My only problem with ebikes is there's no chance in hell I'm consistently driving on the road with cars.
With how convenient these are, I hope there's more push to add protected bike lanes in road heavy places to increase adoption.
Looks like your problem is not with ebikes, but your city's infrastructure.
It is, and we have some of the best in the country at that. It's just takes a long time to make a place meant for cars into meant for bikes
We aren't no Netherlands.
