Crystal-clear explanation. I recently bought an eBike, but I haven’t used it until I understand the difference. Thank you.

I built one of each. My favorite is throttle only. I do pedal all the time, but like to control exactly how much assist. No matter how smart the pedal sensor is, it cannot see the conditions, but I can anticipate a hill or traffic. About half of my riding is unassisted. I’m currently building another with no display; just a throttle, controller, motor & battery.

Very informative on PAS. Thanks. But, then you threw me a curve at the end re: Cadence vs Torque sensors.

For SOME seniors and people with disabilities, we would need pedal assist MORE than throttle. Thank U for explaining.. I care MORE about pedal assist than speed. I am disabled .

I agree!! Pedal assist is actually more fun then throttles!

I love to hear this. Why do you feel you need pedal assist more than throttle? It'd be great to make a video on this topic.

Going to add my vote for both, throttle and peddle assist. For me, throttle is a must have, for standing starts, in awkward situations, like on a hill, at an intersection, or when you stop without opportunity to downshift. It is also very handy, when you stop for a bite to eat, and don't want to peddle with a full stomach, or need to catch your breath, before continuing to peddle. Also very easy to disconnect the throttle if need be, for local bike restrictions. I would never purchase an E-Bike without throttle assist. As for pedal assist, there are not many E_Bike bikes without it, so it's not usually an either/or, it is just a question if, you want to have the added benefit of throttle or not. Also important to mention, that there are two kinds of throttle assist, one kind is like a motorcycle throttle, that has variable amount of boost, based on how far you twist the throttle. The other kind is a simple switch, that turns on the motor, with a fixed level of assist. or none at all. I have a budget E-Bike, that has the switch throttle, and cadence pedal assist. I am very happy with that, but if cost was no object, I would have all three sensors, + throttle.

@@sixthreezero I have been riding road bikes, mountain bikes, and motorcycles for 40 years. At 61, I have decided it’s time for an E-Bike, to keep me rolling on 2 wheels ;-) I have had my Aventon Pace 500, for about 3 weeks now. Have ridden it on streets, bike paths, gravel roads, and mountain bike, single track paths. Have had no situations, where I wish there wasn’t a throttle. But have had many, when it came in handy. Especially when having to stop on a hill, and then start again. Just push the throttle, until I can get both feet on the pedals working, is a major plus (especially at my age). Best wishes for your continued success, and happy bike riding.

The most educational video about eBike... eBikes 101 by Sixthreezero. Thank you. I just ordered a starter one by Retrospec. It is similar to yours. My job is about 4 miles away and I am not all that fit for a regular bike. I figured this would be a good option to get back out there with some form of exercise, but gradually get my strength up with a little assist...That and if I had to put my car in the shop so I wont have to pump so hard everyday to get to work on time.

Hi. First, thank you very much for the video, it is very helpful. I would like to ask what is the difference between bikes with 5 PAS modes and a single PAS mode. Is it a disadvantage to have a single PAS mode, especially for the battery efficiency? Appreciate for your answer. Thanks

Can you deactivate the unwanted, intrusive darned pedal-assist and ONLY use the throttle and/or can the PAS wires be physically disconnected? If not I ain't buying one. I - the rider-owner - want to decide when I need power not have "pensioners' pedelec" pedal-assist kicking in all the time. It also increases range if ebike-riders can activate power ONLY when we need it or want it using only the throttle with no interfering PAS / pedal assist!! Paul G
