Electric Bicycles is the complete guide to the technology and history of electric bikes, and how to buy them, including numerous full colour photos and graphics throughout.
Why ride an electric bike? Once you know the advantages you'll ask why not:
- Effortless pedalling up hills
- No-sweat commuting - literally
- Greater acceleration and so greater safety
- Ever-increasing battery range, with some models achieving 70km plus
Electric Bicycles covers all aspects of this rapidly growing form of transport and leisure riding, with chapters on history and development, classic models, choosing and using and much, much more. Little known until recently, electric bikes are advancing rapidly, both in terms of popularity and technology.
David Henshaw has edited and published A to B magazine, specialising in folding and electric bikes, since 1997. Richard Peace is founder of Excellent Books, specialising in cycle publishing, and has been writing about cycling for more than 15 years.
