What is the difference between sales and Black Friday?
A typically French event, sales take place twice a year: in winter from January, and in summer from late June, early July. The sales last four weeks and during this period, French traders have the right to sell their stocks at a loss: this possibility is regulated by the Ministry of Commerce, and it cannot be applied outside. Usually, sales revolve around three to four markdowns, during which traders gradually lower their prices. The operation takes place both in physical stores and on the Internet, but it is limited to France.
Black Friday, on the other hand, is an international event. Since he’s from the United States, his date is always modeled on the Friday after Thanksgiving, which is as popular as Christmas in North America. This is why Black Friday always takes place on the last Friday of November. All traders can participate, without exception. However, in France, merchants are not allowed to sell at a loss, since the event does not take place during sales. The fact remains that Black Friday is very popular, in large part because it offers great savings as the holiday season approaches.
How to choose your electric bike during Black Friday?
The choice of an electrically assisted bicycle, or VAE, must first of all go through a reflection on its use. If you plan to use it only in the city to make several short trips per week, or if your goal is to take long walks on weekends in the countryside, you should not orient yourself towards the same model. A mid-weight eBike with a range of 25 to 40 km per charge is ideal for trips into town to go to work or run errands. On the other hand, for peri-urban walks, choose a model with a light frame and good shock absorbers, and ideally a range exceeding 40 km. Note, moreover, that electric assistance never exceeds 25 km / h in France.
Then, take an interest in the mode of propulsion: choose a model of VAE whose motor is integrated into the crankset, for progressive assistance, much more pleasant. The brakes are also a criterion not to be neglected: most models have disc brakes, but there are also hydraulic brakes, which require more maintenance. Also take an interest in lighting: choose a model equipped with LED headlights, and ideally effective signage on the sides. Finally, an electrically assisted bicycle with a removable battery is much easier to recharge than a model where it is fixed: that too, think about it.
