Covid-19 has provided a further spark. E-bikes appeal to commuters who are keen to avoid public transport, but don’t want to dress head-to-toe in Lycra and treat their journey to work like a stage of the Tour de France. Manufacturers have struggled to keep up with demand. VanMoof, a Dutch firm which makes futuristic e-bikes that sell for around 2,000 euros each, is planning to double its manufacturing capacity to 12,000 vehicles a month by the end of the summer.
So far, existing bike manufacturers have been the main beneficiaries of the boom. Accell, the $730 million Dutch group which owns brands such as Raleigh and Sparta, earned more than half its revenue from e-bikes last year. Investors are betting that will continue. Giant shares have risen 43% so far this year, and are now valued at 26 times Daiwa Capital Markets’ forecast earnings for 2021.

Breakingviews peter_tl As odd as this sounds, we may have found a positive COVID19 story. With more people getting around on 2 wheels, that could help to ease the obesity crisis.

Breakingviews peter_tl E bikes are a burgeoning sector to invest in.
Breakingviews peter_tl Exactly, my forecast from moths ago: covid won't transmit between cyclists.
Breakingviews peter_tl Somehow the private sector can't even mange to make a profit out of bikes, needing massive public cash so they can profit in the long run off taxpayers cash
Anarcho_Suburbo Breakingviews peter_tl THIS is what I'd like to see in Aotearoa (New Zealand). Better as a nation, better for individual health. Governments have ability to buy in bulk and offer cheap loans/grants. How about now? Especially now SkyPath is happening. _chloeswarbrick jacindaardern grantrobertson1

Breakingviews peter_tl Pedestrian should be the priority in all the downtowns around the world. The bicycle lanes should be very well designed. And always priority to the pedestrian! Bicyclers could be dangerous drivers. Amsterdam is a super bad example with dangerous lanes and bicyclers.
