Electric Bikes

Electric bikes are the perfect alternative for short-distance travel. Electric bikes, which run on battery power, are an energy-efficient choice for those who wish to avoid polluting the air with fossil fuels.

While electric bikes have not yet made an impact in North America, they are in wide use in Europe in Asia, where the sting of high fuel costs is felt.

Electric bikes, electric scooters, or "e-bikes" offer the feel of regular bicycle transportation with an addition of added power for longer distance travel. Many electric bikes are capable of powering the rider up to distances of 25km on a single charge.

Attractive bike designs, lighter carriages, and better electrical systems are making electric bikes more popular. The combination of regular "human power" with make these hybrid-powered vehicles an ideal choice for commuters, recreational users, and cost-conscious riders.
