Video: Why Did Amflow Build Two Almost Identical E-Bikes?

Surrons are illegal to use on trails in much of the world. And getting there would mean either transporting a motorcycle or riding it to the trails (therefore meaning it would have to be road legal, which in the UK and Europe means it would have to be compliant and insured).

I think the issue is that this is an ad dressed up as an article, but really it could've been a single sentence. It's the epitome of "this meeting could've been an email".

@alis66: moral or morale? I can work with either but I need to know what to yell at the person I'm beating.

@ATXZJ: *couldn't care less. If you could care less that means you do in fact care to some extent.

You've been called out before for thinking being able to afford an bike is a flex.

Review: Pivot Shuttle LT - Adjustable Everything

@Jtstar: See here you are jumping in to respond to someone defending ebikes, where are your comments towards the anti-ebike crowd if you're so above the debate and just around for the lulz?

@Jtstar: And I think you already know that's a completely disingenuous response, but I will help you out in this case too. Firstly you don't speak for him (unless there's something you're not telling us), and you've now undermined any reply he would have made. But you're wrong, there is no throttle on an ebike. A throttle, by definition, does not require any power input from the user and powers the bike completely independently other than being activated. Ebikes use pedal assist systems which amplify user power input. You can pretend you've elevated yourself above it as much as you like but you just jumped in and made the exact incorrect assertions that the anti eeb crowd make.

@sofakingwetarded: So you don't think eBIKES are bikes? Interesting assertion. Please tell us more. I'll caveat that they do not share any similarity whatsoever with motorcycles, electric or internal combustion, but I'm sure you weren't going to say something that silly.

@CustardCountry: You're right, two show up on their website but one entry is blank and one is a company that went into administration in June.
