    Nice! Now where do you park them? They’re banned from being parked indoors or in garages in many locations, because of battery fires and explosions…

      First solve your HOA issue. There’s way more places without such stupid law and you should fixate your annoyance on your government and HOA instead of a transportation tool.

        Did I say anything about HOA? I’m referring to apartments. As if someone that owns a home would actually shame themselves by riding an electric bicycle when they can get a Tesla.

          Ahh, car brain, defensive as always, never consider the alternative. Have a nice day…in a traffic jam.

            Obviously you don’t know me or my presence online. I don’t own a vehicle and haven’t owned a vehicle since 2015. I’m a proud BMX flatland rider, thank you very much.

            Goodbye.

                Wrong. What if I wanted to get an electric bike? Only to find I can’t park it inside my apartment?

                That’s the point dummy.

                You’ve made no attempt to answer my original question, you’ve only spit out “car brain” at someone that hasn’t owned a car in almost a decade.

                I only brought up Tesla owners because they can actually afford a house. People on electric bikes can probably barely afford an apartment.

                Get real with your assumptions and nonsense.

                  sign

                  I really can’t be bothered with people with such aggressive tone trying to proof an issue someone already solved out there.

                    Perhaps consider leaving out unecessary provocations such as “Ahh, car brain, defensive as always, never consider the alternative.” and maybe the replies you’re getting would then be more polite aswell.

      In Finland you’re allowed to park mopeds where ever you’re allowed to park bikes aswell (as long as it’s outdoors)

      When I was 15 and had my 50cc scooter I remember the 5 litre gasoline tank lasting me about a week. Yeah it’s still burning fossil fuels but at that rate the emissions are quite insignificant. Being 4-stroke it was quiet too and didn’t make my clothes smell like exhaust fumes.

        Fair enough. Where I’m at on the Gulf Coast in the USA, there’s like absolutely nowhere to park bikes outside, other than trying to find a sign or a pole or tree that’s out of the way to lock it up to.

        And even then, you wouldn’t want to lock an ebike up overnight outside, someone eventually will come along and cut the lock and steal it. ☹️
