Ebikes are taking over Westchester. Whether you’re riding to work, running errands, or biking with your friends, electric bikes have a lot of perks.
Ebikes offer the rider a lot more than a regular bicycle does, and for a similar price. For starters, you can embark on longer, more strenuous trips with ease. With an integrated electric motor you are able to turn on the “assist” pedaling, which gives you an extra boost when riding. No more huffing and puffing when biking up a hill or arriving to work drenched in sweat! This feature also makes it effortless to bike with heavy cargo.
The assisted pedaling makes it less challenging for riders who suffer from knee or back injuries as well. Although ebikes are battery-powered, they are still a great option for getting in your exercise. Plus, electric bikes come in a variety of designs, making it easy to find a bike that fits your individual style and personal needs.
What are you waiting for? Ditch the old ways of transportation, save money on gas, and buy yourself an ebike. With plenty of brands and models out there, you have dozens of options. Scroll below for a list of some of the best places to purchase or rent an ebike in Westchester. Happy pedaling!
