    I’ve never even spent that much on a car. Maybe if I include repair bills it ends up being about that. I guess with bike there’s no insurance or gas but it still seems bonkers for a fraction of the metal and parts with not really much innovation.

      There’s a point of diminishing returns with bikes that some would estimate to be much, much lower than $12,000, even for an e-bike.

      And for a bike like that (e-MTB), it’s even more difficult to justify the costs, because it’s not a car replacement like an e-cargo bike could be.
