Such a boring future we are living in :/ Well, there is hoping that enthusiast scene won't die with it
Doesn't mean we have to burn fossil fuels. Ethanol is cool as fuck. Less range but more power and you can make it with various methods.
As for bicycles, I cycled for many years and worked at a bicycle shop. Their "gearbox" design is horrible. Their durability is tragic. For commute I am using electric scooter now, much less reliability issues. I hate the tires on bicycles and scooters though, seriously need to get tubeless.
If your bike's durability is an issue that's on you for either not doing basic maintenance or buying a piece of junk.
Lol, lmao even
The most used mean of transportation in the world has durability issues 🙄
Compare how much needs to be spent to ride vs to drive, even if you were to change the chain and cassettes every 10k km...
No wonder you're asking if air cooled engines could make a comeback.
