eZee bike Canada is at the forefront of quality electric bicycles in Canada.

** A lot of the content in our site is courtesy of our friends in South Africa http://www.ezeebike.co.za/ . We also freely share information on our site with them to better serve the electric bike community.

An eZee electric bicycle looks exactly like a conventional bicycle, but is fitted with a state of the art electric motor, battery and controller system. It encourages cycling through providing all the gain of conventional cycling, but without the pain. Of course, at any time the bicycle can be peddled like a normal bicycle if desired, with the electric motor augmenting the human effort. Recent advances in technology makes electric bicycles the most energy and cost efficient forms of transport available. In fact, the cost of the electricity used is less than the energy equivalent amount of food necessary to travel the same distance (40 cents of electricity used per 100km’s traveled). With great health and fitness benefits, electric bicycles do not only put the fun back into cycling, but also makes sense for millions of people around the world.

While needing no vehicle registration or driver’s license and only the basic skills to ride a normal bicycle, this technology is easily accessible to anyone; from the daily commuter riding to work and back to the health conscious couple going for a Sunday bicycle trip in the countryside. In addition to extreme convenience, eZee electric bicycles are quite and emit zero emissions during operation. They are meticulously designed to the highest quality specifications producing efficient green transporters that are as smart as they are exhilarating. eZee bikes have been proven in Canada, Europe, UK, USA, Australia and New Zealand and has repeatedly taken the top honors at electric bicycle races and events.

They have been designed from the outset by an electric bike designer whose goal is to design and build the world’s best electric bike. An incredible amount of testing, effort, listening to riders, and traditional R&D, has brought the eZee bike to where it is today - a leader!. Attention to detail can be found right down to the smallest components. All our eZee electric bikes come with removable, lockable, power packs that use 37V 10A Lithium Polymer batteries. They are easily recharged simply by plugging into a standard wall plug. eZee bikes are built around alloy frames and use lighter battery technology making them, on average, around 10-12kg lighter than most electric bikes. Because the batterines are removable the bikes are even easier to transport on a bike rack.

The positionioning of the battery pack is important. It is no accident that the battery packes on the eZee bikes are located beneath the seat to optimize the handling characteristics of the bike.

Beware: Many cheap electric bicycles with heavy steel frames and old-fashioned battery systems exist. These bikes are inefficient and usually convert more energy into heat than movement. Also, quality electric bicycles are complex machines that is designed with the whole bicycle in mind. Several low quality kits exist to convert conventional bicycles into electric bicycles; these gadgets usually leads to more frustration than pleasure. Our supplier holds several important patents and use a very advanced battery management system.

FAQ

What is an eZee electric bicycle?

An eZee electric bicycle looks exactly like a conventional bicycle, but is fitted with a state of the art electric motor, battery and controller system. It encourages cycling through providing all the gain of conventional cycling, but without the pain. Electric bicycles are emerging as an ideal form of urban transportation for daily commuting.

Why eZee vs. OTHER ELECTRIC BIKEs?

eZee bikes have been designed from the outset by an electric bike designer whose goal is to design and build the worlds best electric bike. eZee has invested more in R&D than any other electric bicycle we know of and the results are spectacular. Many of the technologies are proprietary, yet, when it makes sense to do so, eZee uses mainstream bicycle components from well know suppliers such as Shimano. Attention to detail can be found right down to the smallest components. The eZee bike is a beautifully balanced machine. It’s light weight and exceptional ride characteristics make it handle beautifully, and provide a smooth ride. And they’re light enough to lift, which is really important when it comes to parking it away.

Do I need a license or registration?

eZee communicates regularly with the Federal, Provicial, and municipal governments to see bikes comply with all the proposed regulations. Currently, eZee bikes are viewed as conventional bicycles, i.e. same rules apply. Therefore, no license is required to ride eZee bikes on Canadian roads. Note: other so-called electric bikes may not comply, if you are unsure, please contact us for help and information.

In general, electric bikes must not be capable of speeds faster than 32 km/hr (without pedalling) and must not have power in excess of 500 Watts or they will be covered by more stringent regulations.

How far can I go on one charge?

eZee bikes can go up to 60 km's on a single charge depending on the eZee model, the cyclists weight and terrain. Of course, the rider can pedal at any time, extending the range.

How fast can I go on an eZee?

You can go up to 30km/h without touching the pedals, depending on the eZee model, the rider weight and the terrain. However, once you're at that top speed, it's easy to pedal and use the gears to go much faster.

Is the bike light enough to lift unaided?

A lot of electric bikes come with heavy steel frames and old-fashioned lead acid batteries. eZee bikes are built around alloy frames and use lighter battery technology, and are, on average, around 10-12kg lighter than most electric bikes. And they all come with removable batteries, making them even easier to transport on a bike rack.

What will you do if something goes wrong?

All eZee bikes come with a one year guarantee. We are only working with dealers who can deliver customer service excellence.

What is the life span of the battery?

The battery has a lifetime of about 500 charges, meaning about 2 years worth of full charges and discharges for a person using the bike every working day for a 50km trip. One of the reasons eZee uses Li+ batteries...it lasts almost 45% longer than its nearest competition NiMH.
