If you actually use your e-bike to displace gasoline consumption, thats probably a significant net positive on inflation. So much of this has been driven by high energy prices.

I wont. I live in the burbs of a major city and don't feel safe riding on the street where cars travel 45mph.

US just isn't very bike friendly in general. I mostly want to use the ebike to make my rides longer.

Yeah that’s understandable, US road design is insane.

Im glad I live in a place where biking is taken seriously (even if there is plenty of room for improvement in the infrastructure)
