The article talks about trying to fulfill all requisites for all the vehicle buyers. A bike indeed a fast, safe commute vehicle in many cases. On snow conditions, a lightweight vehicle with winter tires will be better than anything else. In that case, forget the bike!
- pif 7y ago> In that case, forget the bike! That's exactly my point. I thought several times to switch to a motorbike in order to avoid the hassle of traffic, but in the end I decided to stick to car: in normal days, traffic is allievated enough by all the other lovely guys who decide to ride their (motor)bikes; on the worst days (snow), I'd be in a car anyway. I see no point in buying a motorbike just to avoid traffic if it gets useless exactly when I'd need it most!
- bambax 7y agoA motorbike is expensive; an electric bike, depending on how you acquire it, isn't, and therefore you can have one in addition to a car. I built mine from a regular bike and a Chinese Bafang motor, and the cost was around €800 (excluding the bike -- an additional €350 if you need to buy one new).
