Forget about traffic jams and parking problems

An electric bike is a convenient way to get to work. When you ride an electric bike, you can forget about traffic jams or looking for a parking place and you improve your fitness at the same time. Electric cycling isn’t nearly as strenuous as riding an ordinary bike.

Savings: An electric bike is not cheap, but it’s a very cost-effective option when compared to a car.

Remember this: An electric bike may seem like a big investment. However, you should think of an electric bike as alternative to a car for shorter trips.

Reducing your carbon footprint: Riding an electric bike for 100 kilometres a week between April and November can reduce your carbon footprint by 9% per year. If a million Finns did this, it would save the equivalent of 87,000 carbon footprints per year.
