Why choose the bicycle as your daily means of transport
Giant and Liv, a leading brand in the production of high quality bicycles and cycling components, also encourage the use of bicycles for everyday trips: a form of sustainable mobility that brings considerable benefits not only to themselves but also to the surrounding environment.
Why choose the bike as a means of transport: the benefits for the environment
In recent years, sensitivity to issues such as environmental protection and the fight against pollution has gradually increased, and today there are many initiatives being taken so that everyone, in their own small way, can do their part to improve the situation. In this context, choosing the bicycle as a means of everyday transport is certainly an excellent choice. Moving by bike avoids the use of cars, motorbikes, buses and so on, reducing emissions of pollutants. In addition, traffic is reduced, and especially on shorter journeys – for example from home to the office – it can take less time than when using other means of transport. The Giant and Liv offer two models of pedal-assisted bicycles, the Giant Explore E+ and the Liv Amiti E+, which respond exactly to this need: they do not pollute, allow agile and fast transport, and make it even easier to move around.
E-Bikes by Giant and Liv: safe and comfortable
Especially in this period, it is essential to opt for safe forms of mobility that avoid overcrowding and excessive contact with others. In this sense, the bicycle is the ideal form of transport, because it allows you to maintain the right safety distance, and has technical features that make it a reliable means of transport on different types of terrain.
Whether you ride on city cycle paths or short dirt tracks, Explore E+ and Amiti E+ offer a comfortable and smooth ride, guaranteed by a powerful pedalling assistance system and practical integrated accessories. Both are equipped with efficient disc brakes, tyres designed to reduce the risk of punctures, rear and front lights – useful when travelling in poor visibility – and integrated luggage racks and mudguards. The bikes are also made with an Aluxx Sl aluminium frame, which ensures the highest quality performance in terms of solidity and lightness.
Moving around by bike: physical activity without too much effort
Regardless of age and degree of training, using your bike to get around is a great way to stay fit. All the more so in the case of pedal-assisted bicycles, physical activity is a possibility that extends to all kinds of cyclists.
Both the Explore E+ and the Amiti E+ can rely on the powerful SyncDrive Pro engine, a real benchmark in terms of performance and ease of use. Thanks to Hybrid Cycling Technology, the motor can support cyclists by transforming the muscle energy of pedalling into electrical energy. Together with it, Smart Assist Technology evaluates the driving conditions and the type of terrain on which you ride, and determines the precise amount of energy to be delivered in each situation. This always gives you the feeling of a comfortable, smooth ride. The power of the E-Bikes comes from their batteries: the men’s model is the EnergyPak Smart 625, while the women’s model is the 500Wh EnergyPak Smart. Both are integrated into the chassis, for a more elegant and modern design, and are easily removable. Finally, another feature that makes these E-Bikes accessible for everyone is the RideControl Ergo controls, located on the handlebar: these allow you to quickly access the assisted driving settings and choose the support you prefer in complete safety, even while pedalling and without having to move your hands from the handlebar.
