Factors Affect Range Of An Electric Bike
on Nov 03, 2024
Ride Mode
According to the drive mode your Qualisports folding electric bike have, the PAS level you choose would affect the range of your e-bike. For example, Qualisports lightweight folding electric bike have 5 assist levels, the range under PAS 1 is more than under PAS 5 usually.
In daily use ,we suggest PAS 1 to 3; but when you need speed, PAS 5 is your choice, boost up! If you’re preparing for a long trip, we recommended pedaling as you can together with motor when in tough terrains; when in flat terrains, try PAS 0, exercise is good for health, right ?
Weight
This means the the whole weight load on the folding electric bike, such as your weight, cargo, pets and so on. It will also affect how far you can go before next charge. At this point, our Qualisports lightweight folding ebike is a good choice.
If you prefer traveling long trips, you should only bring things what is necessary with your folding electric. Too much weight will slow you down. Especially when climbing uphill, more weight will take more electric power to propel your foldable electric bike.
Terrains
The terrain where you ride with will also effect on the range of your electric bike.
Steep hills / rough ground / moddy terrain will drain your battery fast.
When ride at flat terrain , it won't drain much power. We suggest you make a route plan ahead , so you can choose flat terrains as possible or take the short cut .
Ride Tech
' What !? ride tech ? Did ride bike needs any tech? I thought any one with legs can do that. ' YES ,that right ! The ride technique will also have an effect on the range of your folding ebike. Like cadence , gear using , suspension set.
Meet the suspension ebike Beluga and Model 5!
It will be helpful if you are a 'old' bike rider, because you are experienced in riding ,that will help in increasing the range of electric bikes. Such as choosing the suitable gears for different terrains, turn off the front and rear suspension when riding on flat terrain.
Riding habits is also important ,if you keep in high speed or accelerate immediately , that will drain you battery fast.
Battery
Many factors can affect battery's range ,temperatures, cell quality, cell capacity... Low temperature will reduce the battery's efficiency, high temperature will reduce the reliability, we recommend to charged at a range of 32 °F to 113 °F, and discharged between -4°F to 131°F.
When stored, they should be in a cool and dry place and keep it 50% to 60% remaining capacity. Do not fully charged or drain out. The quality and capacity of battery cells are also important, LG / SAMSUMG both reliable. Our folding electric bike all using LG / SAMSUMG batterys.
Tire Types
That's right ,the types of tyre will also affect the range of your folding electric bike. HOW ? Let me explain, rolling resistance; it has nothing todo with your riding style, just the tire.
Fat tire folding ebike (3.0/4.0/4.5) have less range compared with the normal tyre(1.5/1.95/2.125). On the one hand , fat tires are more heavy, but it's not the main cause; on the other hand, fat tire folding ebikes do have much more rolling resistance than the normal tyre, this is the problem.
But ,easy, that won't effect too much on your folding ebike range. Different tire types are using for various terrains, fat tires can give you more grip while smaller tires are more strength saving .
If you need something ,you must give up something ,so we can't tell you which is absolutely best.

Differences Between Ebike Rated Power And Peak Power
on Sep 23, 2024
When you are going to purchasing an ebike, you will find some brand says their motor power is 350W or 750W and some how. But do you know what exact means about folding ebike motor power?
Ebike motor power divided into 2 types: Rated power also know as Nominal power; and Peak power also know as Maximum power.
Rated Power:
Definition: Rated power refers to the power level at which the ebike motor is designed to operate continuously and stably. The ebike motor can run for long periods at this power level, achieving optimal efficiency and minimal losses.Significance: Rated power reflects the ebike motor's regular performance and is the main reference value for normal use of the ebike.
Looking for lightest ebike? Click here.Peak Power:Definition: Peak power refers to the maximum power output the ebike motor can achieve for a short period. This is usually reached during high-load conditions or when starting up your folding ebike.Significance: Peak power is often used to describe the ebike motor's capacity under extreme conditions, such as during acceleration or climbing. However, operating at peak power for extended periods can lead to overheating or potential damage to the motor, and will dry your ebike battery out quickly.
For example, when you are using Qualisports folding ebike Volador, this bike's rated motor power is 350W while the peak power is approaching 500W, peak power while help you getting through some extreme conditions like uphills or heavy load.
Many folding ebikes on the market prefer talking about peak power, because it look like their folding bikes are powerful. Some folding ebikes will tell you their are talking about rated or peak power while others don't.
As folding electric bike brand, Qualisports lightweight folding electric bike could not provide higher motor power. Our folding ebike positioning is lightweight folding ebike, and we have the lightest folding ebike Nemo on the market.
So, rated power represents the ebike motor's stable operating capacity, while peak power represents the ebike motor's short-term output capability under extreme conditions.

Wait, What? Class 1 and 3 E-Bikes Banned in California?
on Sep 13, 2024
1
Yes, you read that right! California’s latest legislation is about to change the game for e-bike riders, and it’s leaving Class 1 and Class 3 bikes in the dust. So, what’s the deal? Let’s break it down before you panic.
What’s Happening?
California’s SB 1271 is shaking things up by redefining what qualifies as an electric bike. If this bill becomes law, Class 1 and Class 3 e-bikes—those that can’t resist sneaking in a little throttle-only action—are out. They’ll no longer fit California’s definition of an “electric bicycle.”
The new law says e-bikes in these categories must not be capable of propelling the bike solely by throttle. Pedal-assist only, people! If you’re cruising along without moving your legs, you’re in trouble with the new rules.
But What About Class 2 E-Bikes?
Phew! You can relax. Class 2 e-bikes are safe from this new restriction. These bikes allow throttle-powered riding up to 20 mph, meaning you can still enjoy that motor-assist without breaking a sweat or the law. Plus, pedal-assist remains an option, making them the versatile, rule-abiding heroes we all need right now.
What Else Is Changing?
The bill brings a few other changes to ensure safety and regulation, like:
New Testing Standards: Along with UL 2849 certification (which all our bikes already have, thank you very much), there’s now an additional standard, EN 15194, that applies to e-bikes and their batteries.
Advertising Crackdown: Selling or marketing e-bikes that can exceed 20 mph on motor power alone? Not anymore! This bill puts the brakes on that.
No Continuous Power Limits: Manufacturers can breathe a sigh of relief here—no extra power restrictions are being added to the federal 750-watt limit.
So, Why Stick with Class 2 Folding E-Bikes?
At Qualisports, we’re all about the compact, folding e-bike life, and our entire fleet is Class 2, meaning you can still enjoy throttle-powered rides without running afoul of the new law. With speeds from 16 mph to 20 mph, our bikes offer the perfect balance of power and control.
Here’s why our folding e-bikes are the ultimate choice:
Foldable and Portable: Need a bike that fits your city lifestyle? Our e-bikes fold down easily, making them perfect for cramped apartments, public transport, or even tossing in the back of your car for a weekend getaway.
Lightweight and Compact: Built to be light, starting with the lightest folding ebike, the Nemo, which weighs only 30 lbs, our e-bikes are designed to give you all the convenience without the bulk. Plus, they’re incredibly easy to carry and store, making them the ideal choice for on-the-go riders and Rvers.
Certified Safe: All our e-bikes come with UL 2849 certification by SGS, so you know you’re riding a bike that meets the highest safety standards.
Stay Ahead of the Curve
California’s new e-bike law might seem daunting, but rest assured that Class 2 e-bikes remain compliant and functional under the new regulations. Lightweight, foldable, and versatile, these bikes continue to offer a practical solution for many riders. If you're navigating the evolving landscape of e-bike regulations, it's good to know that there are options that meet the new standards while still delivering reliable performance.
