If you search Google on “electric bikes for men” – you will not get enough results – although manufacturers are making bikes – keeping men’s anatomical structure in mind. This is what provoked me to write an article about men’s best electric bikes.
When buying a moped or a motor bike you will choose the most hunky looking ones – to attract more eyes on the road. The same goes when you are buying a bicycle or especially an e-bike. A black beauty with a sturdy built which gives you a muscular look will be very well placed on you!
Men’s bike like every other thing should be perfectly suited for their designated gender, and it’s not just about the looks. You might not notice the differences in bikes designed for men – in your first look – but after some time in the saddle, your body will thank you for a bike that fits correctly.
Consider the following if you want a men’s bike –
- The top tube is generally parallel to the ground in accordance to men’s torso – while the overall height of the bike is short.
- Bikes especially designed for men’s have a narrow seat in comparison to women’s but are longer in size.
- Handlebars on men’s bike are generally wider and longer – to accommodate wide and long shoulders. The width between two handlebars varies from 40 – 42 centimeters.
- The grips on the handlebars are big in comparison to other women’s bikes – this is to accommodate men’s fist size. Proper grip gives better control.
- The brake levers in men’s bikes are placed in relation to their fingers stretch size.
- Men’s legs are longer considering their torso size – this requires the crank’s in an e-bike to be a little lengthy that allows comfortable pedaling. Go for the bikes which provide 170 millimeters cranks.
- A strong engine, a durable battery and good suspensions is always the need in a men’s bike. General analysis suggests that men’s drive at an accelerating speed in compared to women’s and they cycle more often on difficult terrains. Keeping these two things in mind – it is always advisable to have the best of engines and batteries to better assist on roads and even on hilly or rugged surfaces.
