An electric bike is a true hybrid vehicle.

You can pedal it, run on the electric, or both.

It doesn't put out fumes, noise, or vibration the way a moped does.


If you are a real bicyclist, you wouldn't bother. I am a very amatuer biker and love the electric bike. It is quick, simple, and fun.

It is harder to pedal when not using the electric at all, but that's mostly my extra heavy batteries.

Try an electric bike sometime. You will be hooked!
