@cybette Ebike tech looks like it is starting to get interesting: https://electrek.co/2021/08/31/radical-new-electric-bike-drive-systems-requires-no-chains-or-belts-entirely-ride-by-wire/ @vattuvarg
@jameshjacksonjr @cybette - An all-electric bike transmission could be combined with ultracapacitors. Regen would be more efficient and extra power could be on tap when needed. Capacitors also weigh far less than batteries.

I don't ride a bike, but I probably should, since my partner is in the e-bike business 😆
great to know that Rhode Island has excellent bike paths. sounds like a lovely place! would love to visit some time.
It's generally quite good in Finland as well. Although in the city centers nowadays there's too many e-scooters, which I don't like...
