The world
has been changing with climate-related issues, and transportation is one of the most common concerns. Since the invention of the wheel, humanity
has looked toward traveling further and faster to the point that most of the
world is dependent on some form of transportation. One solution that has been
making headway in more populated areas is the bicycle with an electric motor
or E-bike. There are many different forms of the E-bike, but most systems have
the essential components of an electric motor, battery, throttle control, and wiring. Some come with regenerative brakes, a battery charge display, or an LCD display. The
electric bike can be set up as a pedal assist or power-on-demand. The pedal assists E-bikes
are usually set by sensors that regulate the electric
motor by pedaling. The power on demand is a throttle connected to the battery
and turns on the electric motor when pushed. The E-bike can be either chain
driven or bet driven and receive power on the front tire, rear tires, or
pedals. Most modern tire drives are hub conducted these days.
The batteries
for electric bikes are the same as any other battery. They come in different
sizes, are made of different compounds, and are variable in the same way. The
batteries can be damaged by overcharging or being run down too low or from
water, and the most common problem in these electrical systems is loose
connections. Water can also cause the throttle control to malfunction, but the
more people choose to use these E-bikes, the more problems are solved with
innovative thinking. The E-bike is an excellent choice for many people,
for example, elderly people, people living in areas with hills, someone hauling
goods home, or someone who is simply tired. The E-bike technology can be
integrated with solar charging stations making for cheap operation costs, not to
mention the health benefits associated with the exercise. E-bikes
can cut back on the need for automobiles in inner city travel, thus making e-bikes
a sustainable way to travel.
