Fly Rides eBikes FAQs
An electric bike is simply a bicycle equipped with a small and quiet electric motor.
As such, Electric bikes require no fossil fuels and therefore are extremely Quiet, Clean, and Green!
Beacuse they don't use a gas motor, electric bikes use a battery to supply power to the motor.
In our experience there’s a huge variety of people who love riding electric bikes. They are for everyone who feels comfortable riding a traditional bicycle, and our most frequent customers are:
• Mountain bikers who want more fun!
• Anyone that wants an eco-friendly way to get around
• House boat or yacht owners
• RV travelers
• High school and college kids
• Those without a driver’s license
• Urban dwellers who don’t want to find and pay for parking
Some ways our happy customers use their electric bikes:
• Commuting to work
• Running errands
• Joy riding
• Exercise
• Touring
• Shredding some singletrack!
Not all eBikes utilize the same technology, but most employ one of two types of motor assist:
• Pedal Assist:
Most of our bikes use Pedal Assist, the best option if you're looking to ride your electric bike like an acoustic bike with a little help (or a lot) from the motor. The motor kicks in when you pedal, and you can choose from different levels of assist to get more or less help from the motor.
• Throttle & Go:
If the bike comes equipped with a throttle, it's unnecessary for the rider to pedal- just keep in mind these bikes typically have a much reduced range.
Most importantly, because they’re super fun! Whether you have an injury, a long commute, or you just want to save your energy for the rest of your day, an electric bike is a great way to get where you’re going without getting sweaty. If you just feel a need for speed, you’ll be amazed at how far and how fast you can travel with a motor on board.
