Electric bike: taming Luxembourg's hills
Electric assistance turns the climbs into a mere formality.
Luxembourg is a hilly country, and that's exactly where the electrically assisted bike shines. It doesn't pedal for you, but it helps with every push, making climbs much gentler and the ride accessible to almost everyone.
What the assistance changes
With an electric bike, you arrive without being drenched in sweat, even after a hill. It's ideal for reaching school, a job or a meetup while staying relaxed. Part of the capital's shared-bike fleet is electric.
Assistance doesn't excuse you from caution: the bike picks up speed faster, so anticipate your braking and respect other users. Helmet, lights and visible clothing remain your best allies.
If the terrain was putting you off cycling, the electric version removes the obstacle. Try a shared bike on a short trip, and you'll quickly see if this mode suits your daily life.
