Personally, I believe that protected bike lanes are often seen as a safer option for cyclists, but some argue that improving shared road access is just as important. Should cities invest more in protected bike lanes or is it better to make existing roads safer and more accessible for cyclists?

I believe that e-bikes have changed the cycling landscape, making riding easier and more accessible for many people. But some cyclists still prefer the simplicity and challenge of traditional bikes. In your personal opinion, do you think e-bikes have earned their popularity or do you think...

There are countless e-bikes and regular repair tutorials online, but some channels explain things better than others which makes it very easy to carry out by yourself. Which channel do you trust most for learning e-bike repairs and maintenance? What are the ones you would easily recommend?

Have you ever removed parts or accessories from your e-bike to make it lighter? What did you take off and did you actually notice a difference on the road or the performance of your e-bike?

I don't really know if we already have an e-bike racing tournaments where many riders come together from different countries to race. I think it's going to be an interesting event if they can actually carry it out. What do you think about this? Can it be carried out globally?

From my experience of using bikes for years, all of their bells typically have a familiar sound that others can easily recognize as a bike bell. But I keep wondering why they don't have bikes use horn? Could it be that there's a way they expect people to reach to bike bells and car horns...

Unfortunately, I don't own a scooter 🛵 yet. So, I wouldn't really know much about what the app is used for and how it benefits the users. Do some scooters come with LCD display like e-bikes do?

I usually cover 40km to 50km most of the time whenever I'm out and it's going to take the same thing when I'm coming back. So, I'm roughly going about 80km to 100km. My battery capacity is packed at 300km, so I'm very much good with nothing to worry about.

Also, consider the source of charging because I've seen some people use poor low current to charge their batteries and it causes degradation too.

Personally, I would choose torque every time. Most of my riding is in traffic and around town, so having that instant pull off the line feels a lot more useful than chasing top speed. Also, I try as much as possible to not speed too much to avoid accidents.
