    Ebikes have arguably been one of the biggest boons to cycling in general. Many people who often wouldn’t have cycled at all are now getting on bikes, and many more people who would have taken a car for a particular trip due to distance or hills are now also taking their ebikes instead.

    Ebikes have probably gotten more people riding bikes than anything else on the list.

      Need to add, class1 pedelec with a cap at 25 kmph are fine. The 32 kmph US versions ones are already questionable.

      However throttle assist ebikes are a menace.
