So I impulse bought a 1000w 20Ah moped-style e-bike 'bout a week ago. I'm surprised by how fun it is.
I'd never owned a motorcycle or anything similar, or even driven one before. One of the first things I did was take a spill, ofc, but luckily I was at a stop. I adopted a dog from the human society a week ago, and ordered this bike, and we've been out riding the trails together the last few days. Sometimes the neighbor's dog joins us, and we go out into this huge empty field in the desert and roam around, there's cows and horses who wander out there we sometimes find. It's great.
it's got 5 speeds with pedal assistance. I'm usually on speed 2 and I like to pedal, so after 12 miles my bike's battery is still at 100% charged. I'd have no problem driving it into town and back, and even though it has a motor, I think it's street-legal without a registration because it's an actual bicycle, too. It's extremely easy to pedal, also, about the same amount of resistance as an exercise bike.
It's sparked an interest, big time. I basically have no choice now but save to buy a real electric motorcycle, like the Eahora M1 Knight. They really are so cool, the way you just glide along, how quiet the motor is with no engine. It just seems to me like electric motorcycles make more sense and have much more potential than electric cars.
Plus, have you seen the design of the Tesla CYBERTRUCK? Everything about it, including the name, is just goofy and it looks like it a 'johny cab' from the og Total Recall, except less stylish. Kinda embarrassing that such a featureless, boring design is 'state-of-the-art'. Nothing about it is artistic, lol. The e-bike I got, though, was def worth the $650 I paid for it.
