Abstract

A method for controlling an electric motor of an electric bicycle for driving the electric bicycle. The method includes: detecting a longitudinal acceleration of the electric bicycle in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the electric bicycle; and generating a motor torque with the aid of the electric motor as a function of the detected longitudinal acceleration, the motor torque being adapted until a predefined setpoint acceleration is reached or exceeded or undershot.
