Electric Bicycles - A Guide to Design and Use

For much of the world, bicycles are a transportation mainstay. Electric bicycles - powered by a rechargeable battery pack - are proven to deliver the highest possible energy efficiency, even compared to pedal bikes. A transportation alternative to fossil fuels, electric bicycles are fast catching on, in part because they don't require factory assembly. End-users can easily construct them with available components.

The text reveals important techniques, data, and examples that allow readers to judge various propulsion setups - used in both home- and factory-made bikes - and estimate speed and travel distance for each. Numerous charts clearly present the costs, benefits, and trade-offs between both commercial and user-converted models.

Key features include:
- Estimating motor-performance for wind, hill, and cruising power requirements
- Estimating battery capacity and a thorough description of battery charging
- Motor and motor-control options
- Evaluating motor-to-wheel coupling options
- Placement of propulsion components
- Configurations and performance
- How systems-engineering techniques can produce electric-bicycle designs that have long travel range and low life-cycle cost
- Testing
- Developments to watch

A comprehensive resource for harnessing innovation, "Electric Bicycles" is the definitive practical guide to taking full advantage of this exciting alternative energy technology.

E-MTB - Wartung, Pflege & Reparatur

Every electric bike needs maintenance. An e-MTB is a highly technical piece of sports equipment with complex mechanics and electronics. To keep an electric mountain bike in top shape, the biker needs additional know-how about technology, drive and batteries. Adjusting the MTB gears, setting the shock absorber and suspension fork: Regular maintenance reduces wear and tear and guarantees flawless function and a longer mileage for your e-mountain bike.

The specialist authors Jochen Donner and Daniel Simon show that a well-maintained battery, perfectly adjusted and carefully lubricated bicycle technology, timely replacement of wearing parts and the critical inspection of the drive, brake and lighting system as well as re-centering the wheels are not magic.
The book covers the seating position, motor, gears, brakes, suspension and wheels.

The instructions in this book will significantly extend the life of your bike:
- How-to-do for beginners and advanced mountain bikers
- Step-by-step illustrations make maintenance and care easier
- Workshop basics and maintenance plans.
