I love biking but there are times where I need to get somewhere across town and I don’t feel like pedaling there and back.

In my town there are lots of inexpensive and rentable e-bikes. Very easy to use, not overly powerful or noisy. I see lots of people using them to go out or commute.

I’d like to get one of my own because the rentable ones have zero shock absorption.
