The DOT has a list of interesting studies on the active transportation in the form of walking and cycling https://www.transportation.gov/mission/health/active-transpo...

You can also search for studies that compare the societal cost/benefit of using a car vs a bicycle. The generally accepted conclusion is that cars have a cost while cycling has a benefit for society.

That's not what I'm saying. Based on OPs phrasing, their specific bike was marked as a health hazard. Maybe their bike is painted with lead based paint. There could be a million reasons a specific model could be unhealthy.

Oh sorry, I missed that CA over-cautious warning label nonsense.

See, that's the thing... what "over-cautious warning label nonsense"? What are they actually warning about? Which chemicals/products?

Who’d know. It gets slapped on all sorts of things and you can’t tell which matter.
