You might have had one such comment when you first posted a picture of your bike, but the comment could have been so sarcastic that it was too difficult to understand. Your seat seems to be positioned unusually low, though already a tad higher than before. Are you really able to properly stretch your legs? If not, you are not exploiting fully your mechanical power, possibly making the the electrical power assist indispensable.
