I want the wear a helmet vibe.
Found the parent
Nah for real though helmets are MVP
I used to never wear a helmet when commuting to school etc. but since I started mountain biking getting one seemed like a no-brainer and now it's like putting on my seatbelt. Riding without a helmet feels wildly irresponsible and I even put it on when doing a test-drive around the block after having done some maintenance.
ah yes, the acoustic bike, famous for its sound amplification
Should be something more analogous to its mechanics, like "analog". Wait a minute...
I'd ride them both. Err--the bikes, yes, both bikes.
Acoustic doesn't have a top tube...
Its just a very insecure step through bike.
Electric doesn't have the left leg of the owner.
Acoustic has a red light in the front?
Some bikes don't
However: invisible pedals
It punches me in the soul when someone uses the phrase "acoustic bike." I get that people are using it like it is used in guitars, but it makes no sense when applied to bikes.
The literal definition of acoustic from the dictionary is "of or relating to sound, the sense of hearing, or the science of sound." Non-electric bikes barely make any sound! Calling them "acoustic"... it is a terrible label.
If you don't oil your bike, it gets acoustic.
I know and that was the point! I was half hoping the ai would add strings or wood features to the "acoustic" bike or an amp or something to the electric one.
Simple, manual bike vs. electric bike. As in: manual labor, manual workers, a manual transmission, manual computation, manual indexing, manual bike.
Dictionary experts are always shouting that the dictionary does not define language, it just describes it. If we're honest it seems that the masses are adding a new definition to acoustic meaning unpowered or human-powered (and they have every right to do so as they've always done)..
What about...
unamplifiedI think it would just be bike or bicycle. If it's powered then it becomes an electric bicycle. If it really becomes necessary to specify then you could say traditional bicycle or regular bicycle. Maybe peddle bicycle vs self propelled?
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
I actually can't tell.
My guess is a flying fish
Do you want a “tron-esque nightmare” with no drivetrain or an “acoustic bike” with no frame?
Choose your VIBE bro!
Shitty AI images. AI doesn't know how to do pedals.
What the heck is going on with the pedals of the electric bike?
I mean, the "acoustic" bike doesn't even seem to have any in the first place, so...
I noticed. But not having them at all is easier to understand than...whatever that other thing is.
It’s the future, brah
AI images.
I'm aware.
I'll take the one with the seat. Not exactly too keen on riding with the seatpost up my ass 😂
A quirk of english language I find funny is that digit=finger. Therefore, digital prostate examination isn't something as high-tech as you might expect...
Whenever someone asks me why I don't use graphical user interface, I tell them that "graphical" comes from the Greek word for "to write", so my command line is actually a GUI
I heard Marjorie Taylor Greene is actually Dog the Bounty Hunter in drag. I mean, has anyone seen the both of them in the same place at the same time?
Percussive bike? Wind bike?
I'm an analogue bike kind of guy.
Soo.. peddles?
I don't really enjoy e-bikes. They're definitely easy transport, not something done for fun. Though I'm yet to try one on trail which could be great.

It's a spectrum. A pedal-assist electric bicycle and a Surron are both considered "e-bikes" yet they're wildly different with the other effectively being a motorbike. In europe the vast majority of e-bikes are pedal assist with a 250W motor and maximum speed of 25kph (15mph)
EDIT: Pedal assist (pedelec) means the motor only runs when you're pedaling and usually the harder you pedal the more it assists but it cuts off at 25kph and if you want to go faster it's muscle power only from there on.
I agree with you, electric bikes belong on the road.
.... after all cars are banned
I ride both regularly
A inbetween.
There must be Spanish (classical) bike and Russian bike (with extra spokes? Wheel?) as well.
Electric acoustic...
