What is the difference between Giant Explore E+ 1 and E+ 2? ›

Compare: 2021 Giant Explore E+ 1 vs Explore E+ 2 Electric Bike – 99 Spokes. The Giant Explore E+ 1 and Giant Explore E+ 2 Electric Bike are both 700c aluminum frame hybrid e-bikes with hydraulic disc brakes. The Explore E+ 1 has better components and a 2 × 10 drivetrain providing a wider range of gears.

Fast and powerful. SyncDrive Pro motor offers a seamless boost of pedaling support up to 45 kph.

For maximum long-distance endurance, all Explore E+ Pro / Explore E+ models can be retrofitted with an EnergyPak Plus battery. It provides an additional 250 Wh capacity, allowing for a total capacity of up to 1050 Wh and ranges of up to 300 km. Lightweight, compact, incredibly powerful, and whisper-quiet.

There, E-bike motors can have a max of 500W and assist up to 20MPH (32km/ph) or more.

It takes 2.2 hours to charge 80 percent with an EnergyPak Smart 625. The Smart charger also helps extend battery life. When the EnergyPak is charged more than 500 cycles, this charger uses a lower voltage, so the cells are used in a less energetic way.

Generally, manufacturers set an adjustable speed limiter to restrict the maximum speed of your ebikes for safety concerns. But you can adjust and set the speed as per the local government regulations and make electric bike faster. If your bike has a wired speed limiter, you can turn it off by disconnecting the wire.

Absolutely! Upgrading your e-bike's battery offers a pathway to battery enhancement, voltage increase, and range extension.

An Electric Bike should be easier to pedal than a regular bike! If your bike is hard to pedal, you want to make sure it is powered on, and in the correct PAS, or Pedal Assistance level using the + and - buttons on the left-hand side of the handlebar. Also, the gearing on the right-hand side needs to be set correctly.

Are Ebikes harder to pedal than regular bikes? ›

So when you talk about riding your e-bike without assistance, if you have an e-bike or you're looking at an e-bike that has one speed, just know that e-bike is going to be relatively difficult to pedal on flat ground without any assistance at all.

A larger battery capacity will generally mean a longer ebike range. Furthermore, using lower power settings and riding on flat, smooth terrains can help to extend the ebike range.

Class 1: eBikes that are pedal-assist only, with no throttle, and have a maximum assisted speed of 20 mph. Class 2: eBikes that also have a maximum speed of 20 mph, but are throttle-assisted. Class 3: eBikes that are pedal-assist only, with no throttle, and a maximum assisted speed of 28 mph.

One upgrade area is usually wheels; something that comes with the higher level builds. Next is the TCR Advanced 1. The difference between the Advanced 2 and Advanced 1 is the upgrade to Shimano's latest 105 Di2 group set; semi-wireless electronic gears deliver smooth, fast and very reliable gear shifting.

The Escape 1 Disc has a carbon fork and better components, while the Escape 2 Disc has an aluminum fork.

Watt Hours

This measurement takes both the power (voltage) and energy capacity (amp) into account. Volts x Amps = Watts hours. Most batteries provide 300-700Wh. The higher the watt hour number, the more energy it will provide in a single hour. For example, a 500Wh battery will be able to sustain 500w for 1 hour of use.
