The greatest complaint I've seen in the ebike space is repairs and maintenance. Specifically, many of these new bikes use nonstandard components requiring specialized tools and trained techs. It's not a bike you can bring to your average bike shop to get serviced. This article failed to mention anything about this important consideration apart from a bit about the drivetrain.

Those prices were going to go up anyway. They've been doing so for years before and after that credit.

This is a reflection of big budgets for games growing over time. Customers demand more, costs go up.

History has proven time and time again that this is the worst possible way to do that. Israel is either stupid or is acting intentionally with another purpose.

Just a reminder that unsustainable world population growth is bad. Fewer people is good for everyone and our planet.
