How to choose your used Matra electric bike
Choose your used Matra electric bike from among the best-sellers refurbished by Upway ! There are two main criteria for choosing a Matra electric bike: your body type and your type of use.
The choice of your electric bike depends in part on your size. Choosing the right size bike is important for your comfort, but also for your safety. To find the right frame size for you, you can measure the distance between your crotch and the ground. Then, you can use a correspondence chart designed by the bike brands themselves to find the recommended frame size based on this measurement.
It is also important to consider your body type, riding position preferences and the type of terrain you will be riding on. For example, if you prefer a more upright and relaxed riding position, choose a larger frame. If you prefer a more aggressive and sporty riding position, choose a smaller frame. Your gender may also be important in choosing your Matra electric bicycle.
Matra electric bike for women or Matra electric bike for men?
Strictly speaking, you won't find Matra electric bikes for women and Matra electric bikes for men. The manufacturer designs mixed models, developed to suit both sexes.
In general, the difference between a electric bike for women and men's electric bikes is the geometry of the frame. Women's e-bike frames are often designed with a lower top tube to facilitate straddling and to match women's leg length. In addition, the handlebars are often narrower and the grips are usually smaller to fit women's hands.
However, it is important to note that every cyclist is different, and some men may feel more comfortable on an electric bike designed for women, and vice versa. Thus, it is essential to choose an electric bike that suits your body type and personal preferences, rather than limiting yourself to the "male" and "female" categories. Ultimately, the choice of an electric bike should be based on comfort, safety and riding pleasure.
