I especially liked that man Leo who said he invented a system in which your 10 second worth of pedalling wouls store as much energy as you could ride assisted for the next 10 kmMotors of the Future?

The Hell is paved with new inventions that never find their way to the industry. For one, I have not heard from a single EBR Forum member that he/she owns a mid-drive motor with the internal gearbox yet...
Can they build e-bikes, too?bicycles
Yes, I suspect so.Can they build e-bikes, too?
There's more in an e-bike than in the bicycle. Integration of the battery, motor, and the peripherals. Making the e-bike structurally strong but not overweight and so on. You will certainly agree with me that many early e-bikes made by bicycle companies were simply horrible?My own observation is that a bicycle company, on the average, will make a better e-bike than a non-bicycle company would. A lot of that is because I am pretty confident that the engineers at an actual bicycle company have, at least recently, and probably quite frequently, actually ridden a bicycle.
