Well, well... ES Bible "Search found 63 matches: +Stigma"...
Ya got yer "noise/system weight/stigma" (re mid drives), "the stigma of "cheating" with an ebike" (re posting about ebikes in a forum for the Great Unwashed types), "a stigma that remains from when lipo batteries first came out", "the stigma that comes with it of "f*cking hipster"", "the EV stigma", "the stigma that used to be attached to getting government assistance", "The stigma of electrics" ("underwhelming performance"... apparently), "stigma attached to bicycles", "the stigma that mountain bikers carried", "the stigma of LiPo fires" (again), "the stigma around cigarettes", ""Green" transport is losing it's negative stigma", " the stigma of motor assist", (my fav) "stigma of the car" hehe, "a huge doofus stigma on those things" (the "damn" minivan), "the National Ebike Riders Directory (NERD)" ("the last stigma we need"), "the black sheep stigma you guys like to foster" (hehe), ... etc.
And maybe a new flavour, the phrase "E-bike Stigma". Seen here:
http://www.core77.com/projects/46933/Shibusa-The-Modular-Dual-Function-Bicycle
Where it is said "This makes it difficult for manufacturers to make affordable electric bikes due to the relatively small user market." So sorta ignores watts happening in China and Europe. And in their world they imagine an ebike design that can be easily converted back to a classic/antique "traditional" pedal-only Poop-Mobile-style bike? Maintaining the "spirit" of a "traditional" bicycle, where folks can "enjoy the challenge" of struggling up hills. <Insert much grunting here>
Well at least they went with carbon for the frame... G'Luck kids! (Per Core77 "Since 1995 Core77.com has served a devoted global audience of industrial designers ranging from students through seasoned professionals.")
