Two wheels are better than four, and there’s now studies to prove it. If you’re looking to make a change in your daily commute or be more environmentally friendly, one of the easiest and healthiest ways is to make the switch from car to bicycle.
If your intention is to replace your bicycle with a car entirely, an electric bike is the way of the future to optimize on speed, distance and affordability.
The Benefit of E-Bikes Over Electric Cars on Health and Environment
When it comes to environmental impact and city traffic, studies have shown that electric bikes actually beat out electric cars.
Over time, the rise in electric cars will continue to increase the number of cars on the road, furthering urban congestion and sedentary lifestyles of city dwellers.
While electric cars certainly have clear environmental benefits over gas-powered cars, they don’t actually improve the quality of life of the driver and don’t address the issue of car dependency in urban environments.
In cities around the world, sustainable modes of transportation are encouraged — walking, cycling and public transportation.
Electric bicycles specifically are an active form of transportation, decreasing traffic and increasing physical activity of everyday commuters.

Why Choose An Electric Bike?
Easily Navigate Through Traffic:
Know the time it will take you to get from point A to point B without worrying about delayed trains and/or traffic jams.
On an electric bike, you can dodge through traffic or easily traverse along city bike paths. With pedal-assist ranging from 20mph-28 mph, you’ll speed up the journey and find faster routes to both traditional bikes or crowded streets.
Invest and Save:
The price point of buying an electric bicycle over other modes of transportation — moped, subway, busy or car — can save you big in the long run.
By choosing to travel by electric bicycles, you won’t have to worry much after the upfront cost about hidden fees, parking meters or monthly passes. Today, electric bikes cost a fraction of what their predecessors did.
Eco-Friendly Travel:
Cycling is one of the cleanest forms of transportation alongside walking or running.
energy efficient transportation is the way of the future if we actively seek to address combat climate change and improve the quality of life across the board.
Ditching your petrol-powered car in lieu of innovative e-bike has a huge impact on air pollution.
electric bikes actually emit 23 times less carbon per year to cars, significantly reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
Enjoy the ride:
Almost anyone can drive or be a passenger in a car, but electric bicycles are an easy way to get a great workout and enjoy an outdoor commute.
Unlike traditional cycling, riders don’t have to worry about working up a sweat on an electric bike, can easily climb hills and keep fitness levels up.
Plus, beyond the practical reasons — riding an e-bike is fun!
More cyclists are opting for motor-powered biking for an extra oomph on rides. The real advantages are being able to climb steep hills, manage wind and other terrain and ride for a longer range. Plus, they offer similar health and environmental benefits of traditional bicycles. While there are a wide range of benefits to buying an electric bike, there’s a few key areas to consider before you buy. WeightDue to the motor and battery, electric bikes are much heavier than standard road bikes. […]
If you are shopping around for an e-bike, you probably have a list of requirements for what you want on your bike. One thing that people often overlook is the practicality of the frame. If you live in a small apartment or are commuting through a city, you might prefer a folding frame instead of a fixed frame. Our ‘Tripster’ bike has a folding frame, making it easy to grab and take with you anywhere. […]
If you’re thinking of buying an electric bike, you’ve probably spent hours researching them online. An e-bike is an investment that you want to take care of and make sure it is properly maintained. As an electric bike has a motor and battery, you might wonder if it needs servicing.
Electric Bike Maintenance
You need to take your e-bike for regular maintenance every few months to a bike shop that specializes in electric bikes. If you use your e-bike to commute to work or for daily errands, you’ll want to take it into the shop more frequently. […]

Nice bike for the price – arrived fast (2 days) with easy assembly. I’ve put 125 miles on the bike and typically ride about 15 miles on flat terrain at 20mph. I’ve taken it for a 30 mile ride without any problems. Charging the battery for 2.5 hours, the battery always still has power at the end of the ride. I’d recommend this product!
Okay, this bike is crazy good. Worth every cent! If you like mountain bike riding, then this is your bike.

So, far my husband and I are both pleased with our Tripster. We’re both learning the in’s and out’s of riding an e-bike. This year, we’re looking forward to a lot of rides. Thank you for a fantastic product.

I use this bike a lot for off roading. Mountain trails, gravel trails, jumping off rocks etc. The bike isn’t too bad and can handle itself for an electrical bike.

I brought it cause I thought it looked cool but I didn’t think other people would think the same cause the amount of compliments I get is incredible. I always tell them where to get it and give them more info about the bike.
The bike is totally weatherproof – you can ride it in the rain, snow, etc. It definitely makes for a very fast ride that’s effortless if you don’t want to sweat on your commute or taking it over mountain terrain. The bike is on the heavier side mostly because you can carry up to 300 lb or ride with two people. I charge it once or twice a week without any trouble.

So far great solid ride! It’s definitely tough and rugged for pretty much any type of terrain due to the thick tires and 750W engine. I use it to commute to work over a bridge that I can practically fly over.

Amazingly done Ridel. Handsome looking bike, the old-fashioned is to die for, the power on the bike is electrifying, the build of the bike is brawny. The Snugger is quite an extraordinary ebike. One of the most splendid ride to go on and has such a profound charm to it where it fascinates the viewers.

So, I brought the 500 watts model. great bike, doesn’t have too much power or range. Totally my fault should have gotten the 750 watts model.
I’ve been using this electric bike to commute for the past month. This bike is good for easy riding in cities – adjustable height for the seat/handlebars to ride in a comfortable position for a long period of time. It’s quite lightweight so can be picked up easily + good battery capacity. Highly recommend buying.

I’m a longtime rider and wanted a little assist, and found it with the EKO. I wasn’t expecting much given the price point vs other e-bikes, but I have been pleasantly surprised — the bike has high-quality components, is very fast, reliable, fun, and safe. Also super lightweight. In general, I’d say this is a great bike for city riders who are looking for a reliable way to commute with some power.
I bought this bike for my girlfriend and she absolutely loves it. It’s a super smooth ride and still quite feminine while having all the power of an electric bike. It’s the perfect bike for riding around the neighborhood or to the store…it has a rack on the back to store a bag or backpack if you are riding for a short day trip. Assembly was easy with the instructions RIDEL provides with shipment. Thank you!

The bike arrived on time and the assembly was easy and straightforward. I live near to the beach and I couldn’t be happier with this purchase! This was my first time using a pedal-assist bike and I feel comfortable / in control riding up to 20mph. I’d recommend this bike for riders in urban settings/ bike paths as its good quality for the price.

Cruzer is absolutely the perfect model for living in the city. I completely stopped relying on public transport since the purchase of my Cruzer bike. 5 stars and a thumb up!
