6 Reasons to Purchase an Electric Bicycle from Sixthreezero

Love the life you live. Live the life you love. ~ Bob Marley

When I was contacted by Sixthreezero to talk about their electric bicycles, I jumped at the chance! I pictured myself riding all over Bald Head Island on my electric bicycle…going to the grocery store and the coffee shop and enjoying myself immensely! There are so many great things about electric bikes that you may not have thought about and today, I want to make the case that everyone should have one!

The future of cycling is here and it’s very exciting! There is so much new technology these days, and life is changing and improving everyday! One really fun thing that has come along because of technology is the electric bicycle! If you’ve never ridden one…I promise you’re in for a treat!

The first time I got on my bike, I was a little nervous, but it literally took seconds for me to relax and enjoy the ride! Think of these bicycles as a scooter with petals. They use rechargeable batteries that can travel faster then most cyclers so you can get where you’re going that much faster and get some exercise at the same time. An electric bike is a low cost, energy efficient and emission free transportation that also provides physical and health benefits!

My bicycle is from a company (as referenced above) called Sixthreezero! Before I tell you about the benefits of an electric bicycle…here is a little bit about the company…

Sixthreezero was formed in 2005 and began selling bikes out of a garage in Hermosa Beach, California. They moved to a warehouse in Torrance California after a while and are still there today. This company was formed to embrace the cruiser bike culture and lifestyle in California. Sixthreezero has been in business for over seven years and they have sold tens of thousands of bikes that are cruising all around the country!

Sixthreezero makes very cool, great looking and simple bicycles that are comfortable, durable and reliable, for a very reasonable price. They are always looking to improve the bikes and stand behind them 100%. These bikes are made to last a lifetime and they are so much fun! Now on to the reasons I believe everyone should have an electric bike from Sixthreezero!

Electric Bicycles Offer Assisted Biking

E-bikes have battery-powered pedal assist that gives your pedalling a boost. As you’re riding, you can feel a surge that “helps” you get up a hill or move forward if you don’t want to pedal. This can reduce stress and impact on your knees. People of all ages can ride electric bicycles easily and for a much longer time than they would be able to ride a regular bike. Another plus…you don’t get as sweaty! I’m thinking a leisurely ride through California Wine Country with lots of stops might be in my future!

Electric Bikes are Fast and Flexible

The technology behind electric bikes gives you the ability to ride long distances with just a little effort. If you live in a city and want to cycle to work, this is the perfect bicycle to use and because so many cities now have bike lanes, it might even be quicker than driving! My bicycle from Sixthreezero looks just like a regular bike and no one knows it’s electric but me. I was blowing by another biker as I was riding up the hill near our home the other day and had to chuckle just a little bit because he had no idea that I had a little help!

Electric Bikes Improve Fitness Levels

Studies have been done showing that riding an electric bicycle is just as effective as a regular bike at improving fitness. Even though cycling with an electric bicycle is pedal assisted, it’s still exercise and good for your physical and mental health. Also, any time you can get outside to exercise, you reap the benefits of being in nature.

Electric Bicycles Save Money

After the initial purchase of the bicycle, if you use your bike instead of driving a car, it will save you money in the long run. If you use an electric bike instead of a car, it will save you money in the long run.
Electric bikes can substantially reduce transportation costs for commuters when replacing a car completely, or even using it a few days a week instead of driving. For every 25 miles you travel, you save $1.75 with an electric bike compared to the cost of filling a car with gas. Plus, in the long run you’ll be healthier which can save money on medical bills.

The Future of Transportation

Many countries in Southeast Asia are using electric bicycles as a sustainable mode of transportation, and with air pollution continuing to get worse…electric bikes might just be part of the answer to transportation in the future!

Electric Bicycles are Environmentally Friendly

I touched on this above, but with climate change and global warming being serious issues in our world today, an electric bicycle can go a long way in helping to reduce emissions from cars and help to improve conditions on our planet. Climate change and global warming are serious issues and we all need to play our part.

As you can see from the pictures, this electric bicycle from Sixthreezero is great looking and perfect for cruising through the park or just about anything else.
