These bicycles have been designed as same any regular bicycles but are still much ahead of them. These electric bicycles are powered by an <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/electric-motor/"   rel="tag" >electric motor</a> which is fixed for pedaling and the rider doesn’t need to pedal. These bicycles are widely used in the countries like china and India where bicycle is still preferred <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/mode-of-transportation/"   rel="tag" >mode of transportation</a>.</p>
<p>Here are some of the secrets of Electric bicycles:</p>

Some of these <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/electric-bikes/"   rel="tag" >electric bikes</a> can be folded and pushed on their wheels if you wish to walk along and can also be accessed to the public transports.</p>
<p>? Healthy: Electric bicycles offer people who may not be in top physical shape the option of getting outside and riding a bike, without fear of having to go up a long hill or getting too tired on a hot day. Electric bicycles allow riders to pedal and/or use power, combining the two for healthy exercise without fear of overdoing it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div>
<p>Your bicycle's drivetrain is comprised of all of the parts that power the bicycle and make it go. Bike pedals move the cranks, which turn the bottom bracket and the chainrings, which drive the chain that spins the rear sprockets, turning the rear hub, which moves the wheel and propels the bicycle forward. The crisp movement of these parts and the ability to minimize effort while maximizing speed is the heart of cycling. It is essential that drivetrain be clean, true and well-maintained in order to more fully enjoy riding your bike. When one of these parts gets out of whack, the rest soon follow.</p>
<p>It is also important to get individual components that are compatible within the system (e.g. typically Campagnolo and Shimano parts are not inter-compatible). Many times the difference between 9- and 10-speed parts is enough to make them incompatible as well. The collective term for a complete bike drivetrain kit is 'group' or 'gruppo.' Multi-speed drivetrains are classified by the number of cogs in the rear cassette. A modern day 10-<a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/speed-bicycle/"   rel="tag" >speed bicycle</a> can have as many as 30 'possible gears,' with 10 in the rear and three in the front, but still have a 10-speed drivetrain.</p>
<p>Pedals <br />Your bike pedals are your power connection to your bicycle. As you pump your legs and turn your feet, you cause the cranks to turn. Proper pedal choice is important for comfort, control and safety on the bike. Many recreational and enthusiast cyclists prefer the adaptability that platform pedals offer. They allow you to ride in any type of shoe and give a sense of security to a novice rider who is cautious of locking the feet into clipless pedals. Many platform pedals can be adapted with a toe cage to give more control and power while retaining the sense of security associated with platforms.</p>
<p>Racers and more advanced riders often prefer 'clipless' pedals. These pedals are used in conjunction with matching cleats that are attached to special shoes. The cleats lock into place in the pedal, offering a secure attachment of rider to bicycle. Most cleats easily release the shoe by a simple twist of the ankle, and they are quite easy to use with some initial practice.</p>
<p>Cranks <br />The cranks connect the pedals to the bottom bracket and hold the front chainrings. They connect to the axis around which your feet spin and transmit your power to the bike. Cranksets come in many different lengths based upon <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/bicycle-frame/"   rel="tag" >bicycle frame</a> size and the rider's leg length. They are generally made out of aluminum, but some low-end cranks are made of steel, and some high-end cranks are made of carbon fiber. These cranksets are marketed to top-level racers and generally carry the appropriate price tag. Cranks attach to the bicycle at the bottom bracket. There are several types of cranks/bottom bracket interfaces, and it is important to know their differences.</p>
<p>Chainrings <br />Chainrings are the forward chain interface with the bicycle. They contain teeth that hold the chain and drive it forward. Chainrings come in a wide range of sizes, identified by the number of teeth and application. Typical mountain bikes use three chainrings; road bikes generally have two to three. Single-speed and fixed-gear bicycles use only one chainring. Chainrings are typically made of aluminum, with some being made of steel and a handful of boutique brands making them out of carbon fiber.</p>
<p>What makes a proper chainring is dependent upon many factors: number of teeth, single/double/triple configuration, 8/9/10/11 speed use and bolt circle diameter. Once all of those factors have been determined, you can choose the group level or brand that best suits your needs.</p>
<p>Bottom bracket <br />The bottom bracket is the cranks' interface with the bike. It contains bearings around which an axle rotates; this axle is connected to the cranks. Current bottom brackets come in varying interface types. Traditional bottom brackets have loose ball bearings with their accompanying cups and cones and an axle locked in place with locknuts, typically on the left side of the BB shell. More recent cartridge bottom brackets are built as one piece with cartridge bearings press-fit onto the axle and fit into the frame with 'cups' that thread into opposite sides of the shell.</p>
<p>Many bike parts companies have most recently been developing bottom brackets without an axle. The axle is built into the cranks and runs through bearings that are press-fit into cups that thread into the bottom bracket shell. The other end of the axle then attaches to the opposite crankarm. Different brands have different bearing sizes and only work with their respective cranks.</p>
<p>Bottom brackets come in many different interfaces developed by the different component manufacturers. Cup and cone BBs are generally 'square taper.' Cartridge bottom brackets are one of two versions of square taper (International Standard or Japanese Standard) or one of the many versions of splined BB developed by the several companies.</p>
<p>Another important aspect of bottom bracket compatibility is whether your bicycle has an Italian or English threaded bottom bracket. The shell diameter of an Italian bottom bracket is larger, threaded 36 mm x 24 tpi, and its threads are both normal (or right-handed). English bottom brackets are threaded 1.370-inch x 24tpi, with the right cup having a reverse thread and the left cup having a regular thread.</p>
<p>Chain <br />The chain connects the chainring to the rear sprocket, transmitting power from the rider to the rear wheel. Current bicycles use roller chains (with few exceptions) that are categorized by pitch and width. The chain's pitch is the distance from roller to roller and is typically 1/2 inch on modern bicycles. The width is measured between chain plates and is either 1/8 inch for derailleur-less bikes and 3/32 inch for multi-speed, derailed bikes.</p>
<p>Another specification of a <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/bicycle-chain/"   rel="tag" >bicycle chain</a> is based on outer width: the outside distance between chain-link plates. There are two main standards: Campagnolo and Shimano. Shimano uses the same width chain for all drive trains with eight or fewer gears in the rear cassette or freewheel and a different width each for its 9- and 10-speed groups. Campagnolo uses three widths presently: 9, 10 and 11. As the number of sprockets in the rear increase, the width of the chain must decrease, providing enough clearance for the extra gears. Other companies manufacture chains that are designed to work with the Campy and Shimano systems.</p>
<p>Derailleurs <br />On multi-speed bicycles, the derailleur moves the chain from one sprocket to another. They are actuated by a cable pulled from the shifters, typically mounted onto the handlebars (and sometimes down tubes) of the bicycle.</p>
<p>Front derailleur <br />The front derailleur moves the chain from chainring to chainring and acts as a chain guide, keeping the chain aligned. There are several chainring characteristics to consider when shopping for a front derailleur. The most important is double or triple (whether there are two or three chainrings attached to the crank). A triple front derailleur is designed with a deeper inner cage than a double derailleur to be able to push the chain up from the small ring.</p>
<p>Another key characteristic is chainring size. Certain derailleurs' cage diameters limit the maximum number of teeth possible on the large ring. The final characteristic is 8/9/10-speed compatibility. The width between the inner and outer cage varies between designs and may not work well when used with the wrong gearing.</p>
<p>Rear derailleur The rear derailleur acts as a chain guide and chain tensioner. As the chain moves from a large sprocket to a smaller one, it needs less chain to cover the circumference. The rear derailleur has a spring mechanism that pulls in that extra length of chain, known as 'chain wrap.' The rear derailleur also moves the chain from cog to cog and is one of the more active components of the bicycle. As you pedal and drive the chain around the chainrings and rear sprockets, the chain continuously runs through the rear derailleur.</p>
<p>Rear derailleurs are classified in the same manner as front derailleurs--first by speed: 8/9/10, then by double or triple (it is actually the difference between the largest and smallest chainring added to the difference between your largest and smallest cog). Typically, with a double chainring you can use a short cage and with a triple you would need a long cage. The longer cage helps take up the extra slack that appears when in the small ring.</p>
<p>Rear sprocket <br />The rear sprocket is the chain's rear interface with the bicycle. On a single speed (fixed gear included) you only use one rear sprocket, or cog. Multi-speed bikes have a cluster of cogs called 'cassettes' or 'freewheels.'</p>
<p>A freewheel is a group of cogs fixed to a 'freewheel' mechanism that allows you to coast; there is a ratcheting mechanism that allows the rear hub to spin as you coast, or ride without pedaling. A bike cassette is designed to be used with a rear hub equipped with a freewheel mechanism to which you attach the cogs.</p>
<p>Typical freewheels come in 5- to 7-speed versions, and cassettes are 8/9/10/11-speed, with few exceptions. Cassette cogs are designed to be set up in a particular orientation to aid in shifting; any variation of this orientation can cause serious shifting and safety issues. Cassettes are designed to be used with the appropriate chain, and the wrong chain won't ride on the teeth properly, resulting in a very poor and annoying ride.</p>
<p>Rear hub <br />The rear sprocket is attached to the hub directly (in the case of a fixed gear), or via a freewheel mechanism. The power from the front chainring is transmitted via the chain to the rear sprocket and into the rear hub, the central point of the rear wheel. The two main characteristics of a rear hub are hub type (cassette, freewheel or fixed) and hub spacing (the width from axle end to axle end). Modern road bikes are spaced to 130mm, mountain bikes to 135mm and track bikes to 120mm. Older bicycles were spaced to 126mm. They were typically designed for use with freewheel-type rear hubs that carried fewer gears.</p>
<p>With the advent of the freewheel hub and more gears, the rear dropout spacing was increased to accommodate. Another thing to consider when choosing a hub (if it is already built as part of a wheel) is the wheel diameter. The rim must be the appropriate size to fit into the frame and line up with the brake pads.</p>
<p>I suggest Bike Wagon for bike parts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div>
<p>Unlike other inventions like electricity and light bulb, the origin of bicycle has never been very clear on who invented it.  Depending on the nationality of who you ask you could get an American if you asked an American, a Scotsman or a Frenchman if you asked people of those nationalities. The bicycle went through centuries of innovation and improvement before arriving at what we have today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The first authentic bicycle was made in the year 1817 by Karl Drais von Sauerbronn to facilitate transportation during an acute shortage of horses for carriages. However, this device did not have any pedals and had to be moved by pushing one's feet against the ground. The question remains whether a bicycle without a pedal can be called a bicycle or not.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The next improvement took place in 1863 with the invention of the bone shaker or the Velocipede. The importance of this improvement can be understood from the fact that a museum dedicated to this innovation exists even today. The discomfort involved in riding this device over cobblestones prevented it from becoming more popular.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The year 1870 saw the bicycle become a lot more comfortable with the use of a big front wheel and solid <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/rubber-tires/"   rel="tag" >rubber tires</a>. However, even the slightest jerk would send the rider crashing to the ground. This proved to be a major impediment in the spread of bicycles.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As technology improved, bicycle manufacturing became more specialized. Ball bearings, caliper brakes, speed gears- all made their introduction as the first American manufacturer of cycles came into existence in 1878.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Safety improved and people began lobbying for better roads to make bicycle driving more comfortable. In the meantime, the rear wheel driven bicycle, as we know it today, was designed and proclaimed to be a lot safer. It was named the Bicyclette and was a French innovation.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The 1880's saw better and better bicycles being made. The 1890's was called a gay decade and the bicycle is credited for making quick transportation a reality. In 1896, Susan B. Anthony said that 'the bicycle has done more for the emancipation of women than anything else in the world.'</p>
<p> </p>
<p>However, the idea of not using a solid piece of rubber as the tire did not come about until, a young doctor named Dunlop came up with the bright idea of using air filled rubber tube to make the bicycle faster and more comfortable. A new era was born with bicycles being used by adults and kids alike. Bicycle clubs were formed and bicycle racing became a sport.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>World War I and World War II saw the growing importance of the bicycle. Of course, the automobile industry attracted all the attention and many feared that the bicycle may become a thing of the past. However, the bicycle has retained its charm and utility even today and has diversified and grown into a huge industry.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div>
<p>Want to save money and reduce your impact on the planet? Want to be healthier and feel better? These are some of the bicycling benefits you can enjoy when you ride just a few days a week. No need to worry if you haven't ridden in years. Give it a try, and it will all come back to you. It's just like, well, like riding a bike!</p>
<p>Bicycling benefits your environment. A bicycle requires far fewer resources to produce than a car, so its impact on the environment is less right from the get-go. And bicycling produces no emissions, leading to cleaner air. It's been shown that 40% of automobile trips are within two miles of home, and that 60% of pollution from emissions happens in the first few minutes, when the engine is cold. In fact, a four-mile trip by bicycle avoids 15 pounds of pollutants.</p>
<p>Bicycling benefits your economy. Obviously, a bicycle costs much less than a car to buy and maintain, and there is no gas to buy -- an expense that just keeps going up with a car. Bicycling can cut health care costs, as the exercise leads to greater fitness. A study has shown that an obese person averages up to $1500 more in medical costs per year than a fit person. Fitness also reduces the need for Medicare and Medicaid payments, thus saving taxpayer dollars.</p>
<p>Bicycling benefits your health. In 2000, 16.6% of all deaths were due to obesity, a figure roughly equal to those caused by cigarette smoking. Bicycling helps you lose weight and improve cardiovascular fitness, reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. The improved circulation reduces aches and pains, and the joint movement (without the pounding produced by running) reduces the risk of arthritis. You'll develop a stronger immune system to fight off illness. And bicycling reduces the blood level of cortisol, which has been associated with the mysterious Syndrome X -- a cluster of conditions and symptoms including heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, insulin resistance, and diabetes.</p>
<p>It's easy to reap those bicycling benefits. Most people have been riding a bike since they were kids, so there's no new skills to learn. It's just a matter of getting started.  It's not like hard, strenuous exercise -- it's an enjoyable activity you can do with your friends and family. And if the weather's bad, you can put your bicycle on a trainer and ride indoors. If you have trouble fitting a daily bicycle ride into your schedule, try the easiest way to incorporate bicycling into your life -- %26lt;a href='http://www.squidoo.com/bicycle-commuting-habit'%26gt;bicycle commuting.%26lt;/a%26gt; Make a commitment to bicycle several times a week, and these bicycling benefits are yours!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div>
<p>Previously parents were limited in their ability to take their children along for bicycle rides. Bicycle seats are for children who are at least able to sit up and then they are a bit precarious as well if you are not an expert <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/bicycle-rider/"   rel="tag" >bicycle rider</a>. Now there are bicycle trailers which can be pulled safely behind your bike with up to two children.</p>
<p>There are many different brands and styles of bicycle trailers that can be pulled behind your bicycle. Most have two <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/rear-wheels/"   rel="tag" >rear wheels</a> while some have three total wheels. All are covered from the sun and other elements. Children can bring blankets and pillows inside and make a nice, comfortable ride for themselves.</p>
<p>Each of the bicycle trailers attach to your bicycle in a variety of ways, mostly with a long metal tube and a hitch that securely connects to your seat stem. Some of them come with an extra harness strap for added security.</p>
<p>Many of the bicycle trailers are made not only for use with the bicycles, but convert into walking strollers, snow ski strollers or jogging strollers. This multiple use trailer is one of the higher-end bicycle trailers , but well worth the additional cost for the extra uses. There are even snow ski <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/bicycle-trailer/"   rel="tag" >bicycle trailer</a> kits to be able to place skis on the bottom of the trailer so you can snow ski or skate ski or even snow shoe with your child or children in the trailer while you wear a harness and pull the trailer along behind you.</p>
<p>Made of a durable, breathable material, a mixture of vinyl, and tent material, the bicycle trailers can tow one or two children or up to 100 pounds of camping gear, hiking gear or whatever you need to haul with your bicycle. They also come with a thin layer of netting so that bugs stay out and your child can see the world as they travel along with you. And many of the bicycle trailers are lightweight so that you are not weighing down when you are cycling. In addition, if something were to happen to you on your bike and you do tumble, the trailer will remain upright and the children or gear will be safe.</p>
<p>A bicycle trailer is great for taking the smaller children to preschool or having them accompany you to the grocer for a few items. Bicycling is a great way to stay fit and taking your little ones along is more fun than doing it alone. Using your bicycle trailer to haul groceries will save you gas by not using your car, or when you go camping, you can take the bicycle trailer on the trails with hiking and camping or fishing gear so you don't have to use a backpack.</p>
<p>Babies and small infants must be secured in a car seat before being placed in the bicycle trailer. Even though the trailers are stable and rarely tip over, the babies do get jostled around quite a bit and babies and infants can't hold on or sit up like toddlers and older children can. They must be protected and a carrier or car seat is the best way to protect them from bumps.</p>
<p>So if you are an active parent who enjoys a leisurely bicycle ride, a bicycle trailer is a great way to combine both your love of riding and your love of your children.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div>
<p>As the use for bicycles has become more popular as a gas saving transportation device the demand for different types of bicycle baskets has also grown. Bicycle baskets have traditionally been used for children's bicycles as an accessories and as part of the structure of three wheel bicycles used by older people.  Now there is a wide range of bicycle baskets that are designed to meet the needs of any cyclist.</p>
<p>When bicycles are used as the main <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/mode-of-transportation/"   rel="tag" >mode of transportation</a> for an individual they need a bicycle basket that will accommodate their daily needs. For individuals who bike to work the bicycle basket must be able to hold a briefcase, purse, bag, and/or lunch. These baskets historically rested on the handlebars of the bicycle however in recent years there has been an upsurge in the placement of the bicycle basket on the rear of the bike so that it is does not impede steering the bike and items do not fall out when making sharp turns with the handlebars of the bicycle.</p>
<p>Three wheel bicycles are ideal for bicycle baskets because they are usually build to accommodate individuals who carry groceries or other large parcels in them.  These bikes have baskets that span between the two <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/rear-wheels/"   rel="tag" >rear wheels</a> and are often deep enough to carry large parcels and packages. Since the rear wheels of a three wheel bike provide stability it is very rare that items dislodge from the basket.</p>
<p>A growing trend is the use of bicycle baskets on sports bikes which have hooks on them that attach to the handlebars of the bike. These baskets are designed in an array of shapes, sizes, and textures, and can be purchased to reflect the personality of the person using them.  There are sport bicycle baskets which are made of wicker and look like a regular basket but hang from the handlebars of the bike on hooks that are embedded into the side of the basket.  These baskets are not made to carry a lot of weight or a sizeable package, however are great for water bottles, power drinks, or other sports snacks that are needed for long distance bike rides.</p>
<p>When selecting a bicycle basket it is important that one decide what the primary use of the basket will be and how their bike is equipped to support the basket.  Many bikes that are designed for trick riding are not appropriate for bicycle baskets and the goods placed in a basket on this bike could easily be damaged or broken. But a bicycle that is designed for daily, regular use will usually accommodate a bicycle basket very well.</p>
<p>When a person is going to use their bike as their primary mode of transportation and will be carrying groceries or other heavy items in the basket then a person may want to consider the purchase of a three wheel bike.  A three wheel bike will provide support for the size of bicycle basket that is needed as well as a more <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/comfortable-ride/"   rel="tag" >comfortable ride</a> for the biker.</p>

<p>For those of us who love outdoor sports especially cycling or biking, the bicycle is most important form of gear. A good bicycle should have a good frame for the bicycle to perform better. The new age metal bike actually evolved from bicycles with wooden frames.</p>
<p>Today, any avid biker or bicycle manufacturer will tell you that carbon bicycle frames currently occupy the top spot in bicycle frames. This is because carbon bicycle frames offer amazing durability , strength and they are really light so they give you speed too. Carbon frames are a great option especially if you ride on rough terrains and high roads. The carbon frames are sturdy enough to stand the bumps and the jerks of the terrain.</p>
<p>Though a carbon frame bicycle may cost you a small fortune but it is totally worth the money especially if you have a passion for biking. Many Carbon <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/bicycle-frame/"   rel="tag" >Bicycle Frame</a> Sellers would tell you that these frames are also used by professional bikers who participate in races and marathons, and they are not wrong. Carbon bicycle frames are at the top of the market because they are sturdy , durable and light , they work good on any kind of terrain. The carbon bicycle frames also have shock absorbing properties and they also dampen the effect of shocks.</p>
<p>If you cannot afford the entire carbon bicycle frame then you could also go for a carbon bicycle part for example a carbon handle bar. Any good bicycle needs a sturdy handle bar, a carbon bicycle handlebar is sturdy , light , durable and has excellent shock absorbing properties. These enable the rider to maneuver the bicycle easily and smoothly.</p>
<p>Carbon frames are also long lasting and are durable in any kind of weather. Carbon frames are non- corrosive and the frame does not spoil even in the harshest weather.</p>
<p>Carbon bicycle frames are so light that one can easily carry them over a distance , in case of a rough and mean terrain. The malleability of the frame allows for having the bikes easily customized to suit the customer's needs.</p>
<p>So now you know everything you needed to know about carbon bicycle frames, but before buying one think hard about whether you are ready to spend so much on a bike. Carbon bikes are ideal for professional bikers and those who have a serious passion for biking.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Aside from its eco benefits, another advantage is its size. You can part <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/electric-bicycles/"   rel="tag" >electric bicycles</a> virtually anywhere without the stress usually associated with big vehicles. Enjoy hassle-free transport when you ride these types of bicycles.</p>
<p><strong>Background on Electric Bicycles </strong></p>
<p>Probably one of the major concerns among motorist regarding <a rel="external nofollow" href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tELV/IYs8">electric bicycles</a> is its battery life. This shouldn't be a concern though because manufacturers have developed sophisticated technologies that can power the bike over long-distances without stopping.  In some instances, the rechargeable battery within it is even powerful enough to climb over hills without putting strain on the motor. Of course, bikers can also opt to pedal over these hills themselves to save on electricity.</p>
<p>Electric bicycles are good for everyday use. The only inconvenience associated with it is its recharging time. This can be likened to stopping by the gas station to put gas into the vehicle. Once you get home, just plug it into the outlet and it will be good within a few hours.</p>
<p><strong>Types of Batteries</strong></p>
<p>While on the subject of batteries, it might be a good idea to know the different kinds of batteries used for these bikes. It will help you make the right choice. There are four basic types including:</p>
<p>Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) – majority of <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/electric-bikes/"   rel="tag" >electric bikes</a> today use SLA because it is easy to manufacture and inexpensive. It has a high energy density so it packs a lot of power. Another benefit is that virtually no maintenance is necessary. It is without its downsides though. For example, it is heavy and charging takes a long time.<br />
Nickel-Metal-Hydride (NiMH) – light and safer compared to SLA, NiMH is the preferred alternative of many bikers. It also charges quickly. It is great in warm weather but wintertime can reduce its performance.<br />
Lithium-Ion (Li-on) – maintenance-free, long battery life, and lightweight: these are the features you can expect from Li-on. More advanced electric bicycles contain this battery. But it is not that widely used because it is more expensive compared to other options.<br />
Lithium-Polymer (Li-Po) – as the newest type of <a href="http://www.bikebutler.com/tag/electric-bicycle/"   rel="tag" >electric bicycle</a> battery, it has to meet a lot of expectations and it delivers. Li-Po batteries are stable and have low toxicity. Because of this advanced features, it is also expensive. </p>
<p>Knowing the components within your electric bicycle will help you choose which one suits your need best. Be sure to look at the different models of electric bicycles in the market and know their features to get more value for your money.</p>
