GRETCHEN REYNOLDS: E-bikini dzinofanira kunge dziri hasha dzese here?

Kutyaira e-bhasikoro chitima chakanaka here? Kutyaira e-bhasikoro kwakachengeteka here?

Nekuda kuziva mukati uye kwakakomba kutengesa kwepedal-

akabatsira emabhasikoro emagetsi ari kufamba mukati medenda, iyi mibvunzo inogovana nekukurumidza kuchimbidzika. Tsvagurudzo mbiri dzakaringana uye dzinonyaradza kutsvagisa kwee-bhasikoro kwevatyairi uye tsaona kuraira kuti mhinduro kumibvunzo yega yega ndeyechokwadi, kunyangwe chero munhu achityaira e-bhasikoro achida kuramba achiziva kuti hunyanzvi hwacho chaihwo kuchovha nekiki it.

Sezvo vazhinji vedu pasina mubvunzo tinoziva, kutyaira bhasikoro kwave kuve kwakajairika uye kushuvira kwemwedzi gumi nemaviri, sezvo vanhu vazhinji vari mune chero imwe nyaya vasinga pinde mumba. Kutyaira kuchatisvitsa kunze, kusimba uye kuenda kumwe kunhu – chero kupi - kumwe. Zvakangodaro inowedzera inosanganisira chinhambwe, zvikomo, mhepo uye kazhinji leaden makumbo, izvo zvichave zvinotyisa.

Pinda e-mabhasikoro. Ichikurumidza yemabhasikoro emagetsi, aya ndiwo emigwagwa kana emabhasikoro emabhasikoro ane akawedzera bhatiri-inofambisa mota iyo inotora simba redu rekukweva.

Mazhinji e-mabhasikoro anowira mukufungidzirwa seimwe yemhando nhatu:

• Kirasi 1 e-mabhasikoro aripo anobatsira apa iwe uchifamba, zvakanyanya sekutanga velocity yemakumi maviri mamaira paawa.

• Kirasi 2 fashoni inopa simba ruzivo rwako kunyangwe usiri kubira, zvisinei tinya pamamaira makumi maviri paawa.

• Kirasi 3 e-mabhasikoro anobatsira kukwirisa zvakanyanya sekutanga velocity yemamaira makumi maviri nemasere paawa. (Mitemo yeNative inochinja-chinja nezvekuti ndeapi mabhasikoro anotenderwa panzira dzemabhasikoro, nzira kana nzira. Kuti uwane ruzivo nezve e-bhasikoro mirau munzvimbo yako, ona https://peopleforbikes.org/our-work/e-bikes/.)

Tichifunga hunyanzvi hwavo hwekutibatsira isu kufora mamaira akati wandei kunze tichida ngoro yewanano, e-mabhasikoro kutengesa kwakakura kwakwira ne70 pc kana kuwedzerwa mwedzi wega wega nekuti denda rakatanga, zvichibva pahuwandu hwekutengesa.

Zvisinei mukurumbira uyu unogona kutakura kukosha. Simon Cowell, acerbic anosarudza pa "America's Acquired Expertise," akaiswa muchipatara nguva pfupi yapfuura mushure mekupunzika kwake zvakare muchiitiko chake chekutanga pae-bhasikoro idzva.

Vanhu vazhinji vakanzwa dzakasiyana (kazhinji apokirifa) ngano nezve e-bhasikoro tsaona. Uye vashoma vanhu vanoshamisika kana uchityaira e-bhasikoro, nerubatsiro rwayo, kunyange kuverenga sechiitwa.

Pane izvo zvekupedzisira zvinoenderana, kunyangwe, iyo yekutanga yeiyo nyowani yekutsvaga kutsvagisa inosimbisa. Rakadhindwa muna Chikunguru muThe Worldwide Journal yeEnvironmental Analysis uye Veruzhinji Well being, zvaibata zvine hutano vakadzi vakuru nevarume muHamburg, Germany, vakabvuma kumisikidza kutyaira zvese zviri zviviri bhasikoro kana e-bhasikoro kupfuura maviri akaparadzaniswa evhiki mbiri.

Wese munhu anozvipira anosarudza yake inonyanya kufarirwa e-bhasikoro mannequin, neakawanda achisarudza emabhasikoro emumigwagwa aine prime anobatsira kumhanya angangoita makumi maviri mamaira paawa. Kubhadhara iyo inyowani nyaya, vabatsiri vakapedza mavhiki mashoma vachizojairira mae-mabhasikoro avo kupfuura nguva yekutsvaga.

Vatsvaguriri vakawedzera vazvipiri vavo zvekuratidzira, coronary moyo charges kuratidza uye yakasarudzika nharembozha app iyo nzvimbo iyo vatasvi vangangotaura mafambiro avo, daro uye nemuviri kudhonza kwese chiitiko chavakange vanzwa.

Masayendisiti haana kupa avo vanozvipira chero sarudzo, zvisinei, nezvenzvimbo, riini kana sei kazhinji kuti zviitike, anodaro Hedwig Stenner, anoongorora akabatana paInstitute of Sports zviitiko Zvinodhaka paHannover Medical College, uyo akatungamira iyo nyowani kutsvagurudza. Vatsvagiri vaishuvira kuona kuti vanhu, pavari vega, vangashandisa sei mabhasikoro akasiyana zvachose, uye kuti kana kutyaira kwavo kuchizochinja nema e-mabhasikoro.

Rubatsiro rwemagetsi rwakachinja maitiro avo, vaongorori vakawana. Kazhinji, vakadzi nevarume vaichovha zvakawedzera mukati mevhiki mbiri nemae-mabhasikoro, achienzanisa anenge mashanu akakwira pavhiki ipapo, maringe matatu pavhiki nezvakajairika macircule.

Sezvineiwo, madaro evatasvi vevanhu vazhinji haana kusimuka, chero rudzi rwemudhudhudhu wavaitasva; kukwira kwavo kwanga kusiri kureba pae-mabhasikoro, zvisinei hazvo vanga vachiwanzowedzerwa.

Hwavo moyo wecoronary unopomera nekuwedzera zvakasiyana. Kazhinji, zvevanhu zvemoyo coronary mhosva zvaive zvekusvika 8 pc yakaderera mushure mekukwiridzira e-mabhasikoro, zvisinei zvakadaro zvakaramba zvichisimudzwa

mukati meakasiyana-siyana mafungiro-nezveavhareji chitima.

Nekudaro, mukufamba kwemavhiki maviri apo vazvipiri vakatasva e-mabhasikoro, vakaunganidza maminiti akakwana evhareji kurovedza muviri kuti vazadzise yakajairwa chitima kuraira kwemaminetsi zana nemakumi mashanu evhareji yekurovedza muviri. Mushure mekunge vatasva zvakajairwa

mabhasikoro, ivo havana.

Kunyanya zvinowedzera zvichinzi vanofarira rubatsiro rwechi pedal, Stenner anodaro. Vakuru kupfuura vaviri-muzvitatu vevabatsiri vakaraira vaongorori ivo vaida e-mabhasikoro uye vanozofunga nezvekuvashandisa "kwemakore mashoma," zvichibva pabvunzo yekupedzisira yekutsvaga.

Nekudaro kuti e-mabhasikoro angangoisa njodzi hombe kune tsaona pane akajairika mabhasikoro anogara akavhurika mubvunzo. "Hapana tsaona dzakakomba dzainge dzaudzwa isu" mukati mekuongorora, Stenner anodaro.

Iko kupesana kutsva kutsva kwekutsvaga e-mabhasikoro, iyo yakadhindwa muna Zvita muKukuvadza Kudzivirira, kune imwe yambiro. Yayo, vatsvagiri veNew York College's Koreji yeMishonga inodonhedza dhatabhesi yenyika yese yekukurumidzira kamuri yekushanya kuti uwane ruzivo nezve tsaona dzakabatana nekutyaira bhasikoro rakajairika, mudhudhudhu, kana e-bhasikoro kubva 2000 kusvika 2017.

Vakawana zvakawanda zvedzidzo. Vakuru vanopfuura mamirioni mapfumbamwe evarume, vasikana nevechidiki vakasimbiswa mukamuri yekukurumidzira mushure mekukuvara uku uchityaira bhasikoro rakajairika mumakore ese gumi nemanomwe. Mumwezve zviuru zana nemakumi mana akazvikuvadza pama scooter, uye vangangoita zviuru zvitatu pae-bikes (chinhu chisingawanzoitika mukati memakore ekutanga ekutsvaga).

Kazhinji, tsaona-bhasikoro tsaona dzainge dzave dzakanyanya kunyanyisa uye dzinenge dzichida kugara muchipatara.

Nei e-bikers vaida kuzvikuvadza zvakanyanya kupfuura vatyairi vakasiyana vasingafanire kuve pachena kubva paruzivo rwekukuvara, anodaro Charles DiMaggio, anokanganisa epidemiologist ku NYU Langone Well being, uyo akatungamira iyo nyowani kutsvagurudza. Zvisinei velocity pasina mubvunzo yakaita basa.

"Tese tinoziva kuti e-mabhasikoro anogona kuenda nekukurumidza kupfuura zvakajairika kutenderera," anodaro, kunze kwekunge iwe uri mujaho webhasikoro uyo anobhomba pasi pemakomo akareba kupfuura makumi maviri kana makumi matatu mamaira paawa. "Uye isu tese tinoziva kuti kuwedzera kwakanyanya kunoguma nenjodzi dzakanyanya."

Nekudaro panogona kuve neruzivo runokurudzira rwakamisikidzwa mukati mehuwandu hwekukuvara, anodaro. Mukati memakore ekutanga akafukidzwa nekutsvaga, yakawanda yenjodzi dze e-bhasikoro dzakanangana nevana vari pasi pemakore gumi nemasere, vanoita kunge ndivo vekutanga kutora iyi nyowani yekuziva bhasikoro. Chiitiko pakati peboka iri chakadzikira zvakanyanya mukati memakore ekupedzisira ekutsvaga, kunyangwe, kunyangwe nekuti chakasimuka pakati pevanhu vane makore makumi mashanu kusvika makumi matanhatu nemashanu.

Iyi shanduko ingangonongedza kuti vechidiki vatyairi vakakura kuva "vanoziva zvakanyanya" nemazano ekuti ungazowana sei e-mabhasikoro zvakachengeteka, DiMaggio anodaro, kukura uko, nekufamba kwenguva nehunyanzvi, kunofanirwa kudzora tsaona pakati pevakasiyana, vatyairi vakuru.

Kana iwo manhamba anogona kuraira kuti vashoma vechidiki vari kushandisa e-mabhasikoro, vachisiya amai vavo nababa kana vanasekuru kuti vave avo izvozvi kuti vatarise e-mabhasikoro, vobva vadonha kubva kwavari.

Muzviitiko zvese izvi, kunyangwe, iyo yekutsvaga kwekutsvaga iri pachena, DiMaggio anodaro. Pakutanga pane kuenda kumigwagwa kana nzira pae-bhasikoro, "zija wega nebhasikoro," anodaro. “Pfeka ngowani. Cherechedza vashanyi nhungamiro. Usanwa uye unzwe. ”

E-mabhasikoro, pamoyo wecoronary, ari mabhasikoro, saka mune chiitiko iwe unogona kuwana mudhudhudhu, iwe unogona zvakare kuona e-bhasikoro. "Unogona kungonzwa sekunge une makumbo egamba" pamatanho emagetsi akakwidziridzwa, anodaro Ian Kenny, e-bhasikoro modhi mukuru we Specialised, femu yemudhudhudhu inogadzira magetsi emigwagwa nemabhasikoro emakomo.

E-mabhasikoro anowedzera kumhanya kwekuchovha bhasikoro, kunyangwe, vatyairi vazhinji vatsva vangabatsirikana kubva kune vamwe vanocherekedza kutenderera munzvimbo yakachengetedzwa nevashanyi vashoma pakutanga pane kuenda kumigwagwa kana nzira, Kenny anodaro. Tsvaga hombe isina chinhu yekupaka mota kana mugwagwa wakavharwa kune vashanyi mukati meiyo denda pane ako ekutanga kutasva mabhiza.

Munguva dzese dzekuzunguzika, shandisa bhasikoro rako rakadzikira rubatsiro rwekugadzika. (E-bikes zvakanyatsosiyana zvinopa zvakasiyana zvakasiyana mabhureki ebatsiro.) E-mabhasikoro anomhanyisa kukurumidza kupfuura zvakajairika mabhasikoro, Kenny anobuda kunze, uye iko kungoerekana kwaitika kukurumidza kuchikanganisa uye kupaza vatyairi vasina kugadzirira.

Tevedza kunonoka uye kubhurega futi. "Nekuda kwee-mabhasikoro anorema uye anokurumidza kufamba, vangangoda imwe nguva nedaro kuti vamire" pane bhasikoro rakajairika, Kenny anodaro.

Paunenge uchienda kumigwagwa yakavhurika kana nzira, ziva mupfungwa kuti utarise hupenyu hwako hwebhatiri. Iwo mamaira anogona kutsvedza nepo kukwirisa kwako kuchibatsirwa, zvisinei rwendo rwekudzoka rwunogona kunge rwakareba uye rwunonetesa kana iwe wakadurura bhatiri rako, kunyanya sezvo e-mabhasikoro, pane ese, achiremerwa kupfuura mabhasikoro akajairwa.

Chekupedzisira, pfeka masiki kuitira kana uri akakomberedza vatasvi vakasiyana uye vanofamba netsoka, uye pamwe wedzera bhero rejaunty kubhaisikopo rako, dai yanga isiri gadhi rezvekujairika. Riraidze pakutanga kupfuura kupfuura chero munhu.

"Bata nevamwe sezvaunoda kubatwa," anodaro Kenny. "Hazvitombofadze kuvhundutswa nemuridzi webhasikoro riri kuuya."
