With recent exorbitant gas prices, a churning energy crisis, and business incentives pointing
in every direction, many are looking for alternatives across the board.
Alternative energy in the form of electric and alternative transport in the form of powered
bikes and other small, motored vehicles are vital to this transition.
In today's video, we'll take an in-depth look at an affordable electric bike that is perfect
for taking out on the town.
Let's get to it!

Thank you for watching, Mind's Eye Design!
Since 2011, Addmotor has been, as they say, designing, refining, tuning, and producing
electric bikes.
What is their goal?
To make the best e-bikes available.
And through their years of working, they have established a tight-knit community of like-minded riders.
However significant their success though, they aren't finished, and they are constantly
creating new models to showcase on their lineup.
We'll cover one such model in this video; the E43 Electric City Bike!
The first thing you'll notice about the E43 is the sleek low-step polygon frame that offers
both strength and safety and comes in your choice of four colors cyan, rose gold, pearl
white, and Neptune blue.
Speaking of safety, let's talk about those lights.
They were designed with safety in mind, and the headlights supply up to forty lumens of
brightness as well as an effect of one hundred eighty degrees which is viewable by up to
six hundred and sixty-five feet.
The taillights act like your cars, offering turning signals and brake lights.
The E43 also comes equipped with a horn.
An LCD screen in the center of the handlebars allows you to monitor various stats such as
battery life, speed, the miles you've traveled on any given trip, et cetera.
It also allows you to interact with the turn signal lights and the 7-step pedal assistance.
The company has also designed a central controller that acts as the hub for all the electronics
aboard this bike, simplifying the whole system for a more energy-efficient ride and reducing wear and tear.
The taillight is attached to the rear rack, which can haul up to fifty-five pounds of
cargo, so you can take it for a grocery trip if you bring along a bag you feel comfortable
strapping to it.
Although designed for paved roads, the twenty-six-inch Kenda tires are capable of handling a variety
of terrain as well as being anti-slip and durable.
Let's talk about power.
The E43 comes equipped with the next generation EB 2.0 battery pack with twenty amp hours
of energy, pushing this city stroller to around one hundred and twenty-five miles per charge.
With the max pedal-assist mode of seven, you can expect speeds of up to twenty miles per
hour with around seventy miles of range.
Still, you could squeeze out more depending on terrain and rider weight.
The new battery technology offers greater control over the battery's temperature and
greater protection for the safety of the battery, so you don't have to worry as much about the lifeblood
of your machine.
To pair with its battery, Addmotor combines it with a five hundred watt brushless hub motor.
Which is more resistant to heat, dissipates heat better, and displays less noise than previously.
It also has a longer life expectancy and can peak out at a little under one thousand watts.
In terms of stopping power, this ebike has a hydraulic disc brake which effectively reduces
the kinetic energy you've built up from riding and increases braking force.
Addmotor also offers a variety of accessories to pair with your ebike.
Such as a mounted phone holder, attachable mirrors, and additional battery packs if you
want to stretch out that range.
If you're interested in an E43 Electric City Bike for yourself, Addmotor is letting them
go for around one thousand five hundred dollars.
The company also offers a suite of bikes if you want to check those out, from cargo bikes
to cruisers to all-terrain and more.
