>>1990629>easier to get stolenThat's ebike feature.
Ebike has to be left outside -> it takes about 20 seconds with cordless grinder to repossess the e-bike.
E-scooter has other safety layer called small in size, which means that grinder doesn't do the trick, and you have to attack owner in one way or another, and since nobody gonna go to jail because of stealing a faggot device, they don't do it.
>if batteries die the motor is counter productiveTrue for direct drive ebikes too.
