18 days agoI have a license to operate a scooter from where I live, and I really believe that past a certain point - like ⅓HP and 15MPH of European standards, know-how of the roads is a must Having said that the problem is registering an E-Bike can add too much cost to the bike itself. Motors and control systems can be imported from China for pennies now compared to the registry. And I can see first hand that bigger e-bikes are non-existent in the market as an aspiring commuter wouldn’t know how crap ⅓HP motors can get on hilly roads, so they buy those unintentionally.
Weird cuz Reddit was the most anti AI place I’ve been
