SENIORS! Learn How to Ride an EBIKE - Step by Step Instruction on Riding an Electric Bike

Riding an ebike is very similar to riding a standard bicycle but it does also have some differences. For senior riders it is very important to have a good understanding on how to operate an electric bike. It is really important for seniors to be comfortable with all of the controls on their electric bike to ensure a safe ride every time out. When pedal assist turns on during a ride sometimes new ebike riders can feel jostled or startled by the power. This is another e bike element that is important to get used and comfortable with before venturing out on to long rides. The most important piece to learn on an ebike is how to properly use the throttle. When senior riders are not fully aware of the throttle and how to use it accidents can occur. Watch the video as Dustin get's instruction for seniors on how to ride an ebike.

Excellent and VERY useful for someone who hasn't ridden in 40 years. THANK YOU!!

[@gailbrown3118]

Very helpful, thank you 😊

[@waterguy5924]

This has to be the best, "Senior" assisted ride...exactly what i was looking for

[@1stTrickiwoo]

Thank you for this video. I haven't ridden a bike on over 30 years! We were at a recent RV show when hubby went past me riding an e bike he borrowed from another attendee. He came back so excited and declared how enjoyable the experience had been. (insert heavy sigh here ) We decided to get his and hers e bikes for our mother's/father's day gifts to each other, but fear and uncertainty had crept into my psyche. I wasn't sure where to start re-learning this skill. Thank you for the confidence boost.

[@lauricitro6646]

Thanks! Great tips! Would maybe like to see a close up shots of what buttons you are pushing

[@jackcurtis5784]

Great Video, Thank You so much. I wish I saw this before I lost control of my E Bike last summer. Coasting, low speed, not Paying Attention, 5 broken ribs, broken arm, a lot better but still hurting. 72 years old. I will be back on that bike this spring. Except now I will pay attention to what you just taught me.

[@cathum]

68 here, great demo and recommendations to the senior bikers, thank you. I lost control a couple of years and almost landed in the hospital.

[@SandraS64]

This was so useful. I have just bought my first e-bike. Thankyou

[@danpanderson]

Nice walkthru!

[@priscillaebecilio1693]

[@Titansolo]

Thank you soooooo much. Couldn't wait to get my ebike, haven't used it yet, because I m scared. After your video, I can now feel confident after learning important facts before riding in the streets. I still might stick to the sidewalk occasionally.🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️😻😻😻😻😻

[@nikkilesley2525]

Great tips, thank you! I’m not a senior, but still find this useful. 👍😁

[@chrisv-gb2fn]

This is a GREAT video, THANK YOU! I am a senior and i have osteoarthritis in my left hip. I learned a LOT from your video as I am shopping for my first eBike. What I didn't know is that you have to turn the motor OFF every time you prepare to STOP!!! That may be a deal-killer for me as I have to ride about 2 1/2 miles in the street or sidewalks before I get to the beach. With my semi-recumbent bike i'd say is stop 100s of times BEFORE I even get to the beach -- so if i understood your video lesson correctly -- that means i have to stop the motor 100s of times??? Is that correct?

[@deborahjohnston9893]

Best information ever for newbies. Thank you so much.

[@Nellyeee9116]

Thanks for the great tips, it was a real eye opener.

[@paulwallace9644]

great video thanks

[@knit-sewdelight8664]

I got one and it scared me immediately. Switching back to a regular bike because I am not sure I can get use to it. The speed is too fast for my small frame.

[@jerry3579]

Thanks so much!!

[@DrCarlLadd]

Thank you - this was super helpful

[@SherifAbdelhay]

Thank you so much, it is a very informative and detailed tutorial. ☺

[@C1nderfire]

I have a fat tire bike and can’t seem to make tight turns without almost falling or sometimes have to go over the curb or over the curb in the street bc I lose balance

[@Yzzziee]

Hand break does not work when pedal assist is on???

[@Specialffram]

On the Rickshaw bike can you move the handicapped seat up for the regular seat goes with someone How to save my phone and want to drive the bike too?

[@sixthreezero]

Sorry, I don't understand the question?

[@larryheaton689]

I'm 70 and want to mount a wired Freedom I have ordered. I wanted the rear suspension rather than the step thru. Can I lay the bike down and step over it and then pick it up and then get on the seat?

[@urphotoguy]

Yes you can. That is perfectly fine. Just remember to have your power OFF before you begin.

[@patrucuamaroda1857]

Thank you but senior without a 1-2-3 start

[@shutterbugKPS]

It’s a step-thru. Why did you swing your leg over??

[@Chafflives]

You missed pointing out that you should remember to take it off the stand. 😬

[@smilingdog54]

So you don’t have to use the throttle at all
