e-bikes
Battery-assisted two-wheelers
E-bikes are bicycles with integrated electric motors that assist pedaling.
Most require the rider to pedal to activate the motor, though some can operate on throttle alone.
They make cycling accessible to people who might struggle with hills or distances: She commutes on an e-bike now that she doesn't have to worry about arriving sweaty.
Also written as ebikes or electric bikes.
