I used to be a gate keeping manual bike snob, but within a matter of weeks of getting an electric cargo bike I was converted to an eBike evangelist. They are just great sub-type of bike making cycling more accessible and easier to replace a car (at least in Northern Europe). Big fan… but of course I do still love getting silly on an all carbon racer!
