e bike rear motor

As the name suggests, E-bikes are electric bicycles which have grown increasingly widespread in ridership for both commuting and recreational cycling purposes over some recent years now. The rear motor is the most important part of these e-bike products which provides power to drive. There are many rear motors available in the market with varying power outputs, operation and design parameters that you may need to choose from so as to find out which would most suit your specific requirements.

However, when buying an e-bike rear motor it is essential to measure the torque and power output before purchase alongside bike compatibility. Thankfully, many of the best rear motors are available on individual bikes - but which option you choose will depend greatly upon your needs and personal preferences. The Bosch Performance CX, Shimano STEPS E8000 and the Bafang MaxDrive are some of the top recommendations for their good power to weight ratio, exceptional longevity (in no small part due to a metal gearbox) and compatibility with pretty much any e-bike on this list.

Compatibility Check

You may have found the perfect rear motor for your e-bike, so where to from here on how you will install and maintain it? While professional e-bike mechanics will be able to do these or similar jobs for cyclists, those with a bit of mechanical knowhow may wish to tackle some DIY.

Before you install the rear motor, make sure your bike has apertures that handle it correctly (like dropouts and torque arms.) You need to also ensure that the motor is compatible with your bike's frame and that it can take on both riders weight + bikes as well. Do a full test of operation to verify the correct and complete operation following installation.
