NORMAL CYCLE CONVERTED INTO E-CYCLE

AIM

To Make Normal Cycle Converted Into E Cycle.

CONSTRUCTION

Most Electric bikes work a different way. they have compact electric

motors built into the hub of the back or front wheel. take a look at the hub of

an electric bike and probably you'll see it's much fatter and bulkier than on a

normal bike.
WORKING
An e-bike is a bicycle with electric motor to help you along. You ride it much like you ride a
normal bicycle, but with less effort. E-bikes come in many styles, from commuter bikes to full-
suspension mountain bikes and everything in between. Our focus is on urban and cargo bikes, used
for commuting, transport, or pleasure. To that end, we stock bikes that have a focus on quality, are
beautiful to look at, and will last a long time.
An e-bike motor works by automatically switching on the (quiet) motor when you pedal. There
are two different types of motor: motors that are in the crank and motors that are in your rear hub.
Both types have their pros and cons - but in recent years Mid drive systems have proven to generally
be the better option. Below you can read a brief comparison of the two, but for a more in depth
comparison read the FAQ on this topic here.
As a rule, crank motors provide a more authentic bicycle experience. This is because the
motor senses how much power you are putting into the pedals (using a torque sensor), and responds
proportionally (that is, the harder you pedal, the more the motor helps you). This makes you feel like
you have extra strong legs! Crank motors tend to be more responsive than wheel hub motors, and
allow the bicycle to roll more freely without the additional drag of a motor in the hub. We stock several
e-bike models with crank motors made by Bosch and Shimano.
Wheel hub motors have been around for longer and offer a simpler design. Most wheel hub
motors do not sense how much power you are making with your legs, so they will generally be either
‘on’ or ‘off’. Due to the placement of the motor in the rear wheel they also make changing punctures
more difficult, and make the bike handle less like a regular bike due to less balanced weight
distribution. Due to these and other reasons, we no longer stock hub based electric systems, except
for one exeption which is the wonderful Brompton Electric bike.

APPLICATION
The worldwide demand for electric bikes (e-bikes) is growing as consumers see e-
bikes as an eco-friendly solution to long commutes and rising fuel prices. An e-bike is a
bicycle with an integrated electric motor, a battery, and a controller that assists with increased
propulsion. New designs — which accommodate shorter recharging times, lighter weights,
and higher battery capacity for longer riding ranges — create the need for smaller, more
energy-efficient power solutions.

ADVANTAGES
No fuel required so you save money on gas.
Environmental friendly as they do not emit pollutants. ...
Lower maintenance due to an efficient electric motor. ...
Better Performance.

CONCLUSIONS
The issues associated with electric bicycles may be addressed by custom-
designed drives that are most efficient over a given operating cycle. These include city
bicycles, hill bicycles, distance bicycles, and speedy bicycles.
The results of the studies listed here can serve as a platform to improve electric
bicycle performance if new drive systems are designed around key parameters
that will result in improvement of the system performance. Furthermore, they can be used for
comparison of existing drives in a systematical, comprehensive and technical way.
