ExtraEnergy Pedelec and E-Bike Magazine no. 13
Issue 13 of the ExtraEnergy Pedelec and E-Bike Magazine is in English and German, and includes 26 detailed test reports and results. Find your perfect pedelec via the product categories. But don’t forget to take a thorough test ride before you buy.
On 3 March 2016, the winners of the pedelec and e-bike test autumn 2015 were honoured at Taipei Cycle Show 2016.
In this, the 13th edition of the ExtraEnergy Magazine, the spotlight is firmly on the test results for the 2016 models which we tested in Autumn 2015, a total of 26 bikes. Seven of these pedelecs were crowned test winners, having most closely matched the requirements set for their particular product category.

About ExtraEnergy
ExtraEnergy has carried out independent e-bike and pedelec tests since 1992. Since then the organisation has established itself as the most influential information, user protection and promotional organisation for light electric vehicles (LEVs) worldwide.
The founders realised from the start that these vehicles need to be experienced first-hand. Since 1997 the Test IT Track has been on the road, and today has three units for the Test IT Show. ExtraEnergy is also rooted at its test facility in Tanna, where 24 years of test reports and LEV history are on display at the LEV Museum.
Other services on offer include presentations and exhibitions at trade and public shows, plus information distribution with the assistance of correspondents worldwide.
Alongside our physical presence, www.extraenergy.org provides a treasure-house of information online. With support from the European Union and the IEA (International Energy Agency), in 2012 the Go Pedelec! Handbook was published in German, English, Dutch, Hungarian, Czech, Italian, Spanish and Chinese, including much new information and best practice studies for electric-assist two-wheelers.
As founding members of the EnergyBus and BATSO (Battery Safety Organisation) associations, ExtraEnergy is also active on both the ISO (International Standards Organisation) Standards Committee, with a focus on mechanical standardisation, and on the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), and so helps set safety and communication standards for LEVs worldwide.
