  2. I prefer my electric motorbike because I focus more on the maneuverability and surroundings, which is important considering my mostly urban routes where there's already plenty of noise. I come from having pedaled on two wheels solo since my teenage years so I defend myself through wide area awareness and prediction, never assuming anyone sees or hears me coming.

  4. Motorized unpedaled bikes of any power have unique dynamics that demands specific training, hence why it's a separate endorsement on a driver's license. Chinese e-bikes are heavily nerfed because most riders don't take that training (and the Chinese government ironically isn't that forceful about useful education like two-wheeler courses), and it shows how amateur and unpredictable they are when you ride among them like I have the last couple years.
