Electric Bikes in Melbourne, Australia

What’s in Yours? Ladies and Gentlemen: The Electric Bike with Basket

There is something about a bicycle that makes it stay relevant even as technology races ahead. Once humble bike was overtaken by the motorbike, but then the world somehow grew up and the petrol engine was exposed as harmful to the environment. So, pedal power came back to the fore and the world’s leg muscles got a good collective workout. But as much as people in general like to stay fit, there is a lot to be said for conserving our energy at times.

Cue the electric bike, with a bit of pedalling as and when, but most of the essential work is done by the motor. For sheer convenience, there is nothing like getting out there with the wind in your hair and feeling like you’re part of the world rather than some goon blasting through it by the thoughtless power of the internal combustion engine.

But as life is full of picking things up and dropping them off, how about some carrying capacity? Suddenly the very 21st-century mode of transport went a bit retro, and we were introduced to the electric bike with front basket.

The E-Bike With a Basket Gets Cool

At first glance, an e-bike with basket may seem a bit Little Red Riding Hood, but come on, guys, aren’t we past all that macho stuff by now? If you want to take your long-range electric bicycle and fill the basket with beer and biltong, you can. Get out there and have a picnic your way. You can take a change of clothes too, or some weights so your upper body doesn’t miss out on the action. Everything is getting smaller these days except you and your muscles, so it’s amazing what you can take on an electric bike with a front basket.

As for the more enlightened who don’t need to have this pointed out to them, whether you are bound for the office, the university library or various places around town, having your two-wheeled Tardis as a way of getting around means you can do pretty much everything. You may be laden with fruit and vegetables, tofu and quinoa or rump steaks and spuds plus a six pack for you-know-who. Or you may be delivering medicines for an elderly relative who would love to have anvelectric bike with basket but is unfortunately not able to right now.

More Control: Why Some Riders Like an Electric Bike with Throttle in Australia

A criticism sometimes heard about electric bikes is that they are one-paced. If the motor is doing most of the propulsion, can it give you that quick burst of energy that you want when a situation arises that you need to get out of? That is not to say people are looking for reckless speed. What electric cyclists want with throttles on e-bikes is the ability to get out of trouble, not into it.

Any road user, whether using an e-bike with a throttle in Australia or a more conventional mode of transport, knows that situations arise when you least expect them. That’s because it is not just you out there: everyone else is going about their business too. People are starting and stopping, emerging from nowhere and turning off the road when they suddenly realise this is the route they need to take. You’ve got to be alert at all times - and not just aware of new circumstances but able to respond to them. There is a need for an electric bike with throttle in Australia because the Australian e-biker is out there in the thick of it and needs the ability to respond. A throttle can give you the split-second stab of motion you need. Then everything calms down again, and you can go on your way unharmed.

But Throttles on E-bikes are not for Everyone

If you are a very conservative road user of the type known as “defensive”, then you may feel having an e-bike with throttle in Australia is missing the point – and good for you, but we ‘re sure you can see why some others feel differently. The beauty of lithium bikes is the tranquillity they bring to traffic. If everyone was on an e-bike the world would be quieter and safer – but that is not the case, so some people like to have a bit more flexibility, just a touch of oomph when they need it.

The High Performance 750 watt E-Bike

Of all the characteristics an e-bike might have, high performance is probably the least spoken about. E-bikes are all about ecological awareness, economic operation and being a good citizen - that is the perceived wisdom. And those things are certainly true, but that is not to say there is no fun to be had here: a 750w electric bicycle brings an element of high performance into the equation.

For an e-bike, 750 watts is a lot of power. Combined with a robust frame and wheels, plus chunky tyres, a 750 watt e-bike gives you the chance to have a bit of fun on more challenging terrain. Of course, the main function of this type of bike is to get you from A to B with minimal impact on the environment in terms of carbon emissions, but if you like having the wind in your hair and being close to nature, you can have a bit of off-roading to add some sport to your life.

E-Bike - 750 Watt: If Your Life is Not All Smooth Roads and Plain Sailing…

Perhaps you just don’t live in a flat-tarmac area where the ecological-aware city cyclists breeze around the place in majestic comfort thanks to their long range e-bikes. Maybe your area is a bit more rugged. That doesn’t mean you can’t do the majestic comfort thing too. You just need a 750 watt e-bike, a beast that’s up to the job. Look through our range of options and you will find something that suits your circumstances. And if it’s not just for practical purposes, but more a question of liking robust things designed for more than pootling around to the shops and back, we’ve got just the thing for you.

The King 750 has a 45v/750w motor. It’s a high-torque, high-efficiency design with big, tough tyres and it can do 45kph. Looked at another way, with its no-nonsense beefy battery it can take you 80 kilometres in purely electric mode or up to 100 kms on a single charge if you do a bit of pedalling to help out.

These are not the sorts of characteristics for which e-bikes are famous but given a bit of a different attitude in the engineering department, they can give e-biking a whole new dimension. Does it sound like an Olympic event or a Grand Prix-type race series could be on the horizon? You never know. They’ve got electric racing cars, electric buses and trucks, so the technology is there.
