Yeah, it sucks but we have to consider, that eBikes only now are starting to get to "general" quality with good OEM support, on something that's """only""" a grand or two to purchase anyway. If I was an old boomer trying to make policy it would be hard for me to gauge what would be worth a rebate and in what WAY it gets said rebate, in an era where bikeshare programs are going bankrupt everywhere giving (to again, a boomer who barely understands their smartphone) a cheap source trying to be offloaded WHILE it's also easy to look up "ebike battery fires NOV2021" on youtube.
