Development of electric bicycle and its impact on the environment

Abstract An electric bicycle is a tool that is produced from a combination of a bicycle as a means of transportation which is added with an electric component as its driving force. It is known that bicycles can still be used even without electrical components. However, with the presence of an electrical component, the human power that is expended can be minimized. The current environment has undergone various changes. This is intended because of changes that occur because of humans. By using a qualitative descriptive method, this study is expected to provide knowledge about the impact on the environment from using an electric bicycle. And the result is that currently, the diversity of electric bicycles does not only provide the development of the bicycle itself.
