Myth 1: ‘E-bikes are only for athletes or fitness enthusiasts’

Fact: Not at all! Whether you're someone who hasn't ridden a bike in years or you're just looking for an easier way to get around, an e-bike is ideal for you. The extra power of the motor means you can go further without breaking a sweat, making an e-bike a great choice whatever your fitness level.

Myth 2: ‘E-bikes are too expensive’

Fact: Well, at first glance, e-bikes may seem a little more expensive than regular bikes. But think about the long term! You can save a lot of money on petrol, parking fees and even gym memberships. Plus, the price of e-bikes is dropping all the time, making them more affordable than ever.

Myth 3: ‘Riding an e-bike is cheating.’

Truth: Who's really counting the points? E-bikes are all about making riding easy and enjoyable for everyone. You still need to pedal, and you always get to choose how much help you want from the motor. It's like having a friend to give you a little boost when you need help.

Myth 4: ‘E-bikes are heavy and difficult to manoeuvre’

Fact: Modern e-bikes are designed to be very user-friendly. Many models are lightweight and easy to manoeuvre, so you'll soon feel like a pro.

Myth 5: ‘You can't get a good workout on an e-bike’

Truth: You absolutely can! Simply turn down or off the motor assist and you can drive the bike yourself. It's totally up to you and the type of workout you want.

Myth 6: ‘E-bikes are not safe’

Truth: Folks, safety comes first! E-bikes are just as safe as traditional bikes. The key is to wear a helmet, follow the rules of the road and stay alert, just like you would on any bike.

Myth 7: ‘E-bikes don't help the environment’

Fact: E-bikes are superstars when it comes to the environment. They don't burn any petrol and are rechargeable, often using clean energy. In addition, the more we ride e-bikes, the less traffic and pollution we experience.

Myth 8: ‘E-bikes are a pain to maintain.’

Fact: No, e-bikes are very low maintenance. Compared to a car, an e-bike has fewer parts to wear out and maintenance is usually as simple as keeping the battery charged and checking it occasionally.
