That hasn't been my experience so far - which, tb fair, is only a couple of weeks.

"Muy heavy" is right on the money bc my 9-Continents FWD wheel is 20 lbs and the batt must be at least another 15.

But on the flats, I'm holding 8-12 mph with zero assist and breathing only through my nose.

I'm 69, managed to mess up my bronchs a lot of years ago, and use the eBike to get around in cold weather without having to resort to mouth breathing - which leaves me coughing my brains out all that night.
