On this episode of Kilowatt, host Bodie sits down with returning guest and New Zealand resident Sean Howarth to explore the world of electric bikes. Sean shares his transition from professional bike mechanic and scenic trail tour guide to becoming a local franchisee and distributor for MeloYelo, a Kiwi-owned e-bike company designed for New Zealand's rugged terrain. Together, they break down the structural differences between hub motors and mid-drive motors, the practical benefits of step-through frames, and how thumb throttles from a complete stop can level the playing field for riders of all ages and fitness levels. Sean also highlights his experience navigating local regions using his all-electric LDV eDeliver 3 commercial van to transport demo units for no-pressure customer test rides. Whether you are a veteran cyclist or considering your very first electric ride, this conversation is packed with invaluable tips for finding the perfect e-bike.
