    Yep. This guy is a moron. The cheap and easy thing to do is just steal the $500-1000 battery that’s held in by a shitty key. My bike low jacks itself.

      I’ve always thought they should make security cages for ebikes. The one thing I liked about my lectric xp was that the battery seemed hard to steal compared to others.

      Especially those stupid triangle bag ones where its just Velcro.
