Bonzo Banana you make a solid point with e-bike purchases. Aside from the typical bicycle parts, the drive train and controllers are not as simple and easy to dig into and service. Bike shops are welcoming e-bikes just like they did with mountain bikes, albeit, not at such a large volume. The mechanics I know are excited to service them as well as servicing the electronic shifting systems. It is a new skill they can develop and charge higher labor rates for that skill.
