Abstract
Fuel-based vehicles have a significant impact on the environment, natural resources, and health of an ecosystem. E-Bicycles are a viable option as they are an eco-friendly cost-effective mode of transport. A consumer market gap of E-Bicycles with high maximum speed and good starting torque is identified. This paper discusses the design process, fabrication, and testing of an E-Bicycle. Further, the results compare the power consumption of the E-Bicycle at different speeds. The data presented in this paper can be incorporated into a predictive model for commercial E-bicycles that advise the user in real-time, the ideal speed to maximize their range based on the remaining onboard battery percentage.
