\n The Short Answer <\/p>\n \n

\n <\/div>\n <\/header>\n \n
\n

There is no universally accepted name for non-electric bikes, but some suggestions include “acoustic bike,” “analog bike,” “traditional bike,” “push bike,” and “normal bike.” Each term has its pros and cons, but ultimately, it’s up to personal preference.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s no secret that electric bikes are surging in popularity as they become more common on the streets, the cost of them comes down, and their benefits are very widely publicised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Commuters, hobby riders, long-distance trekkers and mountain bikers alike can all find benefits in electric bikes, whether that\u2019s reducing the effort required on a ride, gaining speed and efficiency, or simply having a lower-effort, eco-friendly mode of transport<\/a> to replace a car on shorter journeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Naysayers might ask if riding an e-bike is cheating<\/a> when compared to a normal bike, but many would argue that they serve a different or supplementary purpose to push bikes. They can go faster<\/a> with less effort \u2014 but only up to a certain legally-specified limit to ensure their safety \u2014 and add an extra push of power that can help you tackle hills and rough terrain with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

The argument around whether electric bikes are worth it<\/a> when compared to acoustic bicycles will, I\u2019m sure, continue for many years to come, as valid concerns about how likely they are to get stolen<\/a> are raised against those arguing for their environmental benefits and how great e-bikes are at getting people into cycling by offering them an option for a less laborious pedal-powered vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, those who have been reading these first paragraphs closely will notice that I\u2019ve used a variety of quirky terms to refer to non-electric bikes. The truth is, there isn\u2019t really one term people use to refer to non-electric bikes, so we often have to get creative when discussing the two types of bike in the same breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While many just stick to \u2018bike\u2019 when referring to non-electric bikes (after all, we didn\u2019t stop calling it \u2018mail\u2019 after email was invented!), we think there might be a more fun way to talk about your traditional, purely pedal-powered two-wheeler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s dive into some of the potential names for non-electric bikes, and debate which one we think is the best.<\/p>\n\n\n

What is a Non-Electric Bike Called?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The truth is, there\u2019s no one name used to refer to non-electric bikes. It\u2019s simple enough just to call them \u2018bikes\u2019 \u2014 as that\u2019s what they are. They were around first, and who are we to argue that their name should be changed just because a fancy new kind has come along?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, to be honest, we are going to argue that, just because it\u2019s more fun to give them a new name and will make writing about the differences between e-bikes and bikes simpler and more interesting. (See? It sounds rubbish when you say \u2018e-bikes and bikes\u2019.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some in the industry like the term \u2018acoustic bicycle\u2019, referring to the difference between electric guitars and acoustic guitars. Others have suggested \u2018m-bike\u2019, as in mechanical bike or manual bike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the moment, there\u2019s no catch-all term for non-electric bikes, so we can have a bit of fun deciding which we prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Does “Acoustic Bicycle” Mean?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The term \u2018acoustic bicycle\u2019 is used to refer to non-electric bicycles – that is, bikes that only use pedal power to move, with no assistance from an electric motor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s one of the favoured terms for non-electric bikes in the bike industry<\/a>, as it plays off the idea of electric guitars vs acoustic guitars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next up, we\u2019ll go through some of the common suggestions for alternative names for non-electric bicycles, discussing their pros and cons \u2014 and we\u2019ll leave it up to you to decide which name you\u2019d like to adopt, if any.<\/p>\n\n\n

Alternative Names for Non-Electric Bicycles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Acoustic Bike<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As I mentioned in the previous section, \u2018acoustic bike\u2019 is a preferred term for non-electric bicycles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, I don\u2019t think it sounds quite right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The logic behind the name is inspired by electric and acoustic guitars, but that\u2019s maybe not the right comparison to draw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the word \u2018acoustic\u2019 relates to sound or the sense of hearing, which is why it makes sense for acoustic guitars to be named as such \u2014 the sound of the guitar comes from the instrument itself, not from the instrument being amplified by an external, electric device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But is this really applicable to non-electric bicycles, which have little if anything to do with sound?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you like this term, go ahead and use it! I just think there might be a better name out there for non-electric bikes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analog Bike<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Analog bike\u2019 is quite a good term, in my opinion, for non-electric bikes. It is reminiscent of analog versus digital clocks, one being the new electricity powered version, and the other powered by its own mechanical cogs and wheels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Google, one definition for analog is \u201cnot involving or relating to the use of computer technology, as a contrast to a digital counterpart\u201d \u2014 which is exactly what a non-electric bike is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditional Bike<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps the most logical first choice for naming a non-electric bike, \u2018traditional bike\u2019 does what it says on the tin. After all, a purely pedal-powered bicycle is the traditional version, before even motorbikes, let alone e-bikes, came along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe I\u2019m overthinking it, but I think there\u2019s something a bit dry and stuffy about the term \u2018traditional bike\u2019. It makes me think of non-electric bikes as being tired, old and almost defunct, having been replaced by the new-fashioned electric bike, which they most certainly are not.<\/p>\n\n\n

Push Bike<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Push bike\u2019 is quite a common name for non-electric bikes, and one that has been used for a while to draw the distinction between motorbikes and bicycles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It evokes the idea of the pushing of the pedals to power the bicycle, which is a very logical connection to draw, and makes it clear that this is a bike you power with your own muscles and strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Normal Bike<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Finally, \u2018normal bike\u2019. I think this has been my go-to name for non-electric bikes, just because it\u2019s simple – but it does have two major flaws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, it makes non-electric bikes sound a bit boring, in the same way that the name \u2018traditional bike\u2019 does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey\u2019re just normal, nothing special about them, plain old normal bikes,\u201d you can almost hear the critics saying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the flip-side, they also make electric bikes sound weird, like they\u2019re not widely accepted and fantastic for their own reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s an easy and logical name, for sure, but is it the right one?<\/p>\n\n\n
