No do not add to pollution, power the bike with your own legs. Otherwise get A Vespa or Piaggio,
Vespa's parent company that makes a larger scooter with larger wheels and far more power.

Hello,
This is my first post to this group. I'm very unfamiliar with bikes in general, having not ridden
one in years. However, those electric bikes (scooters?) have caught my eye and I'm thinking of
getting one.
I have some reservations and was wondering what the advantages v. drawbacks are of different types
of e-bikes.
First question: Is there a type of e-bike / scooter that can be folded up and taken wherever you go?
The main impediment to my decision of purchasing a bike is the ease with which it can be stolen. I
go to many places downtown and would like the flexibility of being able to go in and out without
much fuss. Any advice?
