Batteries will eventually need replacing, but modern batteries are designed to last for several years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As with a normal bike you\u2019ll also need to replace components such as brake pads, chains and cassettes, but with good care and attention, this doesn\u2019t have to be a regular expense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yamaha and Bosch are widely considered the market leaders, with Shimano\u2019s system also a very reliable option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All electric bikes are capped at 15.6mph\/25kph, above this, the motor will stop providing assistance, but that\u2019s not to say you can\u2019t pedal it or fly down a hill to go faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The average is generally between 45 and 60 miles but will depend on other factors like riding conditions. All of our e-bikes have digital displays that show the battery life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Charging time will vary based on the size of the battery, but on average e-bike batteries will take 3-4 hours to fully charge from empty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n No, you don\u2019t. As they are limited to 15.6mph\/25kph and don\u2019t have a throttle they are classified as ordinary bicycles so you can ride them wherever you are allowed to ride a standard bicycle and you don\u2019t need to be registered or taxed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Insurance is not required to ride your e-bike on the road. However, you may consider taking out insurance on your bike to cover things such as theft, damage or repairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Definitely not! Having a little assistance can help you reach new trails, distant cafes or climb summits that you would never have been able to before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are also a growing number of cycling events and professional competitors within e-bike categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s important to consider your lifestyle and what you’ll mostly get up to on your bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Read our E-bike Buying Guide to help you decide the type of E-bike that is best for you.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Of course!
