Anyway, I'm thinking of getting an e-bike or e-scooter.

The scooter is more portable. The bike probably handles bumps/cracks/minor potholes better.

I’d love to get an e-bike to ride to work but I’d die before I got there. -- nm - spamlet Aug 4, 12:05
E-bike! I'd suggest a cargo e-bike, but that's probably bulkier than you want. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 4, 11:52 1
- Depends on range. Bulkier = would deal with some of the pavement....unevenness...better likely but of course decrease range. -- nm - ty97 Aug 4, 12:00
See people rent those out for days on end. Must be costing a lot -- nm - budice Aug 4, 11:46 9
- I don't know the bike cost. The current best scooter (according to a friend who knows these things) is around 800-900 which pays for itself with time -- nm - ty97 Aug 4, 11:47 8
  - A decent e-bike will run you a few thousand. -- nm - spamlet Aug 4, 12:06 7
    - A decent ebike is basically a car replacement, so think of it as savings vs buying a new car - Beryllium Aug 4, 12:13
    - Why do you like giving me bad news. Go sit in the corner with David and listen to him ramble about something Falcons related. -- nm* - ty97 Aug 4, 12:08 5
      - WE NEED PASS RUSHERS!!! -- nm - David Aug 4, 12:20 1
        
        Will the Falcons do better than the Braves LWLWLWLWLWLWLWLWLW this year? -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 12:33
      - Citi Bike has e-bikes you can use if you want to go that route. Buy a scooter and rent the Citi Bike. -- nm - Krusty Aug 4, 12:15
      - I’m sure you can get a shitty one for less. -- nm* - spamlet Aug 4, 12:13 1
        
        That sounds more like ty97. - Spawn Aug 4, 12:14
