My local bike shop ran out of bike models due to the supply chain issues and the only bikes available were e-bikes. Add to this that e-bikes have much higher revenue/margin - most bike shops are converting shop space to sell e-bikes. I wonder if this contributed to e-bike sales?
Also I know a bunch of people waiting for legislation to promote EVs (ie, extend the tax credit) all year (may never happen).

If the ebike tax credit or bike commuter benefits end up becoming law in the next few months, I'm almost definitely going to buy an ebike.
