Since gasoline because unusable after awhile, most cars will become obstacles and block up roads.

So we of course want something that can zip around the roads!

The main advantages I see are:

  1. Peddle when out of juice

  2. Peddling charges the batteries, so in an emergency you can turn on the battery

  3. The batteries can reasonably be charged by solar panels that a lot of houses have.

  4. Gets around all the blocked roads.

  5. Generally easier to repair.

  6. The distance travelled on a full battery is absurd

I don’t expect any movies to put their heroes on an eBike, but they should!

IDK just thought you’d appreciate my dumb thought XD Any other reasons why during an apocalypse you should find an ebike?

    If you ride 50 miles to another town and 50 miles back you will need that capacity.
    If you don’t need that capacity you could get a smaller motorcycle that is hardly bigger than a bicycle.
    Certainly heavier, obviously.

    I store my motorcycles indoors in a spare room in the winter so i have space for my car in my garage. You can take motorcycles indoors.

    There are motorcycles as small as bicycles and some as large as… Well a large motorcycle. lol Motorcycles are very flexible. More flexible than bicycles, imo. You can find one to fit whatever your needs are.

    Some electric motorcycles:
    Surron
    KTM
    Zero
