LITTLETON, Colo. — The popularity of electric bicycles, or e-bikes, has been sudden and overwhelming.Andy Christman, owner of Pedal Bike Shop in Littleton, told Denver7 e-bikes make up the fastest growing segment of his sales.
Christman said he sells an e-bike model that can go 20 mph and another that can go 28 mph. But there are even faster e-bikes for sale.Steve Roe is with Bike Jeffco, which promotes safe cycling in the area. The group regularly addresses the new opportunities — and new risks — of e-bike ridership.Park rangers say their focus now is educating people to ride the right way.
