I think I understand more about electric bikes after reading more on this forum. Another question: If I have a direct drive hub motor that will pull me along at 20 mph on flat ground and I start to head downhill and want to coast and/or pedal faster, the motor will resist me. If I can just temporarily turn off the motor, won't it just freewheel (not resist me)?
