The Key to Promoting Sustainability - Electric Bikes

The frequency of extreme weather has increased awareness of the importance of sustainable development. Recyclable use, energy saving, and emission reduction have become the factors considered by the customers purchasing products and account for a large proportion. In addition to the daily necessities purchased in daily life, transportation has become the main source of carbon emissions in many regions of the world.

According to the data, transportation is the largest part of the UK's carbon emissions, accounting for about 1/4 of the proportion. And this is mainly from the cars burning petrol and diesel, especially automobiles. The rate has only silghtly declined since 1990. Therefore, it is urgent to promote traffic reform, which is of great significance to achieving the goal of sustainable development. This also makes electric bicycles a favorable product for travel for many people. Electric energy supply has also become a major trend in future transportation development. If you are interested in electric bicycles, then this article will take you to know the well-known electric bicycle brand Cyrusher and provide inspiration for your car selection.  

Are electric bicycles really environmentally friendly? 

This is a question that many people will have when purchasing an electric bicycle. Of course, in the process of producing an electric bicycle, many production procedures will inevitably pollute the social environment. But from the completion of assembly, it is not an exaggeration to say that the impact of electric bicycles on the environment is environmentally friendly compared to cars.

As the name suggests, electric bicycles rely on electric energy for energy supply. Compared with non-renewable heavy fossil fuel resources, renewable electric energy has become the direction of future transformation. The most commonly used type of battery for electric bicycles is the lithium-ion battery. According to statistics, under normal use, the battery of an electric bicycle can achieve an average of about 400 cycles, depending on the rider's usage and battery quality. Therefore, the general electric bicycle can guarantee that you will not have the battery discarded within two years, which will cause harm to the environment. Electric bicycles powered by electricity will not produce exhaust fumes like cars and truly achieve no tailpipe emissions. This coincides with the goal of achieving green travel.

Electric bicycles and electric cars

Of course, electric vehicles that rely on electric energy are also a very suitable choice in the implementation of green travel. So which one is more valuable to buy?

Electric vehicles certainly have their specific advantages, such as:

1. More comfortable to drive

2. The riding rangeis longer, which can realize long-distance travel

3. Can drive faster

4. Larger loading capacity

But it also has its disadvantages compared to electric bicycles, such as:

1. Lack of exercise

2. Easy to be restricted by road traffic

3. High maintenance cost

Compared with the previous charging economic advantages, electric vehicles have been greatly weakened. According to a survey by British car service company RAC Charge Watch, the electricity price of electric vehicle charging piles in the UK has increased by 42%, and the average charging cost of users using chargers has also increased by 25%. The average cost required to quickly recharge to 80% with a 64 kWh battery is about £32. For drivers who rely on public charging posts, the average cost per mile is already around 18p, compared with around 19p for a regular petrol car. So this economic gap is narrowing between the cost of charging an electric vehicle versus the cost of gasoline. Of course, if you choose to charge at home which is a cheaper electric price, it will save almost half of the cost.

The charging and energy storage method of electric bicycles will be more economical due to its smaller energy storage capacity. Generally speaking, a full charge only needs about 15p (it varies according to the electricity price and battery capacity in different regions).

And this is just a price comparison in terms of charging, if you take into account the insurance and maintenance costs of the car, then the cost will be more.

The typical cost of maintaining an electric car can range from a few thousand pounds. For an e-bike, the cost of maintenance may be for two tyres, chain maintenance, or maintenance of components such as brakes, etc. The combined cost is estimated at a few hundred pounds, which is a very cost-effective option compared to an electric car.

Admittedly, electric cars are also a major transport option for green travel. Since they drive and travel in the same way as conventional fuel cars, they are a more environmentally friendly option for many people who travel long distances, regardless of the financial cost. But if it's just a way of getting around daily, then it's even more recommended that you buy an electric bike, which can be a good choice both in terms of financial cost and energy saving.

The advantages of electric bicycles have become familiar to everyone, and they can become a traffic weapon for commuting and avoiding traffic congestion. Its unique pedal assist mode also helps you start a more effective exercise program in conjunction with your workout. Provides a more efficient speed than ordinary bicycles to help you reach your destination more efficiently, etc.
