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?
Grin is co-developing a mid drive regen. It has a neat design.
Not a mid-drive but a geared hub. And yeah, it’s a pretty cool design. I’m just worried about cost and water/salt ingress.
