E-BIKE vs. ORDINARY BICYCLE

What and for who is a mountain electric bike?

An electric bicycle is a bicycle that moves as you turn the pedals just like a regular one, but the motor helps you with that. An electric bicycle is not a motorcycle and will not ride alone. The battery gives energy to the engine, and the commands for regulating the assistance are adjusted on the screen, which is located on the steering wheel. Assistance programs are:
  • OFF – without motor assistance (ride like a regular bicycle)
  • EKO – helps/adds 60% of power
  • TOUR – helps/adds 140% of power
  • EMTB – helps/adds 140-340% of power (adjusts power as needed)
  • TURBO – helps/adds 340% of power

Destinations

Lukomir is the highest and most isolated village in BiH. It is located on the southern slopes of Bjelasnica, about 50 km from Sarajevo and about 1,500 meters above sea level, and today is the habitat of residents who cherish the tradition of the village.

There is a legend connected with the stream, which says that in ancient times the inhabitants of Umoljani were attacked by a huge dragon. He flew from the canyon of Rakitnica and had the body of a snake, so winding to Umoljani he left behind a trail that flows through Studeni potok today.

The village is located at an altitude of 1353 m, on the mountain Bjelasnica. At the entrance to Umoljani in Dolovi, about 200 meters from the bridge, is a necropolis with 47 old tombstones.
