Electric Bikes are awesome for Big people

If you are overweight, a fun way to get moving towards health and wellness is riding on an electric bike. You may think that riding on an electric bike won’t allow you to get exercise, but supersize electric bikes are different. These bikes are made for people over 200 pounds and they combine muscle power with a small motor.


It can be overwhelming to think about getting back on a bike if you haven’t in a while or if you have gained some weight. With an electric bike, you can get back in the saddle with a little help. The IZip bikes work with a small throttle that you twist. This twist gets the motor going and then you peddle the bike at your own speed. This is a practical way to improve your health and fitness. It is almost like a personal trainer. IZip bikes give you the boost of power you need, when you need it.

A great feature is that you can adjust the power you get from the throttle. If you want a little extra help getting up hills, you can adjust the power. Then you can pull back and put more energy into your peddling. Electric bikes are a great way to start cycling and getting some fun, healthy exercise. You can be the envy of those around you who may be thinking the bike is doing all the work. But you will have the satisfaction of knowing you are putting your own energy into becoming healthy at a pace that is right for you.
