and overall design of the frame and components.
ebikes use lithium batteries which are designed for long life, fast charging and giving good power output over a prolonged period of time. When used on ebikes, this means that they take only a few hours to fully charge, and on a full charge can provide powered pedalling assistance for up to 90km. The other advantage of this new generation battery is that at under 3kg they are very lightweight compared to the first generation ebike batteries that were around only a couple of years ago.
ebike motor technology has also developed considerably over a short period of time. The latest electric motors that have been developed for ebikes are small and lightweight (typically less than 5kg). This means that they can be integrated into the bike design such that the motor fits into the wheel hub, making it extremely discreet. In fact on many of the ebikes that we stock, the combination of integrated batteries in the frame and integrated motors in the hub make it difficult to tell an ebike from a normal bicycle. The other development in ebike motors that's worth noting is the introduction of "brushless" motor technology which results in minimum noise and heat emission. The amount of assistance that the motor gives the rider when pedalling is determined by the monitor controller that is positoned on the handlebar. If you want maximum assistance then set the control to maximum and you'll get the full benefit of electric power on your ebike. Alternatively, you can turn off the assistance via the control monitor and use your ebike as a normal bicycle.
When you take a look at the ebike specifications at ebike Superstore, you'll also see that they use the same high quality components as equivalent traditional bikes. For example, many of the ebikes have Suntour forks, Shimano gearsets, Continetal tyres and so on. All in all, the specification of the ebikes, coupled with the power technology makes our range of electric bikes the best in the UK.
