Display and screens for electric bicycles

What type of screen should I use on my e-bike?

When choosing a display for your electric bike , it is important to consider the information you need and the ease of use while riding. Here are some types of screens you can consider:
- Basic screens : The basic screens show speed, distance traveled and remaining battery life. They are simple and inexpensive, but do not offer much additional information.
- LCD screens : LCD screens offer more information such as assistance level, average speed, distance traveled and remaining battery life. They are also often backlit for better visibility in low light conditions.
- OLED screens : OLED screens have a higher image quality than LCD screens and offer detailed information such as current speed, average speed, remaining battery life, assistance level, distance traveled and time.
- Touch screens : Touch screens offer intuitive navigation and allow the rider to easily change settings while riding. However, they can be more expensive and require more attention from the rider while in use.
- Smartphone screens : Some e-bikes offer the option of using a smartphone app as a screen, allowing you to customize the information displayed and keep track of your rides. However, this may require a specialized phone holder and a stable connection.

In short, choose a screen that suits your information needs and is easy to use while driving. Consider whether the quality of the screen, backlighting, navigation and connectivity is relevant to your use.

How to know which display works well on my e-bike?

To know which display is suitable for your e-bike, it is important to know the model and specifications of your electric bike . Each e-bike model will have its own requirements for the display.
If you are replacing the existing display, it is best to ensure that the new display is compatible with the e-bike system. If you're not sure which display is compatible, you can check your electric bike's user manual or contact the manufacturer for additional information. Some other considerations that you can take into account when choosing a display for your e-bike are:
- Features : What features do you need in a display? Do you want a display that shows speed, battery life and distance travelled? Do you want a touch screen or physical buttons?
- Size : What size display do you need? A larger display can be easier to read, but it can also be heavier and take up more space on the bike's handlebars.
- Screen quality : Is the screen bright enough to be easy to read in different light conditions? Is it weather and scratch resistant?
- Price : What is your budget? More advanced displays may be more expensive, but they may also offer more features and be more reliable in the long run.
Taking these considerations into account, you can choose a display that suits your needs and budget.
