Electric bicycles are gaining in popularity and it looks like they are here to stay! The growing popularity of electric bicycles allows them to develop very quickly in our modern cities. Even the most dedicated hipster fixie bike cannot deny the growing number of the worldwide sales of electric bicycles. Holland, a country already known for using bicycles as its main means of transport, has seen a huge increase in the number of electric bicycles on the roads. In 2009, Dutch bicycle shops saw sales of electric bicycles exceed those of standard bicycles. In order to understand the future of electric bicycles, it is also very important to understand the bicycles themselves. In general, electric bicycles come in three different styles: engine assist, pedal assist and electric accelerator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The engine assist is a combination of the three styles, it allows the user to engage the engine to give more power to the pedal, to accelerate without pedalling, to disengage the engine and to ride only with the power of the legs.
Pedal assist is the most widespread system and seems to be becoming the most popular. The pedal assist system engages the electric motor only to help the pedals to give power. Most pedal assist kits and bicycles offer the user different levels of assistance by the electric motor. Pedal assist systems offer a smoother transition from traditional pedal-only bicycles to pure acceleration bicycles, which is indicative of their popularity. Users can still feel the benefits of reaching their destination with their own pedal power, with a little extra help. In addition, most systems are designed with a removable battery pack for easy charging, and the actual motor is located either in one of the wheel hubs or in direct connection with the drive system.<\/p>\n\n\n

The growing electric bicycle market influences all aspects of cycling. E-bike options are increasing as major bicycle manufacturers, such as Trek and Giant, enter the e-bike market. For many, electric bicycles offer the opportunity to have fun, commute to work and visit new places. Not everyone is an athlete and many live in places where geography does not lend itself easily to cycling. Electric bicycles have the potential to open up recreational and utilitarian cycling to a much larger population, such as a person who dreams of commuting to work, but who simply does not have the physical fitness or has too many hills to get there. Many parents who would like to take their children for a bike ride are intimidated by the idea of pulling a children\u2019s trailer by bike.<\/p>\n\n\n

I think we will see more and more people riding electric bikes around the world over time, because electric bikes are not a threat to traditional bikes. According to the reports, it is expected that by 2023, 34 million electric bicycles will be used in the metropolitan transport landscape. In Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, electric bicycles are widely used to preserve the ecological balance of the environment and avoid increased pollution of vehicle engines. Electric bicycles also support the desire to solve the congestion problems resulting from increasing urbanisation. In addition, electric bicycles, used in Western Europe and North America, are also an innovative trend, especially among the youngest. Electric bicycles are seen as a more practical alternative in terms of urban mobility. The increasing use of high-quality and affordable lithium-ion batteries is making a significant contribution to market trends in the promotion of electric bicycle models. The increase in the number of users also increases safety rules to protect cyclists in cities and other regions. As a result, concerns are rising sharply about simultaneous urban planning needs, such as public transit systems, traffic lanes and traffic lights, particularly for electric cyclists. In the United States, it would be increasingly useful to inform citizens about the importance of renewable energy for a cleaner and healthier environment, not only for the people of that generation, but also for future generations who will inherit the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n

Les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques gagnent en popularit\u00e9 et on dirait qu\u2019ils sont l\u00e0 pour rester. La popularit\u00e9 croissante des v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques leurs permet de se d\u00e9velopper tr\u00e8s rapidement dans nos villes modernes. M\u00eame le fixie hipster le plus d\u00e9vou\u00e9 ne peut nier le chiffre croissant des ventes mondiales de v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques. La Hollande, un pays d\u00e9j\u00e0 r\u00e9put\u00e9 pour son utilisation du v\u00e9lo comme moyen de transport principal, a connu une augmentation spectaculaire du nombre de v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques sur les routes. En 2009, les magasins de v\u00e9los n\u00e9erlandais ont vu les ventes de v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques d\u00e9passer celles des v\u00e9los standard. Afin de comprendre l\u2019avenir des v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques, il est important de comprendre les v\u00e9los eux-m\u00eames. En g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques se d\u00e9clinent en trois styles diff\u00e9rents l\u2019assistance au moteur, assistance aux p\u00e9dales et l\u2019acc\u00e9l\u00e9rateur \u00e9lectrique.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

L\u2019assistance au moteur est le m\u00e9lange des trois styles, elle permet \u00e0 l\u2019utilisateur d\u2019engager le moteur pour donner plus de puissance \u00e0 la p\u00e9dale, d\u2019acc\u00e9l\u00e9rer sans p\u00e9daler, de d\u00e9sengager le moteur et de rouler uniquement avec la puissance des jambes. L\u2019assistance par p\u00e9dale est le syst\u00e8me le plus r\u00e9pandu et semble devenir le plus populaire. Le syst\u00e8me d\u2019assistance de la p\u00e9dale n\u2019engage le moteur \u00e9lectrique que pour aider le p\u00e9dalier \u00e0 donner de la puissance. La plupart des kits d\u2019assistance \u00e0 la p\u00e9dale et des v\u00e9los offrent \u00e0 l\u2019utilisateur diff\u00e9rents niveaux d\u2019assistance par le moteur \u00e9lectrique. Les syst\u00e8mes d\u2019assistance aux p\u00e9dales offrent une transition plus fluide entre les v\u00e9los traditionnels \u00e0 p\u00e9dales uniquement et les v\u00e9los \u00e0 acc\u00e9l\u00e9ration pure, ce qui est r\u00e9v\u00e9lateur de leur popularit\u00e9. Les utilisateurs peuvent toujours sentir les avantages d\u2019atteindre leur destination avec leur propre puissance de p\u00e9dale, avec un peu d\u2019aide suppl\u00e9mentaire. De plus, la plupart des syst\u00e8mes sont con\u00e7us avec un bloc batterie amovible pour une charge facile, et le moteur r\u00e9el se trouve soit dans l\u2019un des moyeux de la roue, soit en liaison direct avec le syst\u00e8me d\u2019entra\u00eenement.<\/p>\n\n\n

Le march\u00e9 en croissance du v\u00e9lo \u00e9lectrique influencent tous les aspects du cyclisme. Les options de v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques sont de plus en plus nombreuses \u00e0 mesure que de grands fabricants de v\u00e9los, tels que Trek et Giant, entrent sur le march\u00e9 des v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques. Pour beaucoup, les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques offrent la possibilit\u00e9 de se divertir, faire la navette entre la maison et le travail, et de visiter des nouveaux lieux. Tout le monde n\u2019est pas un athl\u00e8te et beaucoup vivent dans des endroits o\u00f9 la g\u00e9ographie ne se pr\u00eate pas facilement \u00e0 la pratique du v\u00e9lo. Les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques ont le potentiel d\u2019ouvrir le cyclisme r\u00e9cr\u00e9atif et utilitaire \u00e0 une population consid\u00e9rablement plus importante, telle qu\u2019une personne qui r\u00eave de faire la navette pour aller au travail, mais qui n\u2019a tout simplement pas la forme physique ou qui a trop de collines pour s\u2019y rendre. De nombreux parents qui aimeraient emmener leurs enfants faire une balade \u00e0 v\u00e9lo sont intimid\u00e9s par l\u2019id\u00e9e de tirer une remorque pour enfants \u00e0 v\u00e9lo.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Je pense que nous verrons de plus en plus de personnes faire du v\u00e9lo \u00e9lectrique dans le monde avec le temps, car les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques ne sont pas une menace pour le v\u00e9lo traditionnel. Selon les rapports, on pr\u00e9voit que d\u2019ici 2023, 34 millions de v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques seront utilis\u00e9s dans le paysage des transports m\u00e9tropolitains. En Europe et dans la r\u00e9gion Asie-Pacifique, les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques sont en effet largement utilis\u00e9s pour pr\u00e9server l\u2019\u00e9quilibre \u00e9cologique de l\u2019environnement et \u00e9viter une pollution accrue des moteurs de v\u00e9hicules. Les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques soutiennent \u00e9galement le d\u00e9sir de r\u00e9soudre les probl\u00e8mes de congestion r\u00e9sultant de l\u2019urbanisation croissante. En outre, les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques, utilis\u00e9s en Europe occidentale et en Am\u00e9rique du Nord, constituent \u00e9galement une tendance innovante, en particulier chez les plus jeunes. Les v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques sont per\u00e7us comme une alternative plus pratique en termes de mobilit\u00e9 urbaine. L\u2019utilisation croissante de batteries lithium-ion de qualit\u00e9 sup\u00e9rieure et abordables contribue de mani\u00e8re significative aux tendances du march\u00e9 en mati\u00e8re de promotion des mod\u00e8les de v\u00e9los \u00e9lectriques. L\u2019augmentation du nombre d\u2019usagers augmente \u00e9galement les r\u00e8gles de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 pour prot\u00e9ger les cyclistes dans les villes et autres r\u00e9gions. Ainsi, les pr\u00e9occupations sont en forte hausse concernant les besoins simultan\u00e9s en mati\u00e8re de planification urbaine, tels que les syst\u00e8mes de transport en commun, les voies de circulation et les feux, en particulier pour les cyclistes \u00e9lectriques. Aux \u00c9tats-Unis, il serait de plus en plus utile d\u2019informer les citoyens sur l\u2019importance des \u00e9nergies renouvelables pour un environnement plus propre et plus saine, non seulement pour les habitants de cette g\u00e9n\u00e9ration, mais \u00e9galement pour les g\u00e9n\u00e9rations futures qui h\u00e9riteront de la terre.<\/p>\n\n\n
