What is an e-bike?

How it works
An e-bike assists you while cycling with an electric motor. You pedal, and the motor helps you move forward more easily. You will immediately feel the difference, especially on hills or against headwinds. Most models have a battery that you can charge at home using a standard wall outlet.
In Germany, there are different terms for electric bicycles. Many people use "e-bike" as a generic term. However, there are differences:
Type |
Definition |
|---|---|
E-bike |

S-Pedelec |
Considered a moped; supports up to 45 km/h and is subject to different legal regulations. |
Tip: Most Cube e-bike models are pedelecs. They are considered bicycles and do not require an insurance license plate.
