You can't take an e-bike on many transit systems. You can't go meet somebody and go walk with them to another location. Rental micromobility is very convenient for those kinds of things.
They don't replace a car or a bike, what they replace is the walk from the train station.
- iAMkenough 3y agoI'm curious about this. My transit system doesn't differentiate e-bikes and regular bikes. I'm not sure why they would.
- FpUser 3y agoSame here. However many e-bikes are very heavy and not everyone can lift those to place on bike rack of a bus for example.
- FpUser 3y ago>"You can't take an e-bike on many transit systems. You can't go meet somebody and go walk with them to another location." e-bike is somewhat limited in this particular usage. I mostly ride EUC though and that thing can go as fast as a car in the city and since it is so compact I have no problem taking it into any place - store, client's office, coffee shop etc. etc. So unless there is adverse weather, need to bring loads of stuff from A to B EUC replaces everything for me.
