Cars are much more advanced tech than bikes. Hell we have partly self driving electric cars now. That's some sci-fi shit

    That's why I can't understand how some bikes can cost as much as a small used car.

    And some watches cost far more than both.

    Price isn't always perfectly aligned with complexity or utility 🤷‍♀️

    Yeah, some watches, but you can buy perfectly competent watches for very low prices.

    You can't buy a perfectly competent electric bike for a low price, at least not where I am.

    I basically have a teensy weak motorcycle that I can "fuel up" at home or bring a spare battery for long rides. I'm bothered the used cars are so expensive, not the bike

    I also ain't looking at $12k frames, (mine was $700) so it's got that going for it too.
