An electric motor-assisted bicycle includes a vehicle body motion sensor to detect a change in an attitude of a vehicle body relative to a road surface, a torque sensor to detect a pedal force on a pedal, a motor to generate an assist force to be added to the pedal force, a motor controller configured or programmed to control the assist force applied by the motor depending on the pedal force, and a sharp-curve-traveling detector to detect that the electric motor-assisted bicycle is traveling along a sharp curve with the vehicle body tilted relative to its upright state to the left or the right. The motor controller is configured or programmed to control the assist force depending on the detection result from the sharp-curve-traveling detector.
