Eco-Friendly Features of Electric Bikes for Metro Residents

By Nia Lawrence


The difficulties of commuting assails us daily as we traverse the main roads of Australia to reach our destinations every morning. The heavily trafficked streets and the unexpected circumstances, like a speeding violation, that come up during the trip can negatively affect the quality of our performance on the job or in school. Much worse than road issues are the bad effects of noise pollution and carbon emissions on our health. Fortunately, the electric bikes Australia manufactures within its territories deliver the same level of comfort and speed rate as traveling by public transportation. The powerful motor of an eco-bike turned an ordinary two-wheeler into a lean green machine that can reach a speed rate of thirty-five kilometres per hour when assisted by pedal action. Boosting the bike's motor functions is a powerful pack of li-ion batteries that are rechargeable for up to five hundred times before they need to be replaced. Most of all, these eco-friendly bicycles are foldable and easy to store in the boot of your car.

The electric bike Australia cyclists like to bring along on one of their out-of-town trips to the coast or the countryside has now become the ideal ride for commuters in the Metro areas. These eco-bikes were made from lightweight, durable, and high-grade materials using processes that comply with international standards in manufacturing. Pedaling through the streets in one of these e-bikes with the motor running can reach a speed rate of thirty-five kilometres per hour. When the its lithium-ion battery pack has been charged to full capacity, the electric bike can travel as far as eighty kilometres without stopping. Moreover, the bike runs better on flat ground with a rider of average weight carrying a light load.

Products like electric bikes Australia offered to metro residents consist of the urban hybrid and the metro cruiser. The hybrid eco-bike has the combined features of a touring bike and a commuter bike while the cruiser features a modernised look with hi-tech elements. More than the usual fittings of an ordinary bike, the hybrid electric bike also has advanced functions such as the power and speed controls that are supported by the fault diagnostic system to prevent gear locking and overheating. In terms of functionality, the state-of-the-art cruiser is as advanced in its design as the hybrid. It also features similar gear options with derailer and micro shifter; plus, marine grade stainless steel bike fittings for the hybrid eco-bike.

Aesthetically, the electric bike Australia is designed for an urban lifestyle. The black-and-white detailing for the bike's frame consisted of four coats of glossy paint oven-baked for quick drying. Behind the seat is a Phylion carrier with buckle, battery lock, and tail light. Both tyres have puncture proof tubes and shatterproof mud guards made of strong synthetic thermoplastic resin. The bike wheels have double-wall aluminum rims and spokes made from marine grade stainless steel. More importantly, reflectors on the silver alloy pedals signal other motorists of the cyclist's presence while traveling at night.

Lastly, both types of electric bikes Australia residents can use were equipped with a 36-volt lithium-ion battery. It comes with a Smart charger that can be plugged into a 100-volt or 220-volt outlet. The charger's auto-stop function activates once fully charged to prevent damage to the battery. Both bike models have a 200W motor that's compliant to international quality standards.
