Electric bikes can contribute to the decrease of emissions and present a carbon-positive alternative to gaspowered forms of motorized transport. Hence, the fact that both conventional and e-bike use have increased considerably during the Covid-19 pandemic can be considered as a positive development. At the same time, studies find that e-bike riders are traveling with higher speeds, and report new types of safety incidents, that they did not experience during conventional cycling. Risk related behavior of e-bike and c-bike riders has frequently been linked to crash-risk and injury severity [6][7]. But little research has been conducted on the comparison of self-reported risk related behavior between e-bike and conventional bike (c-bike) riders. Hence, in this study, the self-reported risk-related behavior of c-bik.e and e-bike riders was investigated.
