Sometimes, it has to do with maintenance. If one handles the battery of their ebike roughly, there are chances that the battery won't last longer, unlike another rider that takes good care of the battery. This factor is a big one once ebike is concerned.

One of the biggest issues that e bikes are going to have is that of how long the battery is going to last when you are on your journey. For that reason, I think there are certain distances where you would need a car to reach and not necessary using your e-bike to embark on such a journey.

I don't stress myself shouting when the bells can do the work. Most times, when I am riding bikes, I use the bells to alert people to move out of the way.

I've seen a couple of events being organized online, but I've never taken it serious. I don't have the skills to take part in those racing events, but just like you mentioned, it will be an interesting idea if more of such happens globally.

I use more fat tyres on my ebike simply because of the landscape where I ride. I don't use using the normal ebike tyres will survive in this terrain for a month.

I wonder how I am going to react if ebikes are allowed to use horns. I get scared easily when I hear the sound of horns and letting ebike users put it on their bikes will surely frighten me if I am walking on the road.

I totally agree with you on that. Going above speed limits should be punished. It doesn't make any sense for those using ebikes to go above approved speeds while riding their bikes.

There are lots of us here. Ebikes is selling fast in my location and it has become a common means of transportation used by a lot of people here. So, I see other riders daily on my way to work.

I am not very good at doing a race with my ebike. I use it for various trips, but have not thought about using it for running a race with other riders. I am always scared that I might end up having an accident if I try such.

Wearing a helmet while riding a bike is very important. Yes, it might not be an ultimate protection against accidents on the road, but it can help reduce impact on the head should an accident occur?

I was once in a group where someone got an ebike as a gift from a friend who was residing in another country. He had to send the bike through courier service, and the benefactor was so happy. Currently, I am saving up to buy an ebike for my brother so it can help him save cost on transport while...

There are different challenges that one can encounter from riding an ebike, such as the bike developing battery issues or brake faults along the way and many others. Which one can you look back and say was your worst experience?

One thing that I've realised with having an ebike is that one ought to do regular servicing if the plan is to keep using it for a long time. This made me work on servicing my ebike at least once in 2 months. I don't know if it is too long, but I've had better success doing so. How often do you...

For those who currently own a fast charging ebike, how would you rate the experience so far? Was it a good decision to have paid more for a fast charging ebike, or do you regret making that decision in the first place?

I have always tried charging the ebike battery to a certain level before usage, and there was no time that I ever let him drop down to zero. Just this morning, I was imagining what is going to happen if the ebike battery level gets to 0%? Has it ever happened to you? What was the experience like?
