Increasing demand for non polluting mechanised transportation has revived the use of electric power for personal transportation and reduced reliance on automobiles .A low cost alternative to an automobile is a bicycle.This report describes the design of an electric assisted bicycle that will extend the range of a typical rider . The system consist of three source of power .The human effort of rider pedalling bicycle,electric motor,12V lead battery,solar panel that can charge the battery.The power module is controlled by microprocessor. The power control module on the motor will reverse the current in the motor if speed of bicycle is more than desired speed .the final system has features that will appeal to broad spectrum of users. All these features of design is within a cost range of $500
