Day Three: It's Aboat Time

You would think by now we might have settled into the time difference, but you'd be wrong. We slept in, like, really slept in, waking up at 10:45! But we needed the sleep and with it, were turbo charged to make the most of the day.

Since Rachel's working during the week, we have limited time, and the weekends are for seeing the bigger museums. We decided to see some of Stockholm's most famous ones: the Vasa Museum and the outdoor Skansen.

These two spots are out in a neighborhood called Djurgården, and to get there we took the subway to Central Station, and the tram over to an island on the East side of the city. We were amazed by the greenery! Imagine New York had an entire neighborhood devoted to Central Park, and all the museums. Wait, it kind of does already.

If you Google museums in Stockholm, the Vasa Museum is located on or around the top of everyone's list. It's a museum devoted to a perfectly-restored boat from the 17th century. As the legend goes (and it's not a real legend, it's actual history) the Vasa was a military vessel set to sail the Baltic. It only made it one kilometer before a strong wind hit it over and the ship took in water, quickly sinking. Of the 150+ passengers, 30 died. James Cameron could make this movie if he wanted to take a break from the blue aliens. But what was more miraculous was that due to the brackish waters of the Baltic Sea, the Vasa was not very damaged, and much of its contents were salvaged, restored and preserved.

At first you might think: what's the point? At least that's what Alex thought. But there are a few reasons that made this museum special. First, you get to see a restored ship from almost 400 years ago. It looks like the big ships of pirate fantasies. But it's also an important piece of archaeology and anthropology, providing insight into Swedish and European history, of the people who lived here, and how they worked. The museum had sections devoted to the (poor) construction of the boat, which sank due to the lack of ballast for the length, and its narrowness. We saw the inside of the ship, which was recreated almost perfectly, from the ship guns on the inside to the orate carvings along the side. It was similar to some of the temples we had seen in the past

It was very fun to see this ship and learn about these people's lives. Was it a must see? We don't know. But it was very cool!

Djurgården is also home to the Nordic Museum. We didn't go there. Instead, we did go the a place called the Skansen, an "open-air" museum that was one part zoo, one part historic Sweden! There were antique recreations of old Swedish homes, models of Swedish festivals, and enclosures with Swedish animals. We saw reindeer, moose, wolverines, and an Arctic fox!

It was a beautiful day, so we kept it going by biking along Djurgården. We rented eBikes, which made the trek so easy!

After all that walking and biking (we got a little lost), we headed back to Vasastan to relax. We bought some mineral water and candy at the store, and went home.

Oh, and we did eat today. Breakfast was at the AirBnB, lunch were yummy sandwiches, and dinner we had some burgers with a Swedish twist. Halloumi cheese on a veggie burger! Yum!

Go Where You Want

Mooncool All-Wheel Drive Ebike

Outdoor adventures are a dominant American pastime and have been for many decades. The most recent statistics show Americans spending more the $400 billion — yes, BILLION — every year.

The benefits of outdoor recreation are many and very important…no wonder it is loved by so many adults as well as children. Out of all the various forms of outdoor recreation, bike riding is the 4th most popular among Americans.

Key Benefits of Outdoor Recreation

Peace of Mind

Anxiety and depression are serious issues in American society, and dealing with it can be tough. Medical and health professionals often encourage patients to engage in regular exercise--preferably outdoors. This can improve anyone’s mood and make it easier to cope with anxiety and depression.

The human body responds to being out enjoying nature, and even just relaxing outdoors can dramatically cut down on stress. It leaves us more calm and emotionally stable. Confidence, mood, and mental clarity can all improve with regular outdoor exercise. 

Add Years to Your Life

Scientist have come to believe that regular outdoor experiences can extend your life. The exact reasons are still speculation, but there seems to be little doubt that getting outdoors helps us live happier and longer.

Control Weight and Improve Health

It is sad to note that in excess of 30 percent of Americans are classified as obese. Diet, obviously, plays a large role in weight management, but exercise is also very important. When you combine the mental and physical benefits mentioned above and add the assistance with weight control, it just makes good sense to get regular outdoor exercise.

There is little question that the gorgeous views and cleaner air help make exercise more pleasant. And when it is more pleasant, we are much more likely to get exercise regularly. Can you guess how many calories an average adult can burn in 60 minutes of walking? 300! And make that number 700 calories for an hour of bike riding.

In addition to burning calories, joints and muscles will gain in strength and flexibility. Consistent outdoor exercise is very worthwhile just to see an improvement in health! In short, decrease time spent in front of the TV, computer screen, or smart phone. Increase time spent in outdoor recreation and healthy exercise!

Making Good Health More Fun

All the benefits that come to us via outdoor recreation and consistent exercise are truly impressive. However, the “fun” aspect is crucial. If exercise is not fun, it’s easy to get burnt out and find yourself back in front of the television. That’s one of the great things about ebiking. It is so much fun that regular exercise can seem more like play and less like work!

To take full advantage of the fun in outdoor recreation, you want an ebike that can take you where you want to go. You may want to ride your ebike to work on weekdays, but when the weekend arrives, you’re ready for some outdoor adventure. Perhaps on a remote forest pathway, a scenic beach, or a high mountain trail.

In other words, a multipurpose e-bike is very desirable. It needs to be comfortable, very powerful, and capable of taking you where you want to go. That’s why Mooncool provides cyclists with the dual motor, all-wheel drive, all-terrain Mooncool MC3.

Best Choice for Cycling Fun and Exercise

Right now you may be asking yourself “What in the world is an all-wheel drive bike?” Don’t worry–you aren’t the only one! You may have seen the term in relation to automobiles, but it is becoming more and more in vogue for the ebike market. A dual motor ebike can be thought of as the marriage of a super powerful off-road bike with a comfortable cruiser-style bike.

The result is a ride that is very comfortable for cruising the streets or commuting to your workplace, but at the same time it is also very capable to take you on off-road adventures. Without all-wheel drive you can only dream about those places.

The Mooncool MC3 is an especially stable, comfortable, and convenient e-bike. Everyone loves the comfortable front suspension, and this ebike also has something that is very difficult to find in a powerful dual drive all-terrain ebike...it is designed with an available step-thru frame. The vast majority of these all-round multipurpose high-power bikes come only with step-over frames. You'll appreciate having options.

Comfort is Essential

Naturally, no matter what type of bike you ride, every rider wants to be comfortable. If the bike can’t provide a comfortable ride, then you won’t be interested in longer journeys and you may not even ride very often. The Mooncool MC3 is equipped with suspension and fat 4' wide tires for maximum comfort and stability.

Combined with an exceptionally sturdy aluminum frame and a quality vaccum foam seat, this powerful e-bike makes for a very comfortable ride both on road and off. Someone may try to tell you that fat tires are not needed, but most fat tire bike riders will disagree. Fat tires add two very important characteristics to your ride — cushioning and traction.

Fat tires are run with lower tire pressure than the narrow tires, providing a cushioning effect that helps further absorb the shock from bumps, potholes, tree roots, rocks, etc. Further, Fat tires give you much more tire tread in contact with the road or trail surface, resulting in much better traction. For even more comfort and convenience, remember that this ebike is available in an optional (no extra cost) step-thru frame.

The Mooncool MC3 provides riders with comfort, but what about all-terrain capability?

Traction and Torque for All-Terrain Riding

The Mooncool Design Team has added all the power and torque you need for all-terrain riding. Wherever you may like to ride, this super-power ride is equipped to take you there, whether on a paved road, rough forest pathways, or even steep mountain slopes. Riders can explore with confidence, knowing the MC3 gives all the needed comfort and power.  

When you think about quick starts, cruising speed, and hill-climbing ability — all these are dependent on power and torque. You want an all-terrain bike equipped with a strong motor, providing plenty of power. Those steep climbs where you catch the best views are no fun at all without a powerful high-torque motor that gets you to the top.

The Mooncool MC3 comes equipped with not one, but TWO powerful motors providing you with a total of 1300 watts peak power and a whopping 150 Neuton meters of torque. This will satisfy the demands of nearly all riders, giving you the confidence to go off-road or tackle the steepest hills.

Dual Hub Moters for Power and Torque

The choice of dual hub motors is confirmed when you realize that hub motors are far more economical than mid-drive motors. The Mooncool MC3 dual motors are an impressive combination of power, torque, and consumer-friendly pricing.

The design of mid-drive motors requires a much larger number of moving parts. This naturally means more wear and tear, along with greater possibility of motor failure. Mid-drive motors are also more complex to install or replace, which adds to the expense. Even if you are new to e-biking, with a hub motor you can be very quickly riding with confidence.

For example, shifting is often unnecessary if your bike is powered by a hub motor, and you can even shift when the bike is stopped. But with a mid-drive motor, the bike must be moving before the rider can shift, and while riding it must be shifted frequently.

 Treat Yourself to the Best

Tired of cars whizzing by you at high speeds? Sick of breathing fumes from gas and diesel engines? Weary of all the road noise? It might be time for you to get a quality all-terrain ebike and head off-road for some peace and quiet.

Sometimes you just need to “get away from it all” and enjoy a little quietness and some calming scenic beauty. A good electric bike with all-wheel drive can be just what you need. There are endless possibilities, maybe just you alone, or maybe you and a friend or your family.

Wherever you like to ride, routine commuting or off-road fun, the Mooncool MC3 should be first on your list. Review all the benefits of this e-bike, and then get yours here. As a big thank-you for reading this article, please enjoy a bonus $100 discount with this code: CRAIG100

How to ride an electric bike safely

Nowadays, people pay more and more attention to health and environmental protection. Therefore, many people choose to ride electric vehicles to work, which can also save time and effort. However, with more e-bikes on roads and trails than ever before, it's clear that many people need to learn how to use them safely. This has led to some well-documented tragic accidents involving e-bikes and heated debates about how, where, and when to use them. There are some e-bike safety tips if you are worried about safety danger when riding an electric bike.

Know your e-bike class and ride in the correct lane.

As of 2019, 22 states use a three-class system for defining e-bikes. These three classes depend on the propulsion method and the maximum speed. There are three classifications: Class 1: An ebike is class one when it has a top speed of 20 miles per hour.  Class 2: An e-bike will fall into Class 2 is equipped with a throttle-actuated motor. That motor must cease to assist when the eBike reaches 20 miles per hour. Class 3: A Class 3 e-bike is a bicycle with a motor that assists only if the rider is pedaling and should cease to help when the eBike reaches 28 miles per hour.   Class 1 and 2 bikes are the most common e-bikes for recreational riders who enjoy mountain biking, hunting, or exploring outdoors. People ride class 3 e-bikes to replace a moped or motorcycle. And they are best suited to urban road use.  The speed limit for e-bikes is 20 miles per hour or less under motor power alone. So, riders should always ride e-bikes in the bike lane, which can ensure your safety.

Be careful about the traffic.

Every cyclist should pay attention to traffic flow, but it's even more critical on an e-bike. Drivers may expect a cyclist to reach less than 20 mph on the road. And the disconnect can lead to potentially dangerous scenarios. Part of the issue with traffic is that drivers need to learn how to look out for bikes zipping by with an extra e-bike behind them. So, we recommend outfitting your bike with lights and a bell to ensure you're seen. And it's not only drivers—you might be too fast for pedestrians or other cyclists who won't hear you coming without a polite warning. Breeze Rider Ebike has Solar Electric Bike Head Light, which is perfect for your outdoor activities such as camping, running, cycling, etc.  The solar ebike light has a long battery life of 3-5 hours and comes with a 1200mAh battery. You can also charge the light via USB or solar.   

Wear helmet before riding an e-bike

Although not the most fashionable, a helmet will protect riders from severe brain, head, or face injuries—possibly even death. Moreover, an electric bike is generally faster than a regular cycle, so there is a higher accident rate. So, it becomes more important to wear a helmet. And it can also help riders become more visible to drivers, reducing the accident rate to some extent. Besides, wearing a helmet is a government requirement. Within the U.S.A, 25 states and Washington D.C. have helmet requirements for e-bike riders and passengers. 

Stand Out From the Crowd

Most e-bikes are used in urban environments where cyclists compete with other road users and external distractions, all of which are vying for a driver’s attention. Give yourself the best chance to be spotted early by wearing colors that clash with your environment. Choose high-viz colors during the day, and remember to include reflective elements in your kit if you are likely to be riding after dark, as these will glow brightly in car headlights and help to alert drivers to your presence.

Everything You Need To Know About Ebikes

Hoverboards, skateboards, scooters, motorcycles, mopeds, unicycles, tricycles, you name it, we've ridden it. But I'm here to tell you why I think electric bikes, in particular, are more than just a fun tech fad. I think they could actually be the future of transportation. But that said, there's a lot out there, and you don't wanna get fooled. So here's some stuff you need to know about e-bikes.  

Obviously, e-bikes are not new. They've been around for decades. And if you live in China or Europe, it's a good bet that e-bikes are already a way of life for you. In Europe, for example, e-bikes have long helped older adults maintain independence and are just now really blowing up with younger riders. But here in the U.S., e-bikes are still pretty niche. They only account for 4% of total bike sales. Compare that to more bike-friendly countries like the Netherlands where there are more e-bikes sold than regular bikes. Overall, experts predict that worldwide sales will hit $23.8 billion by 2025.  But Americans are slowly coming around. Sales of electric bikes in the U.S. have grown more than eight folds since 2014. It took a long time to get to this point. 

Now one of the first patents for an electric-bike was registered in 1895 by an inventor named Ogden Bolton. Now Bolton didn't actually end up making or selling any of his bikes, but amazingly some of the same design details can be found in e-bikes today. A rear hub motor with a battery centrally mounted on the frame. Now I know what you're thinking. What the hell is he talking about?  A rear hub motor, amps and volts. I don't wanna get ahead of myself. So let's talk about the basics before we get to why e-bikes are the future of transportation. 

 So generally speaking e-bikes are bicycles with a battery-powered assist that comes through when you pedal or in some cases use a throttle. Pushing on the pedal activates a small motor that gives you a boost. So when you're zipping up a hill or cruising over rough terrain, you don't have to break a sweat. Twisting a throttle does the same thing but without pedaling. 

There are two types of motors. There's the mid-drive which is located in the middle of the bike usually between the two pedals. And then there's the hub motor which is located in the center of either the front or the rear wheel. There are pros and cons to both types of motors. 

Hub drives have been around forever and tend to be cheaper and more versatile. They're really excellent motors for anyone needing a reliable e-bike for long, mostly flat commuting. Mid-drives are usually smaller and lighter and can allow for greater torque than hub drives making them well suited for hilly areas and off road use. Their center position on the bike also creates a more balanced ride. And changing a tire on a mid-drive bike is usually less of a pain in the ass. 

e-bikes for sale also tend to use different types of sensors to determine how best to dole out power. There are two types, torque sensors, and cadence sensors. Torque sensors regulate the motor based on how hard you're pushing the pedals, while cadence sensors work off of how fast you pedal. 

Good bikes use torque sensors while the low enders have cadence only, and a lot of bikes use both. I highly recommend testing out both types of motors before buying an e-bikes to see which is the best for you. Think about how you plan on using the bike. Commuting, off-roading, touring?  The better e-bikes brands usually match the appropriate motor placement with the type of bike they're selling. Most mountain bikes come with mid-range motors while the majority of commuter bikes sold in hill-less Amsterdam are hub-based. 

Now let's talk power. Manufacturers will often offer power ratings for a variety of reasons. Until recently power ratings were a way for bike companies to dance around Europe's strict importation laws which prohibited anything stronger than 250 watts. But now the continent allows the sale of bikes with way more powerful motors, which is good because it allows bikes to be seen as a viable alternative to cars. Still, power ratings can be pretty subjective, and you can probably get away with just ignoring them. 

To get a better idea of how much maximum power you'll actually feel, check to see if they list the volts and the amps. Multiply those two together to get the watt hours or the number of watts that can be delivered in an hour. This gives you a great sense of how much range you'll get. For example, Rad Power Bikes' excellent cargo bike the RadWagon has a battery pack that is 48 volts and 14 amp hours. 48 times 14 equals 672 watt hours. If you're thrifty with your energy usage, each mile you travel will cost you about 20 watt hours. Therefore, a 672 watt hour pack will get you about 34 miles of range.

 Alright, let's talk classes. There are three classes of e-bikes in the U.S. Class one is pedal assist with no throttle. Class two is throttle assisted but with a maximum speed of 20 miles per hour. In a class three, it's pedal-assist only, no throttle, but with a maximum speed of 28 miles per hour. In Europe they only have two classes. Class one, which is by far the most popular, has a maximum speed of 25 kilometers an hour with no helmet required. Class two is 1,000 watt plus motors capable of going 45 kilometer an hour, require a helmet and can't be ridden on bike paths. They're basically motorcycles. 

So where can you buy an e-bike? Well, your local bike store is honestly your best bet. You're gonna get a selection that's been curated by the owners, and the folks that work there are gonna have answers to all your burning questions. Amazon is obviously another place, but there are some pretty serious trade-offs that you have to consider. Your bike could arrive pretty banged up. And the companies that sell e-bikes on Amazon are a little bit ephemeral, here one day, gone the next. It's not just Amazon of course. 

A majority of the e-bikes sold in the U.S. are just cobbled together from off-the-shelf Chinese made parts that you can find in the catalog. And if that sounds easy, it's because it is. It helps explain why there are like a billion e-bikes companies on Kickstarter and Indiegogo trying to impress you with their flashy designs and futuristic tech. Many don't come with warranties or any customer support. And it's very likely that you're buying a Chinese model that's just been rebranded for Western marketing and sold at a markup. If you find an e-bike that you like, an interesting test is to search the bike's specs on Alibaba to see if something similar is being sold in Asia. It might even be cheaper. 

Alright, so I promised to explain why I think that e-bikes are the future of transportation. So here we go. First, it lowers the barrier to biking. So if you're someone who's older or you're stressed out about the strains of biking, it really lowers the barrier, and it's easier to justify getting on a bike and just ride. You're more likely to ditch your car or delete you Uber app if you know you're gonna get to where you wanna go without getting sweating and stressed out. And look, if you're worried about electric bikes taking all the fun out of cycling, well, you're wrong. A study of the cognitive and psychological effects of outdoor cycling actually found the same results for e-bikes and traditional bikes.

 Let's say climate change has got you down.  Electric bikes are way more sustainable than electric cars. They're gonna make our cities more livable, and they're gonna help clear up traffic congestion. So as our cities are becoming more congested, some companies are turning to e-bikes to make their deliveries. Domino's Pizza recently announced they're gonna be using Rad Power Bikes to make pizza deliveries in some cities. UPS is using electric cargo bikes. German delivery company DPD is gonna be using these really cute looking mini trucks that are actually e-bikes in disguise. E-bikes are changing the way that businesses are doing business. 

So the other day I was riding an e-bike to work, and a remarkable thing happened. Well, first, I wasn't killed, which, in a city as deadly for bikers as New York, is a minor miracle. But more importantly I got to the office super quick, much faster than if I had taken the subway, and I wasn't a sweaty, stressed out mess when I arrived. Here e-bikes are almost exclusively used by food deliver workers, and it got me thinking about how far behind the rest of the world the U.S. is when it comes to bikes. We see them more as recreation than as transportation. Something to be used in fair weather and not in the rain and the snow like the Dutch do. But come on, our U.S. women's team just beat them in the World Cup. Surely we can compete in the saddle as well. Our streets are designed for cars, and pedestrians and bikers are really just an afterthought. But e-bikes can open up a whole world, especially for people with different abilities. Look, they're not gonna solve everything, but I can guarantee that once you start riding, you're not going to wanna stop. Did we make that word up? Is that a real word, rideable?

Ebikes for outdoor recreation- The folding electric bike

Have you ever considered biking to work rather than taking your car? What was that stopped you? Perhaps it was the thought of negotiating that one truly steep hill, or perhaps you get free parking anyway and you want to avoid dealing with the additional trouble of getting a safe space to store your bike. Okay, no worry as it is time you should consider Ebikes for outdoor recreation.

Some of these bikes are full, normal sized bikes that can go anywhere a regular bike will be able to travel. Some of the folding bikes have smaller tires and a low profile.

The fun thing about the idea to buy hunting bikes online is making it simple to take them with you wherever you have to go. This implies that after you ride the bike to work, you can just fold up your bicycle and take it within with you. No more looking for a secured place to lock it up or getting a parking space!

Most of the electric bike accessories for hunters are lighter than the regular bikes, made of latest metals and alloys that are specifically strong for their lighter weight and ebikes are not any exception.

If you are using the power-assist mode available on most of the ebikes, the bike can tell how fast and how hard you are pedaling and it will automatically math that torque and speed. Most of the foldable ebikes have a range of 18 to 25 miles on a single charge of one battery, and some get up to 25 miles per hour is definitely nothing to leer at on the local roads.

With foldable Ebikes for outdoor recreation, you can get where you are going faster, more conveniently and easily than either a car or a conventional bike, and once you are there, you can fold your bike for simple storage or further transport. It truly is the perfect combination.

Farther, Faster and No Sweat: Bike-Sharing and the E-Bike Boom As with all bicycles during the pandemic, electric bikes, or those with battery-powered motors to handle propulsion, boomed. The market research firm NPD Group said sales of e-bikes grew 145 percent in 2020 compared to 2019, outpacing sales of all bikes, which were up 65 percent. “Bike categories that catered to families and recreational and newer riders grew better than more performance-oriented bikes,” said Dirk Sorenson, a sports industry analyst at NPD, adding that e-bikes “overcome challenges like big hills or going on a longer ride than a typical bike.” But it’s not just consumer sales that have mainstreamed e-bikes. Municipal bike-sharing systems have increasingly adopted the technology, with some cities, including Charlotte, N.C., going with an all-electric fleet during the pandemic. Social distancing demands, the quest for safe and more accessible public transportation and sustainable travel measures have forged a growing adoption of e-bikes among travelers as well as local residents. “Covid sort of propelled electric bikes forward by years,” said Josh Squire, the founder and chief executive of Hopr, a bike-share service. Cities, bike-sharing companies and even a peer-to-peer bike-sharing platform (in which bike owners rent their bikes directly to users) are jumping into the e-bike ecosystem. Here’s how bike-sharing — sometimes called “micromobility” to include other small vehicles, such as scooters — has shifted in the tourism lull. Covid did not kill bike-sharing In the early days of the pandemic, bike-share usage stalled as those working from home stopped commuting. For essential workers who needed to travel, bike-sharing became an alternative to buses or trains, where they might be exposed to the virus by other passengers. Lyft, which manages bike-share fleets in nine cities — including the largest systems in New York City and Chicago — gave about 30,000 essential workers free yearly passes. “Covid was able to highlight micromobility as an essential transportation service, filling in where transit service stopped or where gaps existed and helping essential workers get to work,” said Samantha Herr, the executive director of the North American Bikeshare Association. As people began to leave their houses in summer, biking rebounded. In Honolulu, nearly 80 percent of members of the bike-sharing system Biki said riding was the safest form of public transportation during the pandemic. In Chicago, the Divvy bike-share system recorded its busiest month on record in August. In New York City, where Citi Bike added 3,700 new bikes in 2020, ridership exceeded 2019 levels in the last four months of 2020, according to a monthly report filed with the New York City Department of Transportation. The company said 27 percent of rides were deemed “casual,” or recreational, in 2020, versus 17 percent in 2019, with the most popular stations around hospitals and parks, reflecting the mix of essential and casual uses. Biking was clearly a remedy for cabin fever, and bike sharing is an affordable cure. In Miami, where hand sanitizer dispensers were installed at Citi Bike Miami stations, casual users have taken about 40 percent of rides in 2021 as tourism has ticked up. Colby Reese, the co-founder of DecoBike, which runs Citi Bike Miami, estimates about half a million visitors annually used the bike-share system before the pandemic. Plans are in place to add about 200 e-bikes this summer to the existing 2,000-bike fleet. “Because of Covid, outdoor things are more popular than they were before,” he said. E-bikes for the people The electrification of bike-share systems, accelerating now, has been underway for several years. In 2018, the Bikeshare Planning Guide from the Transformative Urban Mobility Initiative, a global initiative on sustainable transportation, called them “ideal for bikeshare because of their otherwise high upfront cost to users, and they can improve user comfort by reducing often-cited barriers to cycling such as fatigue, sweating, and longer-distance or hilly trips.” According to the North American Bikeshare Association, in 2019, the last year for which statistics are available, 28 percent of bike-sharing systems had e-bikes. It found e-bikes were used more intensively than traditional bikes, at a rate 1.7 times higher. In 2019, when the Madison BCycle fleet in Madison, Wis., went electric, usage more than doubled. Novelty was a driver, along with affordability. “To be able to try an e-bike for a very low rate for a day pass is what draws people initially to try it out,” said Helen Bradley, the general manager of Madison BCycle, where a day pass costs $15. “Then they get hooked,” she added, on the range of the bikes, which can go 30 to 35 miles on a full charge with top speed of about 17 miles per hour. Chicago plans to have 10,000 e-bikes in its Divvy system by 2022 — it added 3,500 e-bikes in 2020 — in a plan to provide accessibility to 100 percent of the city. Updated  March 2, 2021, 5:39 a.m. ET Adopting e-bikes hasn’t come without growing pains. In New York City, Citi Bike introduced e-bikes in 2018, but removed them in 2019 after reports of brakes malfunctioning, causing rider injuries (similar problems forced Lyft, which manages Citi Bike, to temporarily withdraw e-bikes from its systems in Washington, D.C. and San Francisco). Last winter, New York re-introduced Citi Bike e-bikes, which reach maximum speeds of 18 m.p.h., below the limit of 20 m.p.h. later set by the city for the pedal-assisted e-bikes. There are now about 3,700 e-bikes in the 19,000-bike system; the average e-bike gets over nine rides a day, while the average for pedal bikes is 3.5. “Putting a little bit of a motor on it makes cycling more attractive to a wider and aging audience,” said Aaron Ritz, who oversees the Indego bike-share system for the City of Philadelphia. Over the next five years, the Indego system will more than double in size, making half the fleet electric and focusing on historically underserved neighborhoods, which tend to be Black or Latin American. “The more we shift from single-occupancy vehicles, the better, for reasons of air quality, traffic safety, environmental impact and greenhouse gas emissions,” Mr. Ritz said. Gregory F. Maassen, 53, a resident of Washington, D.C., describes the district’s Capital Bikeshare e-bikes as “built like tanks to withstand a lot of abuse.” E-bike aficionados, like Mr. Maassen, who founded a social group called E-bike Lovers, prefer higher-end bikes, but credit bike-sharing as a gateway for introducing them to a broader audience. “Interest in bike-share systems has had a great impact on the acceptance of e-bikes,” he said. “It gives people a low-cost entry into this new technology.” E-bikes can be purchased for a few hundred dollars, though most fans say quality bikes start around $1,500 and go much higher. But finding a fully charged bike is crucial, said Richard Strell, 68, a Bay Wheels bike-share rider in San Francisco. “I started using e-bikes because of Covid and I don’t own a car in San Francisco,” he said, noting that e-bikes with only seven or eight miles left on the battery were too weak to get him up hills. “I was excited, but it turned out to be disappointing.” Going farther, faster and mainstream Shared bike systems always aimed to go the “last mile” or fill the gap between public transit hubs and your destination. E-bikes makes them more serious contenders as transportation options by going farther with less effort. “If I can get someplace farther or faster, that matters when you’re picking a mode of transportation,” said Bill Dossett, the executive director of Nice Ride Minnesota, the nonprofit that started the shared mobility system in Minneapolis, now operated by Lyft, which plans to add about 2,000 e-bikes this spring. Lyft, the country’s largest bike-share service, has added transit information on its rideshare app in 17 cities to better coordinate with public transportation systems, in addition to showing available drivers, bikes and scooters. In Denver, users can buy transit passes through the app. “We’re giving people a user-friendly way to piece together trips and allow them to explore a city that historically would have been much harder,” said Caroline Samponaro, Lyft’s head of micromobility policy. The success of electric bikes and scooters has encouraged Bolt Mobility, which is in about 21 cities and college campuses, to develop electric mopeds, three-wheeled bikes and minicars, electric vehicles that offer more stability and protection. “These devices aren’t supposed to be just for 20-year-old kids, they’re supposed to be for everyone,” said Ignacio Tzoumas, the chief executive of Bolt Mobility. Bolt, which was co-founded by the Olympic gold-medalist sprinter Usain Bolt, has plans to bring its e-bikes and scooters to Tokyo in time for the Olympic Games this summer. Private bike-share systems predicted While most bike-share systems are affiliated with cities, entrepreneurs foresee a future in private bike shares for hotel guests, apartment complex renters or company employees. The peer-to-peer bike-sharing platform Spinlister is developing a private model that would station Rokit Ebikes at a hotel, for example, which could offer access as an amenity, leaving the management and maintenance to Spinlister. Before the pandemic, Hopr had plans to take its services, which include e-bikes, to hotels and create private bike-share systems, an effort paused by the dearth of travel. “We come from sharing and have the technology to unlock a bike from an app and rent it so it’s no hassle for the hotel,” Mr. Squire of Hopr said.
