why haven't e-bikes revolutionized commuting yet? you could probably ride these on the highway if you were determined enough

They revolutionized robbery so theyre already a smashing success. Pun intended.

They're a big deal in places with safe bicycle infrastructure but in most places biking is a death wish thanks to cars

for some they have and yes in some places using them on the highway is fine if theres a good shoulder, although you're not allowed in interstates near and inside of cities of course.

i think they are pretty gay though.

bikes are for browns
simple as

hey what if you're commute was way longer and way shittier?

No thanks

This. My city has em all over the place. Walkable and bikeable as hell. You'd think the delivery drivers on these things are fucking suicidal though with how they drive them (yes they're brown, why do you ask?).

The best part about them is they allow escape into a place that is ideally not monitored by cameras, and then the user switches his cars plates, hops in a drives away.

In fact didnt Luigi use one of them from memory, after his attack?

in your country: because niggers
in my country: because weather

i ride mine 20 miles roundtrip to town for supplies year round

If it does not reach a street legal highway speed, it is not safe nor legal to use on the highway. If you don't have a street legal vehicle, you can't travel freely except by bus or train. To be honest I am tempted to buy a greyhound ticket to a land reservation and just live there. Maybe I can build a mosque with the permission of the community rather than buy private land with money that will never seem to materialize.

get crushed by weed nigger and then dad talks about forgiveness

Unfortunately it's true and if we did have infrastructure you could make bank doing gig work/delivery. The way it is now, to properly cover your car for gig work requires a commercial driver's license, there are some plans out there but they all play games with liability and IF X then Y coverage. Once you account for wear tear, gas, commercial insurance, gig work becomes unprofitable.

If I need an internet connection to ride a bicycle then I do not need a bicycle.

this everyone who gets a bike has it stolen within a month. nonwhites literally ruin any sort of commuting

Socioeconomic factors. Bikes are easy to steal.

Maybe I can build a mosque

Maybe you can get gassed

I would love to ride my bike to work, but I simply don't trust drunk Mexicans and texting women not to end my life. I'm sorry, but I'm not going down without doing a whole lot of strategic damage to judea first.

Commuting everywhere with a bike makes your legs , specifically ancles and feet extremely weak.
It is better to use publication c transport for health.

In my country they made any that go too fast as illegal

stupid

well they would, wouldnt they

Where did bikes originate?

They revolutionized robbery so theyre already a smashing success.

I use just a normal bike and most of the people i see riding e-bikes are fat slobs.

it's no faster than a scooter

you country is completely flat, why would you need an electric bike?

Niggers and Spics.

lol it is not, and even if was, why would you need electric bikes? You too fat to stand on the pedals and let your body weight do the work?

This nigger is glowing

Literally the opposite. Walking and biking is the European's preferred method of traversal. Cars are for browns.

In the US most places don't have bike lanes so you have to ride in the lane with cars, which is a death wish except for on low-speed residential roads. Also niggers will steal your bike.

t. expensive e-mtb owner

i love my ebike
but they're good for riding around on the weekends for fun
they're not good driving to work because rain and cold weather exists. this is why we have cars
different jobs, different tools, i dont hammer in nails with a pair of pliers either

They are useless, you can't unlock them.

you use one?

all those replies about bike lanes not existing in a sufficient capacity

Why not drive (relatively slowly, 25 km/h and slower) on the sidewalk as if it was a normal bike and get off it when crossing the road? Is that not how you're supposed to bike in cities without dedicated infrastructure?

no. riding on the pavement is gay and annoying. just stay in the edge and watch what you're doing. ive been doing that for 25 years. only had one asshole (a bus driver in the UK) try to fuck with me and just hopped up onto the pavement to avoid getting murdered.

You're far better off with pic related. Royal Enfield is the one thing that jeets actually do well that's not illegal. Why bother with an e-bike?

annoying

Just don't be a dick? Keep a good distance from pedestrians, slow down if you see a big/wide group and get off the bike if it gets particularly congested until people clear up.

The KTM 390's are also pretty good.
but motorcycle ownership in the US is weird. I got a writeup from my HOA over my bike living outside on my own driveway under a cover rather than inside a garage.

It's not about getting richer, it's about making others poorer!

What you got ain't nothing new.
People used to ride these before they could own cars. But now they can own cars.

They have in my area. There’s a 40 mile trail that tasks you to a few of the tech hubs.

you're forever slowing down, stopping from cross streets, dodging people, watching for people coming out of stores etc etc etc. its absolutely not a problem to just ride on the side of the road about a foot off the curb. in the UK the pavements are nearly always too narrow for riding on it with people anyway and you will end up hitting someone, especially as you will come up from behind all the time since you're moving faster. its gay and annoying for everyone to ride on the pavement. trust me, ive annoyed my fair share of people even just occasionally doing to avoid a busy round about or something.

those are very efficient. great if you're just using it around a smaller town or live outside of one and need to get in quickly.
