    Acoustic is funnier than analog, and I’m not sure if it’s any less accurate than analog. In analog clocks, the passage of time is represented in an analogous rotation of clock hands. In analog sound, the change in voltage on a wire is analogous to the pressure waves you hear as sound. I don’t know what is analogous to what in biking.

    Also, the opposite of analog is digital, and ebikes are not digital bikes.

      I’m pretty sure E-bikes are digitally controlled.

      Acoustic is definitely funnier, but all definitions I can find about it relate to sound.

        Well, if your acoustic bike is not making any sound it’s because you’re maintaining and oiling it too much

      Mechanical bikes sounds good.

        Motors are also mechanical.

          Of course they are. But if we’re being pedantic, flesh is also electric.
