Its weird, because the city i live in as great bike infrastructure (except in the historical center, but paved roads are bad for bikes anyway). No issue at all with ebike, despite being like 5 ebike shop within 5 minutes of where i live (by bike obviously), and the city bikes are now ebikes too.

It might be because the bikes are capped at 25 kmh? I mean, its already faster than my average speed when i take a car to move stuff within the city (there is no traffic jam, the streets are just very narrow, with a lot of turns and pedestrians)
