The present disclosure relates to a control method for regulating the electric motor of an electric bicycle for push assistance for the electric bicycle. The control method comprises identification of activation of the push assistance by the cyclist. When activation is identified, the electric motor generates a torque for driving the electric bicycle as push assistance. Subsequently, an acceleration by the electric bicycle in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the electric bicycle is captured by means of a first sensor, wherein the acceleration results on the basis of a manual pushing or braking force of the cyclist. The captured acceleration is compared with an acceleration threshold value in a further step, wherein, in the event of the acceleration threshold value being exceeded, the electric motor is regulated on the basis of a change in the captured acceleration to adapt the torque.
