The lifespan of an electric city bike varies, but you can expect solid performance for quite a while. Bafang motors, known for their reliability, can keep ticking for 3 to 10 years — often outlasting other components. As for batteries, with proper care, they typically serve you well for 3 to 7 years, sometimes even longer. Overall, if you treat your e-bike right, it could be your faithful urban companion for anywhere from 3 to 10 years.
This Electric city bike is designed with urban speed limits in mind. This model will zip you along at a brisk 20 mph (ca. 32 km/h), which is the typical maximum for motor assistance. This speed strikes a nice balance between getting you places quickly and keeping things safe in busy city environments.
Charging times for city e-bike can vary, but you're usually looking at somewhere between 4 and 5 hours for a full charge.
For optimal battery health, it's a good idea to top up your e-bike's charge after each ride. This practice keeps your battery in its sweet spot, avoiding deep discharges that can shorten its lifespan. However, if you're not using it daily, aim to charge it at least once every few weeks to keep the battery happy.
When relying solely on the throttle without any pedaling, most e-bikes are designed to cap out at 20 mph (ca. 32 km/h) for safety reasons. The distance you can cover depends on factors like terrain and battery capacity, but typically, you're looking at a range of 20–40 miles on throttle alone. Remember, pedal-assist modes can extend your range significantly and allow speeds up to 28 mph (ca. 45 km/h).
