Former furniture maker turns his hand to eBikes to help improve people's lives (uk.news.yahoo.com)
An open source ebike? :mind-blowing:...
ADFC, German Die #Verkehrswende ist keine Sache allein für große Städte: Vor allem im ländlichen Raum gibt es Nachholbedarf.
👉 Gerade dort haben #eBikes ein enormes Potenzial, doch die Menschen sind mit der Radinfrastruktur unzufrieden und fühlen sich häufig nicht sicher.

An open source ebike? :mind-blowing:...
rowdypixel, I picked up a few cases of water at the store today. My trusty cargo #ebike got it all home easily. No car required.
enobacon, what's with the #eBike obsessed bot/"Name12345" accounts on the bird site lately? A bunch of them had the same cleavage-laden profile pics and links to "dating" sites, but some are just faceless and very into e-bikes?
ajamesgreen, Time to start introducing the bikes we have.
This trike style bike is popular in Denmark, can seat up four small children, and is extremely stable when stopped and at lower speeds. A two-wheeled bakfiets is a better option for speed.
jnbrgr, German Suche E-Bike Service im Raum Augsburg:
Kennt ihr eine Werkstatt oder eine/n fähigen Mechaniker/in, die/der einen Kundendienst (Bremsen, Kette, Antrieb usw.) für ein E-Bike Winora SX1 mit dem Antrieb TranzX M19QR/4/13/F im Raum Augsburg anbieten würde? Anscheinend traut sich nicht jede/r an das Modell ran.
Eine Empfehlung oder ein Tipp wäre super.

plantarum,
jbe, Since this was published today, on Father's Day, I'll note that almost every 2-3 trips I take to the grocery store via #ebike, a middle-aged or older man will walk up to me as I pack up my groceries and ask fascinated questions about how they work, how much they cost, and how convenient they are.
A lot of dads don't know it yet, but trust me: dads want ebikes.

The rules in Ontario, Canada are a bit of a confusing maze. What are the laws like in your locality?
jexner, 50km eBike ride this morning. It was too warm and dry for the fatbike. This is the view West up the Leymental. #eBike #BikeTooter #Fatbike
Cycling purists swear to me they will never get an e-bike, but when I show up on the Fiido C21, the sleek, lighter-weight e-bike changed some minds.
GoldenDenizen, By and far, I have the best convos with random seniors / older adults when I ride my converted e-cargo bike to GGP or a grocery store. (today was with someone's dad from SoCal who just visited the de Young)
They absolutely get it and have the best questions and convo topics. My cargo is not anything special and average at best.
If SF invests in better bike infra (aka PBLs), this important demographic could mode shift much easier. Aging in place is so much easier when you're not dependent on an automobile.
jgordon, The Specialized Tero eBike was made for 73yo men who are not cyclists.
This is a good thing.
#biking #gravelbike #aging #ebike
PS. The kickstand is essential. Do not buy without. Also, despite my praise, Specialized sucks. Their sale of app tracking data and the restriction of custom rack options to a $300 fender-rack combo are deplorable.
After Denver proved the popularity of e-bike rebates, Colorado is now the idea out for a spin.
These are the electric cargo bikes that caught my eye including the Tern HSD, Momentum PakYak, and more at E(Revolution) e-bike conference.
The Role of Electric Bikes and Scooters in the Micro-mobility Revolution - CityLife
After already releasing two eBikes, the famous car maker announced two new models at a price point only Porsche owners could likely afford.
British Columbians excited by the expanded rebate program to help them purchase an e-bike had to be quick to claim their money, as just the first 4,000 applicants had their rebates processed right away.
Micromobility Europe 2023 returned to Amsterdam with all of the most interesting e-bikes, e-scooters, and other personal transportation.
What makes an ebike an ebike to you? Pedals? No throttle? Weight limit? Style? Where would you like to see them draw the line?
concretedog, Another great afternoon #volunteering at Beics Ogwen a community bike workshop. Ian was teaching a member how to press fit new bearings whilst I serviced an older Marin and worked on a mid motor Trek #ebike conversion. #bikes
The best electric bikes at any price level? We've tested them all, and here are the best e-bikes for any budget and every type of rider.
When shopping for an ebike, here are three things to consider.
