The study created three groups from the general populations; e-bikers, cyclists and non-cyclists. They then looked at which of the three groups had more exercise. That is a correlation study and as with all correlation studies done in history, correlation does not mean causation. I do agree that the title is wrong, but maybe for a different reason. E-bike riders don't get more exercise than bikers. E-bike riders have more exercise than bikers on average. The theory of the study is that E-bike riders on average uses their bike more often than cyclists, and thus they get more exercise. What the study does not say is that e-bikes are the best method for exercise.
