Imagine operating a manually pedaled bike in 2022.
tryhard "earned" cyclist
>has to wear skintight lycra
>arrives at destination covered in sweat
>miserable "look at me suffer" facial expression while cycling
>has to "fuel up" for the long ride
>spent $4000 on a road bike with diminishing returns
>wears weird quirky "clip in" pedal shoes that actually don't provide any extra power and can't be walked in comfortably
>wears funny brain shaped cranium protector
ascended ebike rider
>gets where he needs to go effortlessly
>can wear anything he wants, from boots to shorts
>no need to worry about being "aero"
>no hard as a rock saddle
>no bent over inducing drop bars
>fat, delicious, comfortable all terrain tires
>rip that throttle baby, broooom broooooom!
Face it, manual bikes are now objectively obsolete. It's the same as manual transmissions in cars, unneeded bullshit used to get from point A to point B. You cannot refute that ebikes are inferior to manually bicycles other than weight & transportability through cars/trains/etc.
The only argument you can give against ebikes it fitness related. But guess what, humans aren't even naturally designed to pedal bicycles for long periods of time. There this thing called prostate cancer.
