We all know that watts are a measure of power, but what does that really mean for our rides?
- More watts generally means more power
- Higher watt motors can provide better acceleration and hill-climbing ability
- But they also tend to drain batteries faster
So, I’m curious:
1. What wattage is your current e-bike motor?
2. Have you ever upgraded to a higher watt motor? If so, what differences did you notice?
3. Do you think there’s a “sweet spot” for motor power, or is it always “the more, the better”?
Let’s share our experiences and thoughts! Maybe we can help each other figure out if upgrading to a higher watt motor is worth it.
Looking forward to hearing from you all!
