Factors Affecting The Lifespan Of E-bikes
The biggest concern people have with e-bikes is how long the e-bike will last. Generally speaking, the service life of an e-bike is three to five years, and the factors affecting the life are mainly the following aspects.
1. Battery and motor. The battery is the source of electricity. In general, keeping a battery away from extremely cold weather conditions can extend its overall lifespan and efficiency. Motors are generally more durable than many other components. One of the best ways to ensure that your e-bike motor will last for many years is to avoid contact with bodies of water.
2. Brakes and tires. Brakes are one of the most important parts of an e-bike and can last a long time, depending on many factors. A thorough inspection every few months is recommended. The tire is the only contact part between the e-bike and the ground. With the right speed, clean terrain, and a good PSI setting, tires will last the longest.
