Should You Buy an E-Bike? Yes, and Here's Why.

Electronic bikes are an impressive piece of technology. E-bikes have a motor that assists while you're pedalling, allowing you to accelerate easily. The results in a comfortable and relaxed ride, even while you're pedalling on a slope.

Not only are e-bikes eco-friendly, but they're also really good for your health and fitness. If you're unsure about your stance on e-bikes, here are some positive and surprising facts that may make you a fan.

E-Bikes are good for your health.

Bikes, in general, are extremely good for your health, and it's obviously apparent that e-bikes are better for your health than riding a car. But did you know that e-bikes are just as good at promoting health and fitness as regular bikes? A study conducted at the University of Basel in Switzerland found just that. In fact, e-bikes might be even better for health and fitness than regular bikes. This is because e-bikes allow for consistent cardio aerobic exercise without you having to strain your muscles to accelerate every now and then. Gbike E-bikes aid the acceleration, and you mostly have to pedal with a consistent force. A prime example, is the GBike Cruiser Express , it has several different modes that allow you to select and decide how much assistance you want from the motor. You can choose the "full-electric mode" for slopes and initial acceleration and "pure pedal riding mode" to maintain the speed for yourself. Consistent pedalling allows for a constant heart rate and a constant rate of energy expenditure, giving you all the benefits of cardio aerobic exercise such as protection from heart disease, diabetes, Alzheimer's, and many other age-related diseases.

If you use a normal bike, you might get tired and revert back to using a car. With an GBike e-bike, you’re less likely to do that. Get out there is a more likely result. 

E-bikes are extremely eco-friendly.

Electronic vehicles, in general, are much better for the environment than vehicles that run on fossil fuels. But even electronic vehicles get electric power from charging stations which are powered via fossil fuels. An average electric car consumes about 15kWh of energy per 100km. Compared to this, the Backbender Gbike can cover this distance with ease while spending even less than 1.5kWh. This means that even a single eco-friendly electric car releases more carbon dioxide indirectly than 100 or more e-bikes combined.

If you're concerned for the our planet and want to contribute in the fight against climate change, you can eliminate your carbon footprint by choosing a GBike e-bike. Since e-bikes offer a more relaxed ride than a regular bike, you're also more likely to consistently use an e-bike, making it potentially an even more eco-friendly choice than a normal bike.

E-bikes are the future.

E-bikes cause almost no damage to the environment. This combined with their increasingly competitive speed, makes e-bikes a perfect candidate for the transport of the future. 

Since the industrial revolution, the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere has been contributing to global warming, and the planet is warming up faster than ever seen before. If this rate continues, many areas of the planet may drown in water, whereas many other regions near the equator may become inhospitable for humans. This calls for a serious change in our means and modes of transport.

Electric cars are not as bad for the environment as fuel cars, but they cost a lot and are not a realistic solution for most regions of the world. But climate change is not going to wait for economic development. Here, GBike e-bikes offer a cheaper and much more eco-friendly solution. It's likely that future generations of e-bikes will be the most common means of transport in 2050.

Economic and Responsible

E-bikes spend more than a hundred times less energy per kilometer than fueled and electric cars. This makes e-bikes not only good for the environment but also extremely economical. All this, combined with the fact that an e-bike allows you to exercise while you're commuting to your work, makes choosing e-bikes a no-brainer. Whether you need a bike for yourself or for your kids, e-bikes are inarguably the most responsible and considerate choice.

Conclusion

E-bikes are not that hard to find if you're at the right place. If you are in Canada you easily can find an extensive collection of amazing e-bikes at affordable prices at your local Gbike e-bike store. Or simply shoot a online order and we will get you out there.
