    Apparently a fancy lightweight aluminium frame regular bike can be worse in terms of resources used for producing it, compared to a regular ebike with a steel frame. I guess this also counts for titanium and carbon-fiber frames.

      I mean, i guess, but there are aluminium, carbon and titanium ebikes too.

      I like that ebikes get people out of their cars, and they also get a whole different demographic riding, which in turn - at least i have the hope - will lead to way broader parts of society wanting better infra.
