Metabolic and Cardiovascular Responses to a Simulated Commute on an E-Bike

Source: Translational Journal

Compares cardiometabolic responses and ratings of perceived exertion between a regular bike and an e-bike at two different assist levels. Found that while cardiometabolic responses were lower for the e-bike, they were indicative of being at or near “moderate intensity,” suggesting that e-bike use may still benefit health-related fitness.
