How do you feel about a low cost moped instead of an ebike?. Or would you always prefer the quieter "eco friendly" ebikes?
This is an example of what's possible today:
I know, not exactly pretty
...but I think with a little more work a moped could be made to look like a regular bike. and the one above only costs £380!
The link is here.
I've come to the conclusion that ebikes are never going to be as powerful as a combustion engine and so I'd quite like to see the law changed to allow for low powered engined bikes. If this where to happen then engine designers would have the incentive to make even more specialized compact and quieter engines for bicycles.
So if you'd like a filthy little moped then there's a petition over here:
