Cheaper. An electric scooter is perhaps $100; an e-bike is often 4+. Oddly though, Jump is actually cheaper than Lime once you ride for over 7 minutes.. perhaps that would change.
Another slight advantage is lower weight (obstacles), though in practice this is unlikely to be a major issue.
Otherwise I agree that an e-bike is superior. I prefer the GoBike e-bikes to Lime/Bird.

- zootam 8y agoNope, they are around $300-500 https://qz.com/1257198/xiaomi-makes-the-bird-and-spin-scooters-taking-over-san-francisco/ https://qz.com/1257198/xiaomi-makes-the-bird-and-spin-scoote...
- zootam 8y agoShow me a decent ebike you can get for $400! Most batteries alone are $150-400. Buying a cheap generic spec ebike is around $900-$1400
