Cadence Sensor Electric Bikes – Easy, Comfortable Pedal Assist

Shop cadence sensor electric bikes at Richmond eBike, your local electric bike showroom and service centre in Richmond, BC.

A cadence sensor detects when the pedals are turning and activates motor assistance based on the selected pedal assist level. Unlike a torque sensor, it does not require you to pedal harder to request more assistance.

Why choose a cadence sensor e-bike?

  • Easy pedalling: Enjoy motor assistance without applying heavy pressure to the pedals.

  • Comfortable cruising: Ideal for relaxed recreational rides and everyday commuting.

  • Simple operation: Select your preferred pedal assist level and start pedalling.

  • Less physical effort: A practical option for riders who prefer gentle pedalling.

  • Excellent value: Cadence sensor systems are often more affordable than comparable torque sensor systems.
