MONTEREY, Calif. (BRAIN) — If you’ve never ridden an electric bike before, several exhibitors at Sea Otter would really, really love to let you try one. Test rides, they believe, are the best advertisements for e-bikes.“We’re most interested in getting butts on bikes, since with e-bikes, the pedals speak much louder than our words,” said Jonathan Weinert of Bosch (Booth 706), which makes the motors for many high-end e-bikes.
