    Are you fucking kidding?

    Targets? I lightheartedly suggest someone get an e-bike, and suddenly you think they’re a “target”?

    The fact that someone has a wife means that they can’t buy an e-bike on the off chance that they might have kids?

    Fuck, man. What the hell is wrong with you? What the hell is wrong with your country. People are so car-brained that merely light-heartedly suggesting an e-bike is considered an attack? You have some serious fucking issues.

      I have an e-bike adapted for carrying 2 kids that I use daily for kindergarten commute. Can’t recommend it enough. I live in Belgium though.

        Even if they don’t replace a car, they’re great vehicles. They’re fun to ride, you rarely have to worry about traffic jams, they’re cheap to operate, and you can do a lot of your own maintenance.

        Does yours have seats on the back? A trailer? I’ve seen a variety of solutions for transporting kids. The trailer is the solution I see most often, and it looks like the most luxurious option for the kids. They often look like they’re some aristocrat being carried on a palanquin, sprawled out and enjoying the ride.

      Well it turns out they do, in fact, have kids. Also maybe drink some water and chill a little.

        Who the fuck cares if they have kids. You’re allowed to own an ebike, even if you have kids.
