Why choose an ebike LCD display over an LED display?
Current speed, remaining mileage and, in some cases, even current position – your e bike display will show you all kinds of information. But what types of ebike displays are available? And what exactly can a digital command center do when you’re out and about? We’ll answer these and other questions in this blog post.
The Importance of Displays
Small and unassuming, but so important. In recent years, the display screen has become an essential companion for all e-bike riders. The screen is now vital to any e-bike and in many ways, it plays the role that a speedometer does in a car. The reason for this is simple: the e-bike display not only provides an overview of all riding data at all times, but also allows you to check the functionality of your e-bike. In many ways, the display is the command center of the e-bike. Depending on the manufacturer, you can also set the desired riding mode or check the current range. But please note: not all e-bikes have the same display. Therefore, we have listed the most important features and functions of e-bike displays in detail below.
How do e-bike displays work?
But before we discuss the various display types and their functions, let’s first look at the basic technical design of e-bike displays. In principle, the LED display on an e-bike replaces conventional display aids on a bicycle, such as a bicycle computer, and enables cycling data to be displayed digitally. Like a bicycle computer, an e-bike display consists of a housing and a screen. Depending on the model, the shape, size and screen size of the display may vary. These features are also not always the same, e.g. in terms of resolution or processing quality. For example, current e-bike displays are made of scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass and are therefore particularly robust.
Depending on the manufacturer, there are of course other unique selling points and features. In any case, however, the display always acts as an extension component for the drive and is therefore usually supplied by the drive manufacturer. All manufacturers have one thing in common: e-bike displays are almost always mounted on the handlebars. They are usually supplemented by a so-called handlebar remote control, often referred to as a remote control. It can be used to adjust the various motor assist levels or to activate the boost function for short-term enhancement of additional power (if supplied by the respective manufacturer). Some models are also equipped with a touch screen that combines the display and the control panel.
What types of e-bike displays are available?
This also depends entirely on the drive manufacturer. In principle, however, there are two types of e-bike displays on the market: compact e-bike displays, which are small and lightweight and display basic data, and large color displays, which show a wide range of data in a very comprehensive and clear Modality. Both types of displays have their advantages: compact displays reduce weight and create space for handlebars, while large displays offer more features and more control. Which monitor is best for you depends entirely on what kind of cyclist you are. For example, for a sporty mountain e-biker who enjoys riding on rough terrain, we recommend a more compact display, while a touring rider may enjoy the convenience of a larger display.

What features do e-bike displays have?
Now that we know the different display types, let’s take a closer look at the functions of each. The display on the handlebars shows speed, battery level, pedal assist, time, current temperature, navigation and many other features. This will keep you up to date with all the information you need to know along the way and make your e-bike journey easier. However, many eBike displays have more detailed features that are almost identical to those found on professional GPS bike computers. For ebike displays, these include additional display values such as calorie consumption, current performance, temperature display, pedaling frequency, and an altimeter with hill and incline display.
A notable feature is the mileage prediction, which most modern e-bikes have a mileage indicator. This will tell you how many kilometers you can travel on your current battery charge. Depending on the manufacturer, this can be done either by a direct mileage indicator on the display or by an LED light on the bike.
What can I do if my e-bike display is defective?
Does your e-bike display no longer work properly? Then we recommend that you visit your nearest specialized dealer and get customer support. The dealer can then determine exactly what the problem is.
Why choose an e-bike LCD display
You may not think it’s worth it, or you may even think it’s unnecessary. First of all, it will not affect the drivability of your e-bike in any way. No matter which display you choose, your e-bike will still operate the way it was designed to. This may be your deciding factor, but there are more.
The LCD display will provide you with your current speed, average speed, maximum speed, percentage of battery remaining, clock, total distance, and distance per trip. You can also select the assist level for the pedal assist sensor. Additionally, you can install a headlight and control it via the LCD display. Last but not least, the LCD display is capable of providing any error codes. Each code is referenced in the user manual. These are some of the features of the LCD display. Although we don’t include a physical copy of the LCD user manual in our kits, we will email you a digital version upon request so that you can check everything it has to offer. It’s definitely worth a try.
Conclusion
The multitude of features and controls offered by the LCD display are clearly an invaluable asset to any e-bike enthusiast. Whether you are a daily commuter, an adventurous rider or a fitness enthusiast, the LCD display will enhance your riding experience by keeping you informed and in control.
