That is truly an incomprehensibly bad article, absolutely infuriating! They acknowledge that some bikes don't have throttles, but to leave out a detailed discussion of rear hub vs. front hub, kit vs. integrated bike, hub drive vs. mid-drive, and torque vs. cadence sensing-- yeah, that's basically omitting the most important information any buyer needs to know.
This is why no one trusts the news, health care professionals, teachers, etc. Anyone can write and publish anything; this is now considered a free speech issue and not a professional ethics issue.
Really expected more from the Daily News, which is my alternative to the other NY tabloid rag which isn't even fit for toilet paper or fire kindling.
