The dingbats sitting in the think tanks drawing fat paychecks, are targeting the young people and work on getting rid of them.

Just heard a push by Left Wing NPR on EV's and pushing E bikes, just go buy one and do your grocery shopping, SURE. we can place our grocery bags on our heads on top of our helmuts....none of the left news agencies EVER talk about the already crippled electric grids....nope just buy buy buy their EV's.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

And if you can't afford the high priced EV autos, just do a lease, easy peasy...

I had no clue about prices of E Bikes, so I checked amazon, piece of cake prices.

I hear that!!!!!

In China most people have an electric bike. I have ridden them a few times but don’t want one, I just find it there to be dangerous and I have many other transportation options that does not involve me using a vehicle.

Unlike most people, I am not down on electric vehicles. Both my stepson and nephew drive them (Tesla) and it is a nice, quiet vehicle with a very smooth ride. I wouldn’t mind having one if I knew how long a charge lasts and availability and time of charging said vehicle.

How well do you think E-Bikes are doing in the Netherlands, since that country has the world's best biking culture?

Yong Fang · 10-23-2023, 01:00 AM

Electric grids? Have no idea. I do know that the majority of bicycles are electric. Probably over 20 percent or more of cars are electric. The bike you can plug in to a wall socket overnight. Most people who have limited incomes have them.

I don’t know how a car is charged or how long a charge is good for, but I like Tesla at least. I like Elon Musk because he makes mad people I hate. Which is a good thing!

You oughta check into the power grid in that massive populated country. How about costs for the chinese people, here I'm reading the lowest price EV auto is about $51,000. Is there a huge rich population in China???

Yong Fang · 10-26-2023, 03:18 AM

I live in China and there are millions of E bikes. I don’t have one simply because I wouldn’t feel safe on one and there are many other inexpensive transportation options. People just charge the battery in a normal outlet at home. I have never heard of any problems or issues with those bikes.

Yesterday I took a three hour car ride in an electric car. Beautiful car, quiet, smooth ride. The person driving even charges it ar a station off the highway. I would be interested how far the car can go on a charge and how much it is.

I don’t know why everyone is so down on electric vehicles. I will tell the “climate change” crowd that electricity is generated by fossil fuels or nuclear so having all electric vehicles doesn’t change the dynamic much. But it is less polluting and technology will catch up and I think in the near future we will see cars that can drive a thousand miles or more on a charge. I think the haters are from the fossil fuels industry who fear of everyone having an electric car and them losing out.

Yong Fang:Only about 1.4+Billion population in China and you know about ALL ebikes????
