    We have bike thieves up here, but it's usually cut and run, while you're sitting in a coffee shop. I have been looking at an e-bike, but scared it'll get stolen.

    Then sell them and make a profit. Do you really need 2? (Of course the answer is always yes)

    Actually I have 3 eBike

    I have visitors occasionally so 3 can ride

    I also have a variety of pedal bikes

    One is a folder that fits nearly any tiny person

    and a 3 wheeler as I love riding them

    Just more 'Hobby', one I have had since child

    I never worry about HOBBY profit, as it is very rare

    Re: Ebike?

    What about a Segway? Are they still a thing?

    Why not a full-on electric trail bike?

    A Golf Cart?

    There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!

    Electric trail bikes are getting more and more useful here in the Northwest at least. About once a year a remote road is washed out so vehicles can longer access it, if you can get a bike around the washout though you often have the entire area to yourself (or at least vastly reduced crowds). Some National Park roads have been washed out for years with probably no hope of ever re-opening to vehicles, but on a bike you are golden. On an e-bike even better because some of these roads are seriously steep (1000 feet / per mile or more..)
