Watts, amps, volts ... What's that?
When buying an electric bike is worth paying attention to the technical specifications. To summarize, and broadly watts is the power that enables us to reach a certain speed. The Volt determine acceleration. And the amps, autonomy or amount of kilometers we can do with our bicycle. Thus, a battery of 24 volts will have less acceleration than 36 and less will be advisable for strong gains. While a battery of 36 volts but only 8 amps will have a range a little fairer.
As for power, it is not necessary to break your head too. All assisted pedaling bikes are limited to 250 watts. If you exceed this level of power, become mopeds with which the owner is obliged to pass the MOT and all the obligations that entails owning a vehicle more power.
What are electric bicycles are less than 250 watts. Usually one ultraplegables models in which the highest priority is the size and weight, and power becomes a secondary value.
