Lets be real, the selling point of this nonsense is that you can ride your electric motorcycle on a bike path and pretend it is a bike because it has pedals.

- Toutouxc 4y agoThere are lots of overpowered e-bikes with chain + gears, where the power going through the pedals is maybe 5 % of total power, and the rest is electric. This doesn't change or bring anything new to the table.
- jandrese 4y agoPersonally, I don't get the hate over people using e-bikes on bike trails. While I am still fully pedal powered I have no problem with other people using e-bikes. Especially if the alternative is for that person to drive somewhere in a car. Maybe in other areas people are doing 60kph on bike trails or something, but that's not what I see around me. They seem to top out around 20kph or so, which makes them basically just bikes as far as traffic flow is concerned. Sure they will zoom past you on the uphills, but who cares? It's not hurting me or anybody else.
