Abstract

As we can see that the problem of traffic and pollution due to fossil fuels is increasing in the whole world. Due to gases like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and other gases rate of global warming effect is increasing, that will directly affect upon ambient temperature. The sources of conventional fuels is decreasing therefore increasing in the cost of fuels in India and all over the world, we need to do some research on converse of another source of energy. As we can see that the people in India use personal two wheeler vehicles to travel small distances, therefore the traffic problems in India is increasing very fast. To avoid we have to made very compact and environment friendly vehicle. Aim of present study is to learn about different types of alternative energy sources to run a bicycle & try to find some new idea in improving electric bicycle. A power assisted bicycle is form of transport system that attempts to merge both health and environmental benefit. Cleaner technology as well as lesser dependency on oils. It is very important that the time taken for travelling should be less, also it should be economical & easily available. This feature performs better than gasoline vehicles. It is very useful to travel small distance to moderate distances. We are going to prepare bicycle which is operated by BLDC (Brushless DC Motor) hub motor based electric propulsions. The Lop fit is a totally new way of moving. With the electric assist it takes no more effort to walk than "a walk in a park". The electric assist in combination with the gear is boosting your walking pace up to the speed of a regular bike. Such vehicle cost around $2495.00 [USD]. We have planned to make the vehicle similar to this kind of vehicle and reduce the maximum possible cost. We have planned to make a vehicle which will be compact enough equal to small kids bicycles having a standing and sitting platforms suitable for accommodate one person.
