Arguably to conflate road-legal kits with non-road-legal is similar to conflating manufactured e-bikes with converted e-bikes. Is the damage already too severe & is action urgent? I think so.

I'm doing my very best to avoid it. It is possible, but it's hard to convince people to turn their backs on something that, in theory, makes their lives easier.

A really good piece from #GCN here and especially the discussions at the end and the final point about needing some visions and plans - that really is the thing lacking in the UK.

Do I have any followers with a story about how an electric bike changed their life for the better? I'm looking for strong examples of how an e-bike made something previously unattainable, or hard, a possibility.
For a print magazine, so come prepared with your best head/bike shot!

It matters less if there is distance between rider and car I think, but up close, being tailed, it feels like it could be better to have than not to me. The integration into seatstay/dropout junctions is a half decent execution to keep it wider and distinct.

Some do now, but it's a small minority. Not an expensive upgrade to make, i suspect.

Few electric folding bikes can be custom-configured to your preferences from the paintjob, through to the fine detail of the build kit, but that's Velo de Ville's speciality.
The e-Foldy is noted for excellent handling, despite its 16-inch wheels.
