There are certainly other costs to bike ownership. We haven't had to take it to the shop yet, but brake pads and tires will need replacing.
But the costs of this are miniscule compared to the maintenance we pay on the 12 year old car we also own.

Ebikes are going to have more money spent on maintenance and brake pads than they are on electricity
