Can you pedal a Jetson electric bike?
With cadence-based pedal assistance, which all Jetson e-bikes have, the motor delivers regular boosts of power regardless of how hard or fast you are pedaling. Any pedaling at all will activate pedal assistance, so in that way the pedal movement functions like an “on/off” switch. Motor Endurance: The electric motor in your Jetson Bike is also built to last, with typical motors enduring anywhere from 3,000 to 10,000 miles.Motor Endurance: The electric motor in your Jetson Bike is also built to last, with typical motors enduring anywhere from 3,000 to 10,000 miles. Regularly servicing your e-bike and keeping its firmware up to date can prevent excessive wear on the motor and help maintain its longevity.
How far can a Jetson e-bike go on a full charge?
Response from Jetson: The Bolt Pro can go up to 30 miles on a full battery using pedal assist, or up to 15 miles on a full battery using the twist throttle! Keep making moves! Response from Jetson: The Bolt Pro can go up to 15. Happy riding and keep moving!
Do electric bikes charge while you pedal?
Pedaling on an e-bike powers your movement; the motor assists your propulsion but does not operate as a generator during pedaling. Converting pedaling energy into electrical energy would make pedaling harder and is highly inefficient, which is why e-bikes do not recharge their batteries through pedaling. Many e-bikes use a Pedal Assist System (PAS) that can impose a speed limit based on your pedaling effort. By adjusting or disabling this system, you can remove the speed cap and allow the bike to run on full electric power.E-bike riders may often be older and inexperienced cyclists. This combination of speed and potential physical limitations, along with the heavier weight of e-bikes, increases crash and injury risk.Riding an e-bicycle means burning many calories but not to the point of exhaustion; it’ll take half your energy and has a calorie burn rate similar to what you would get from walking.A common problem with e-bikes is where the electric assistance feels like it isn’t catching properly, is pulsating or cuts in and out randomly. This is to do with the electric signals to the wheels, so pedal assist troubleshooting is important.The good news is that you won’t be stranded – you can keep moving by just pedaling. E-bikes work just like normal bikes when the battery is dead or removed. Your legs provide all the power, and the bike’s gears still help you manage different terrains and slopes.
