Hi - At the outset, I should state, that I would not buy a bicycle with an electric motor.
I am not without experience in the world of electric vehicles (known as EVs in some circles). I think EVs are here to stay. I invested in Tesla. I currently drive a Nissan Leaf. I don't think a Leaf is realistic for more than a "go-to-the-grocery/around town car". I do not think eBikes have as much draw as EVs today. Possibly because so many people are terrified of entering traffic without their "cage" around them.
