FAQ About Electric Bikes
What is an electric bike?
An electric bike, or e-bike, is a bicycle with an integrated motor and battery that assist the rider while pedaling. It makes riding easier on hills and over long distances and can usually be used in pedal-assist or throttle mode depending on local laws.
How fast can an electric bike go?
Most e-bikes in the U.S. fall under three classes: Class 1 and 2 models assist or throttle up to about 20–25 mph, while Class 3 models allow pedal-assist speeds up to 28 mph. These limits keep them safe and legal for road use.
Do you need a license to ride an electric bike?
In most states, a license or registration is not required for Class 1 and 2 e-bikes, though helmets and age limits may apply. Class 3 bikes can have additional local restrictions.
How far can an electric bike go on one charge?
Range depends on battery capacity, terrain, rider weight, and assist level. Typical e-bikes travel between 25 and 90 miles per charge under normal conditions.
How long does it take to charge an e-bike battery?
Charging time usually falls between 5 and 7 hours from empty to full. Higher-capacity batteries may take longer, while partial top-ups can extend battery life.
Are electric bikes street legal?
Yes. E-bikes that meet Class 1–3 definitions are allowed on most roads and bike paths in the United States, though individual states may regulate top speed or where throttles can be used.
Can you ride an electric bike in the rain?
Most electric bikes are water-resistant rather than fully waterproof. Riding in light rain or through small puddles is fine, but it’s best to avoid heavy storms or submerging the motor and battery.
How long does an e-bike battery last before replacement?
With proper care, lithium-ion batteries typically last 2 to 5 years or about 800 charge cycles before capacity begins to decline.
Are electric bikes safe for teenagers?
Yes, when matched to the rider’s size and speed limits. Many youth-oriented models have reduced top speeds and stable geometry to make learning safer.
How much does an electric bike cost?
Prices range widely depending on materials, motor power, and battery size, usually between $700 and $2,000 for quality mid-range models.
How heavy is an electric bike?
E-bikes weigh more than regular bicycles because of the motor and battery, typically between 55 and 90 pounds depending on frame type and features.
Do electric bikes need to be registered or insured?
For Class 1 and 2 models, registration and insurance are generally not required in the U.S. Only modified or high-speed conversions may need additional paperwork.


“Great bike for my 13 year olds! Arrived very quickly and was easy to assemble (the kids built it themselves). It’s been fun and safe to ride to school and around town.”
