Here are my suggestions for a collective noun for ebikes:

A whine of ebikes.
A cheat of ebikes.
A deceit of ebikes.
And given the condition of many riders:
A hospital of ebikes.

Can you think of a better one?

Useing an avian theme I rather like "A Plump of Ebikes",(because we're all quackers) :p
it certainly follows my thought train as I regularly refer to the sportive riders as "Flocking cyclists" obviously because they flock together ;)

Plenty more spring to mind
A Plush,
A Pleasure,
A Comfy,
A Charge,
A Chuckle,
An Alternative of Ebikes
or An Oddity of Ebikes.....you don't often see them riding in groups :(

I don't have any negative nouns as I see Ebikes as a good thing, I think the OP is looking from the "ordinary" persons perspective.

Just thought of
An Enlightenment of Ebikes :cool:

The various anti e-bike lobbies might suggest these:

A curse of e-bikes

An idleness of e-bikes

A laziness of e-bikes

An inability of e-bikes

and of course the old favourite:

A cheat of e-bikes.

When lithium batteries were first introduced, these might have been suitable:
