What do you want to see from the e-bike industry in design, at retail, in how we present & demo goods? Why does the bike world struggle to engage the masses? What turns people off?

I'd like to see more adverts for bikes. In cinema, sides of buses, radio, mainstream magazines, social media. It's like a hidden cult at the moment.

Here’s what we wrote about it ⬇️
Last week we read @katelynburns.com powerful essay in @theflytrapmedia.bsky.social. Katelyn warned:
“Urbanism is full of critical feminist issues, but the lack of women helping to shape … cities endangers us all.” She asked where women in urbanism are on #bsky.
Where are the women?
