Do you have an eBike that you don’t ride? Is it too heavy to pedal without electric assist? Do you experience flats? Broken spokes? Can you load your bike on a rack? If you fall and your bike lands on you, can you lift it off without help? Heavy bikes are a drag Unfortunately, bargain eBikes sold by well-known retailers tend to be heavy.
