Since gasoline because unusable after awhile, most cars will become obstacles and block up roads.
So we of course want something that can zip around the roads!
The main advantages I see are:
-
Peddle when out of juice
-
Peddling charges the batteries, so in an emergency you can turn on the battery
-
The batteries can reasonably be charged by solar panels that a lot of houses have.
-
Gets around all the blocked roads.
-
Generally easier to repair.
-
The distance travelled on a full battery is absurd
I don’t expect any movies to put their heroes on an eBike, but they should!
IDK just thought you’d appreciate my dumb thought XD Any other reasons why during an apocalypse you should find an ebike?
I think you misspelled “Bikes” in your title.
Guess the concern is maybe in the apocalypse might not have a ton of food, but having a solar setup should be pretty easy.
But either way, need more bike riders in apocalypse movies!
Ebike is another way to refer to electric bicycles. It’s the new transportation mode people are absolutely loving as an option for city living. This is due to the emphasis of cities becoming walkable to reduce their impact on climate change.
They know, they’re saying ebikes would suck in the apocalypse. I agree. They’re too heavy and the batteries don’t last long enough to be useful without power access. If you had that kind of power access an emoto would be better.
why an e motorcycle over an electric bike? I feel the disadvantages are worse: its heavier, larger and requires more time to fully charge. Sure its faster, can probably get your further, and can carry heavier things, but every time you’re not using those aspects, the disadvantages are more pronounced. Can’t fully charge the battery due to slow charging with whatever you can muster up? will now you’re just carrying dead weight.
Will there be nice roads that you know are safe for you to drive fast on? Maybe, again you may be carrying deadweight otherwise.
If you’re not using it to carry large/heavy items, again you’re riding around in dead weight.
