    Fuck yes ebikes!

    Not only do they slash oil demand, but manufacturing and maintaining an ebike has a fraction of the environmental impact of an electric car. Also, you can do a lot of the maintenance yourself with cheap tools and a small amount of work space. Also also, makes my ass look good~🍑

      Also, unironically, e-bikes are more fun than cars. You feel the acceleration much more on a bike than a car despite moving slower, and the breeze going by you feels pretty nice too.

      Not to mention a lot less likely to kill someone.

        I remember the first time I went about 30 mph on my conventional bike down a hill. I had so much fun, I went up the short hill again!

        I'm graduating soon and plan to reward myself with something pricey. An e-bike is a strong contender because I hate driving my car as much as I do.

    I have an ebike, and I really want an electric scooter/bike once the range can be improved, currently they couldn't get me to and from work (it's a long commute)
