    Had the number of affordable ebikes also tossed 430%? I wouldn’t be surprised. I hate ebikes but I prefer kids riding those to being in cars.

      From a quick search we had like 1.5-2 million ebikes on the road in 2022 and between 6.5-8 million now so I’d say there are around 400% of the total ebikes on the road from 2022, being ridden now. Over the past 4 years the average age of riders seems to be getting lower too… Maybe that is playing into the numbers a bit.
