Whats the point of having an eBike if you cant even see whats going on? I mean, seriously, who thought it was a good idea to stick a tiny LED display on a bike thats supposed to be high-tech? Are we still in the dark ages of cycling technology or what?
Can someone please enlighten me (pun intended) on what type of display the latest eBikes come with? Is it an LCD or LED? And more importantly, can you actually read the thing while youre moving? Im talking about real-world usability here, not some lab-tested nonsense.
Ive seen some eBikes with these itsy-bitsy LED displays that look like they belong on a 90s calculator. Are those really the best we can do? And dont even get me started on the whole its an eBike, not a smartphone argument. If Im dropping thousands of dollars on a bike, I expect it to have a display that doesnt make me squint like a grandma trying to read a recipe.
So, whats the deal? Are eBike manufacturers finally getting their act together and putting decent displays on their bikes, or are we stuck with these pathetic excuses for displays? Inquiring minds want to know.
