Abstract

Introduction: Hybrid bicycles combine the features of road bikes and mountain bikes, offering a versatile and practical mode of transportation. The focus of the hybrid bicycle project is on energy conservation. Designed with a lightweight frame, comfortable seating, and efficient wheels, these bikes provide riders with speed, control, and flexibility on various terrains. Their adaptability, ease of use, and low maintenance requirements contribute to their growing popularity.

Methods: The hybrid bicycles in this project include a 250 W brushless motor, a lead-acid battery, a controller, and a 110 cc internal combustion engine commonly used in motorcycles and scooters. The engine operates on the principle of internal combustion, delivering optimal performance in a compact and lightweight package. The BLDC motor, known for its efficiency and reliability, utilizes permanent magnets to generate magnetic fields, eliminating the need for brushes and commutators. Lead-acid batteries, widely used in various applications, store and release electrical energy effectively. Controllers play a crucial role in managing electric motor operations, regulating speed, torque, and direction of rotation.

Results: Hybrid bicycles offer a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to cars for commuting. The paper explores hybrid bicycles' design, advantages, and potential impact on the environment and public health, aiming to encourage their adoption for daily commutes and recreational activities. The Speed range about 40-45 km/hr with 2.688 hrs of effective battery.

Conclusion: It also discusses the potential for advancements in battery-powered electric hybrid bikes to enhance their appeal and impact. Ultimately, hybrid bicycles have the potential to reduce traffic congestion and decrease air pollution.
