How Exactly Do Electric Bikes Work?
E-bikes run on an electric motor that draws power from the lithium ion battery pack. Class 1 e-bikes, ( most all E-bike mountain bikes), are assisted and propelled forward by manually pedaling, and have a top assist of 20 mph. Class 2 and Class 3 e-bikes ( commuter style e-bikes) have a throttle to assist and work in tandem when pedaling; or by acting alone, like the throttle on a moped or motorcycle, with top motor speeds of 25 and 28 mph, respectively. Either way, you can hum right along by pedaling with 5 levels of assistance, or just by hitting the throttle and using the electric motor only.
