When many of us were first learning to ride, we might have been given a gentle push to jump-start our momentum. In many ways, thatā€™s what the motor on an electric bike can do for you today, except that the boost it provides sustains for as long as you continue to pedal.
Ā 
While it does differ from riding a regular bike, most e-bike newbies get the hang of it quickly. Typically, it only takes one test ride for the bodyā€™s muscle memory to adapt to the feel of a pedal-assist machine.
Ā 

Keep the following tips in mind when you first start riding an e-bike:

Ā 
1ļ¼‰Brake earlier because e-bikes are heavier (and faster). Pedal-assist power overcomes the sluggishness that a heavier bike might have, but a fast-moving weighty mass also requires an attentive brake hand. E-bikes come with robust brake systems to help, but you still have to be on top of your riding game.
Ā 
2ļ¼‰Ride with a faster cadence. An e-bike is most efficient when pedaled at a faster cadence than is typically used on a regular bike, especially when climbing hills. Itā€™s not that you canā€™t have a lower cadence, itā€™s just that your e-bike rides more smoothly and gets better battery life if you spin the pedals faster. So get used to using lower gears.

Safety Check List before riding
