Why do electric bikes have gears and how do you use the gears on an electric bike? If you've asked these questions, then this is the video for you. Gears may seem superfluous when you have a throttle and pedal assist on your bike but gears are actually great for when you want to get more of a workout on your bike and really maximize your calorie burn. Gears allow you to tailor each bike ride or even each hill to your effort level. Going for a casual ride and don't want to do much work? Gears can help with that, but they can also help if you DO want put in more work but don't want to turn off pedal assist. Once you practice using your gears in combination with pedal assist, you'll quickly get a feel for what works for you but in this video we give you examples of what gears we use to tackle the same hill with 3 different effort levels.

Remember, each hill is different and there are so many different factors that come into play such as wind resistance plus your own energy levels and strength so be sure to experiment to get the most out of your bike rides!
