e-bikes are just super fun to use
Have other people had good experiences using these in Canada?
They’re everywhere in Vancouver. It’s probably better biking weather now than it is most of the summer.
But biking in the snow should not actually be a problem in Canada. It apparently used to be very common. See this video: Not Just Bikes - Why Canadians Can’t bike in the Winter (but Finnish people can)
I’ve seen them around, even in the middle of Prairie nowhere. Not in the winter much though. I haven’t gotten the chance to try myself.
why not both?
I guess it makes sense. They’re lighter and go slower, and not as big of an investment as a car.
These are also filling up land fills!
ebikes are filling up land fills? Show me where and I’ll go and salvage them
Yeah, I’d expect they’re mostly recyclable as scrap, and the batteries are full of valuable cobalt that will become more and more recyclable as facilities are built out to extract it.
