How does a ebike work?

An eBike works by using a battery and motor to provide power to the rider through pedal-assist or throttle-based acceleration. When the rider pedals, sensors in the bike's system detect the motion and provide an electric boost to the pedals, making it easier to ride uphill or against strong winds. The amount of assistance can be adjusted using different pedal-assist levels, which vary depending on the bike model. Alternatively, some ebikes use a throttle to control the bike's speed, which doesn't require any pedaling. The battery provides the power for the motor, and its capacity and range vary depending on the bike model. Overall, ebikes are designed to provide a more efficient and comfortable riding experience, with less physical strain and more flexibility for riders of all abilities.
