Well, I wouldn’t be surprised if e-bikes completely replaced normal bikes in the future. One reason is that they are becoming more affordable and popular every year, so more people can actually buy one. They also save time and energy for daily commuting, which is especially important in big cities. Younger generations are usually attracted to new technology, so they will probably choose e-bikes over traditional ones. On top of that, governments may support this trend by giving subsidies or creating more bike-sharing programs with electric models. Over time, this could make ordinary bicycles less common. At the end of the day, convenience usually wins, and e-bikes are more convenient for most people. That’s why I can imagine them slowly replacing traditional bikes.

No, I can’t see electric bicycles taking over ordinary ones completely. First of all, they are still more expensive and harder to maintain, so not everyone will switch. They also can’t fully replace the health benefits of traditional cycling, because people won’t get the same level of exercise. Another issue is that e-bikes are heavier and less convenient to carry or store, especially if people live in an apartment. Many people also prefer the simplicity of a normal bike… just jump on and ride without thinking about charging or fixing a motor. At the end of the day, some people will always go for the classic option. That’s why I believe ordinary bicycles will still be around, even if electric ones become more popular.
