MEMIT's, E-bike Journey begun during the beginning of the pandemic, while working from home remotely tending to all corporate and home end users IT Support needs.
When it was the time to return to the offices, E-bike's made commuting become much more pleasant, smart, good for mental - physical wellbeing & saving money.
“cycling on an electric bike just a few times each week can improve an adult's cardiorespiratory performance and general health in ways similar to riding a conventional bicycle or taking vigorous walks”
Electric bikes, or e-bikes, are cycles that have an electric motor fitted. Are becoming a popular alternative to the car, train for daily activities like commuting and shopping, helping to reduce pollution and protect the environment. Allowing anyone to go longer distances and get fit while doing so. 🙌
Pedal Assist System is beneficial to all riders because it allows them to ride farther, faster, conquer hills, and overcome physical limitations. With a freedom to change the level of pedal assist, riders can decide how much exercise they want, when they want to push themselves, and they will no longer be afraid of steep hills. While some riders say pedal assist is cheating, we disagree because we find that pedal assist helps riders extend their distance and time on a bike as well as ride tougher terrain which they may have previously avoided. No matter a riders' starting physical level, pedal assist can encourage riders to spend more time being active and find an exercise routine that works for them. Over time, the level of pedal assist chosen may drop from level 5 to level 2 and riders will feel more confident riding at their own assist level.
As technologies advance quality E-bikes are becoming more affordable, but you need to be careful where and from you purchase to ensure you are purchasing a safe E-bike's. 🙏
We currently offer a range of E-Bikes named after the founder of MEMIT:
PASHA 250
PASHA 500
PASHA 1000
PASHA BEAST (one of the best off road performing E-Bike's on the market, well balanced and fast as hell!
We have advised and helped many of our customers make their transition to an E-bike, benefiting from exercise and also saving them money along the way.
Electric bikes, or e-bikes, are bikes that have an electric motor fitted. This provides power that can help you with pedalling.
An e-bike can help you go further, for longer, than you might otherwise without motor support.
They are also able to carry larger loads, making shopping even easier.
How much support it can offer depends on the different settings you choose, but you need to pedal for the motor to work.
E-bikes are also equipped with a battery that will need to be recharged between rides.
In very simple terms an e-bike works by adding oomph when you pedal.
Sensors detect when you are pedalling and the e-bike then supplies extra power via a motor either in the wheels or at the crank.
These sensors can tell how fast or hard you are pedalling and add extra power as you require it.
More expensive e-bikes use torque sensors to tell how hard you are pedalling and then smoothly add the extra power. This is especially helpful on hills or when pulling away at traffic lights.
The energy is stored in a battery, this is usually attached to the rack or the frame. In some e-bikes, the battery is hidden inside the tubes of the frame.
The battery is charged using a charger plugged into the mains, just like a mobile phone.
Batteries do come in a variety of sizes and usually the bigger the battery the further you can go on one charge.
These are located in the hub of the front wheel and are usually found on the most affordable e-bikes.
These motors provide good levels of power for getting around town but are less suitable for very hilly areas.
These motors work with derailleur and hub gears.
These are often more powerful and quieter than front-wheel motors.
Because they power the rear wheel they usually feel more like riding a conventional bike.
These motors usually only have derailleur gears. And they work well on bikes designed for city and trail riding.
These are located by the pedals.
They're usually more powerful and more sophisticated than wheel motors and so can give you more support and deliver it with a more natural feel.
They will work with both derailleur and hub gears.
They're great for all terrains and are ideal for electric mountain bikes.
E-bikes are legal in the UK, for those over the age of 14.
Electric bikes are known as ‘electrically assisted pedal cycles’ (EAPCs).
You do not need a licence to ride one and they don’t need to be registered, taxed or insured.
For an e-bike to be legal in the UK it cannot provide power unless you are pedalling, otherwise, it would be an electric motorbike and require insurance and registration.
E-bikes are restricted by how fast they are allowed to go, and can only go up to 15.5mph.
Electric bikes are also subject to the same road laws as other bikes.
For example, it is legal to ride a bike or e-bike on cycle paths and shared-use paths, as well as on the road.
Most e-bikes are not completely waterproof. So, for example, you can ride them in the rain, but they shouldn’t be ridden through streams.
Try to take care when cleaning your e-bike too, especially if using a power hose and don’t point the jet at any of the connection points.
E-bikes are perfect for hills, they provide the extra power to help get you to the top.
They still require you to make some effort though.
And they're often fitted with hydraulic disc brakes.
These are more efficient than normal rim brakes, so be aware that if you pull the brakes hard. You will stop very quickly.
There a number of factors that affect this, like hills, wind and how hard you pedal.
It will also depend on the amount of assistance you use.
If the e-bike is on the Eco Setting you might 40-50 miles from a full battery.
If you use the Turbo Setting, this is likely to be reduced to around 30 miles.
Batteries can last for 25 to 100 miles, depending on which settings you ride with, if the battery is fully charged and how powerful it is.
Note that batteries don’t recharge while cycling on most e-bikes – batteries are much more powerful than they used to be so it’s not necessary.
Instead, you’d recharge the battery between rides.
And if the battery goes flat while out and about? Just pedal anyway, like a normal bike.
It may be harder work to cycle though, so be prepared. Or stay prepared by carrying a charger with you on your journey.
