DJ Bikes Review – Buyer’s Guide
When you are looking for e-bikes, you need to keep the following considerations in your mind:
Batteries
The quality and size of the battery matters – you need to determine how far you will be traveling on a single charge. Additionally, you also need to understand how much you can push the motor while on a tricky route. Hence, the ratings on the battery are extremely rating. The unit is Watts hours (Wh) and will give you how far you can travel on a single charge with the full assist mode. If you divide the Wh by 20, you should get the approximate range.
Motors
A motor is another powering component of the e-bike. E-bikes have different assist levels to dictate how much assist, or power, you can get from the motor. You need to remember that the higher the assist, the shorter will be the range. Therefore, before planning for a long journey, make sure that you use the full assist mode wisely. Most e-bikes are fitted with either of the two motor types – crank drive or hub drive.
Maintenance
One of the most common misconceptions about e-bikes is that they are not easy to repair and/or maintain. Then, some say the assistance and help from professionals are very expensive to keep the bike running in a smooth condition. However, this is not true at all! E-bikes are just as durable as normal bikes; also you just need to go occasionally to get the main mechanical parts like the brakes, gearings, and chain checked and serviced.
Get your research done
When you are looking for an e-bike, it is recommended that you get your research done. You should not choose just one at first; line your choices up and weigh the pros and cons of each e-bike. This way, you will understand which bikes are most suited to your riding style or purpose. You will also be able to prioritize the components and features you want on your e-bike.
