When it comes to electric bikes, there are two main riding modes: throttle and pedal assist. Each mode offers a unique experience, and the best one for you depends on your needs and preferences.
- Throttle Mode: In throttle mode, the e-bike’s motor is engaged by a twist or thumb throttle, similar to a motorcycle. This allows you to ride without pedaling, providing a boost of power whenever you need it.
- Pedal Assist Mode: Pedal assist mode, on the other hand, only engages the motor when you pedal. The motor provides assistance based on the level you choose, making pedaling easier and less strenuous.
Which Mode is Best for You?
Both throttle and pedal assist provide extra power to help you ride with ease, offering quick bursts of speed and the ability to tackle hills or longer distances. Throttle mode gives an additional boost, which, while helpful, drains the battery faster and reduces your range. On the other hand, pedal assist is more advantageous as it gives you the extra power you need while conserving the battery’s charge, allowing you to ride longer and go farther.
