I built my first (and so far only) ebike in 2013. Thing was a death trap (did not upgrade the brakes ๐คฆโโ๏ธ) but I loved it, and it was crazy fun to ride.
Lived too far to e-bike to work but would bring it with me to do around-town errands on breaks at work. Every time I had to park it outside to run into a store, I felt exactly like the meme. The battery alone was $700 sitting out in the open.
In my experience, batteries aren't really targets. The folks in Seattle just want the tubing that they can fence it for cash.
