    Wow these “lightweight” bikes are 50-60 pounds. I’d be worried about hitting bumps on a carbon frame with that much weight on it. Are most ebikes carbon frame now?

    Carbon is not a good choice for a commuter bike. If you’ve got it locked up and someone else’s bike falls onto yours, the frame could be toast.
