A sheltered e-bike seems perfect for the winters where I live but the ones I see available start at $10,000 which seems very steep given they are categorized as bikes.

    They can go anywhere a bike can and can carry a decent amount of cargo, whereas NEVs are limited to only roads with a speed limit of 30 mph or less. That’s my thinking anyway.

      It’s a fair point that there are different laws in different countries (or states) when it comes to PEV’s and those could affect what people buy. But I still don’t see it. Bikes have been around for a very long time, as has bad weather. If covered bikes were going to be a thing, they would be already.
