Discuss the adoption of e-bikes and scooters in town over the past couple years and its impact (e.g. proposals for a formal speed limit on the commuter bikeway, debates over the creation of dedicated / mixed use paths when redesigning local roads). (Rich Moffitt suggests) * Why are people talking about “micromobility” now? * What are e-bike classes (1, 2, 3) and what are the tradeoffs / restrictions? * What's the risk of battery fires on these things and how can I manage the risks? * Why are they popular now? (mainly because motor costs have come way down and reliability has gone up, see video of hub motor production: E-Bike Hub Motor Factory Tour in China ELECTRICBIKE.COM ) * Is it feasible to DIY build (sometimes, with considerations) | Rich Moffitt | |
