Flashback to 1996 - - Remember the Sparrow?
Electric tech is rapidly advancing in bikes.
Got an electric bike 4 years ago= FUN!
goes 20 miles
-without pedaling- @ full speed (20mph).
many more miles range when I 'assist' by pedaling.
Still have to put up with sneering road bike douches who
call out while I pass them up hills,
"you're cheating" (all the time)
Hopefully that attitude will evolve in a few years.
Great commuter, hot days are a joy, instead of sweatfest.
