That's the downside to others. The downside to owning an e-bike, especially a cargo bike, is that they're very attractive to steal. Thieves will go to great lengths to grab an e-bike, especially expensive ones like the cargo variants.

It’s really a shame and prevents me from using my e-bike instead of my car even in some situations when the bike would otherwise be the perfect mode of transportation.

How are the rental ones (and scooters). I do not have a smart phone (and live in a rural area). I go into Austin now and then for a day or two and am reluctant to use sisters e-bike because of the hassle of taking care of it (when going inside a building). Rentals can just be left on the sidewalk.
