  Workers have been cycling to and from work for as long as there have been bicycles. Bicycle commuting is growing once again, this time largely due to the benefits that electric bikes provide for the commuter.To get more news about ebike for sale, you can visit magicyclebike.com official website.

  Benefits of Electric Commuter Bikes
  The most common complaint to bicycle commuting is something to the effect of "I don't want to show up to work all sweaty and out of breath."

  A quality ebike resolves that complaint, by providing pedal-assist power to the drive system. With assisted speeds up to 28 mph, you can ride up any hill just as fast as you would be going down. You can maintain speed without working up a sweat, and show up fresh and invigorated from your ride.
  
  Your daily commuter ebike also helps you avoid volatile gas prices, automobile maintenance, and the daily cost and time of finding a parking space.Perhaps most significantly, riding an electric commuter bike can contribute to your overall well-being. You get some exercise (but not "too much"), avoid the stress of driving in traffic and get the feeling of joy of riding a bike.

  Many bicycle commuters ride road bikes, largely for their speed. Others might ride their mountain bikes because, well, that's what they have, and maybe the suspension forks provide a little more comfort crossing over the bumps.

  Yes, road bikes are fast, but they lack comfort. The high pressure tires transfer every little bump into your wrists and body. The low rider position can be uncomfortable in work clothes, and reduces your visibility. And mountain bikes? They are made for trails and can be slow and not great for commuting.

  Electric bicycles with fat tires free you from the discomforts of road and mountain bike frames.

  Fat tire electric bikes provide a comfortable, fast means of bike commuting. You'll travel at a steady 20 mph or faster with ease. The fat tires provide comfort, control and safety. The lower air pressure provides more cushion and suspension, while the wider tires provide control over uneven surfaces, gaps in the road and wet or slippery conditions.
  Yes, fat tires and their rims add a little weight and friction, but the power of your electric bike motor - usually a rear-hub motor - eliminates and sense of extra weight or effort. In fact, you'll feel more in control and have that steady speed that will keep you up with even the road bikes.

  Emergency stopping distance is also a lot shorter. Whether you have mechanical or hydraulic disc brakes, the combination of the fat tires and the disc brakes means you can stop much faster, boosting your safety factor while ebike commuting.

  Commuter Ebike Styles
  Your commuter ebike can have a high-step or low-step through frame, could be an electric folding bike, or even an electric cargo bike if you need to transport your kids to school first. What's most important is that you select an ebike that is comfortable, reliable and matches your style - so you ride more frequently and with a broader smile on your face.

  Think about your comfort of riding, safety features on the ebike, and about your personal style preferences. Don't settle for something bland, get something that thrills you!
  Use google maps, set to bike setting, and local, up-to-date bike maps to plan your commuting route. It will likely be different than the way you would drive! Find trails, paths, protected lanes, parks and side streets that get you away from traffic as much as possible. Use streets that have lower speed limits, so you are more in line with the flow.

  For easy viewing of your route on your smart phone, install an ebike cellphone holder on your handlebars, so you can navigate and ride at the same time.
