E-bikes aren’t cheap. But $2500 to $5000 is on the high end for one. Paying for the name, I guess.

PS- would be interested in how this compares weight-wise.

I have 2 elec hubmotor bicycles. The 20” i made myself for free.
And the 26” cost me $400 for the front wheel with hubmotor.
Former was clocked at 15mph. Latter 30mph. Both of which is faster than i care to slide on asphalt.

I have a $2500 E-Bike. I use it to commute to work on my 5 mile trip. It gets me to work faster than driving a car. If I could just figure out how to beat the rain issue. Ok to get wet going home, but not on way in. Also ebikes don’t like the rain. Wet = bad for electrical stuff.

It’s to make Greenies feel good about themselves so they can look down their noses as we blow by them at 95 MPH on our BIG GAS POWERED BIKES!.................
