E-bikes are becoming e-waste – here’s how to reduce the environmentalΒ cost | CiTTi Magazine Electric bike batteries can be particularly dangerous and trickyΒ toΒ dispose of.Electric e-bikes make cycling easier, faster and more accessible. They are already playing an important role in red

E-bikes cut emissions but create battery waste. Poor design, repair limits, and weak regulation worsen the issue.

Black Cycling Clubs: 'We Just Want a Safe Place to Park Our Bikes' - Streetsblog New York City Leaving a bike on the sidewalk overnight or while at work often results in a missing tire or gearset, but for most of us, it’s only a matter of time until the entire frame disappears.

"Nationally, half of all Black people say that secure bike parking will allow us to ride more often. Locally, in a densely populated city where a quarter of households report losing at least one bike to theft, the figure is sure to be much higher. Secure parking makes cycling accessible."
