it felt like I was always riding with a tailwind at my back|)...
As for the no go with the 250 or even the 500 watt motor... I guess you really need a motor bike.
NOT a motor bike disguised as a bicycle... JMO
I took my first test ride on a hub bike then a mid drive it was like night and day. except for hills I never use all the assist anymore. I just like more speed up hills. but on my commuter e bike I will do this 20% grade in tour and put out 400 watts climbing I at 10mph. its only a block but its fun we even do it on our tandem.
