As a representative of modern urban green travel, the design of electric bicycles should not only pay attention to power and endurance, but also take into account the comfort and 

practicality of riders. As an important part of electric bicycle, foot rest design directly affects the rider's posture and comfort. This article will explore the evolution of e-bike footrest 

design, the latest design trends, and how they can enhance the riding experience and make e-bikes a more user-friendly means of travel.

1. The importance of foot rest design

The design of foot rests is not only related to the support and relaxation of the legs during riding, but also affects the handling stability of the vehicle. Reasonable design can help riders 

maintain the correct sitting position, reduce the fatigue of a long ride, and quickly change the riding position when needed to improve the ability to cope with complex road conditions.

increasing practicality, to meet the needs of riders in different scenarios.

4. Enhance the riding experience
