E-Bikes – The future of Urban Mobility

During peak hours in congested cities, rather than sitting in a car or bus, e-bikes can provide a much cheaper and faster way of getting to and  from work. The majority of trips people take are less than 10km and well within e-bike range. E-biking enables riders to cover a lot more ground in less time and “flatten hills” for considerably greater ease on challenging terrain.

WE ARE REGISTERED FOR THE CYCLE TO WORK SCHEME.

There is also a massive Government subsidy available off the purchase of your first Lectro e-bike through the Cycle to Work scheme. You may be eligible for a reduction of up to €480 on the initial cost of your electric bike.

There is the added bonus to the environment that e-bikes are effectively carbon neutral and don’t emit CO2, NOx or any of the other dirty particles associated with cars and public transport in cities. With 2.5 million e-bikes sold in the EU alone last year, e-bikes are already helping to alleviate transportation and pollution woes as a zero-carbon mobility option across Northern European cities.

E-biking as a daily activity also promotes a multitude of benefits to the health and mental wellbeing of the cyclist. A huge advantage offered by e-biking over other forms of exercise is that e-bikes provide low impact exercise, making them a viable option for those of all ages and fitness levels, even individuals with injuries.
