Ive ridden my eBike once and for sure on the flats and shallow grades(up and down) it suffers due to the 25kmh assist limit and the extra weight. What surprised me the most is as soon as the assist cuts out, it feels like you have a rope attached and dragging an anchor. Everywhere else the ebike is better.

This is the main reason I’m getting an emtb. The older you get, the more fatigue becomes the enemy. And fatigue doesn’t just mean slower on the ups or having to end a ride sooner- it means slower and, most importantly, more dangerous on the downs. Because this is a sport of inches, sometimes mms- and just a bit off can be the difference between a good day and a crash that takes you off your bike for a while.

One big difference is the fun factor. Analog bikes are poppier, more maneuverable, and easier to manual/wheelie/hop. I'm on a Shuttle SL, coming from a Switchblade and it's a huge and noticeable difference in the ride quality and fun factor. While I now get double the amount of riding in the same timeframe, it's not as fun on the downs as on the Switchblade. It's quantity over quality. Even as a superlight eBike, all of the weight is concentrated in the downtube, which makes the bike feel really unbalanced. This makes it harder to pop off side hits and bunnyhop, too. If I age and fitness level weren't a factor, I would go back to an analog bike!

Basically Ebike saves you effort on climbing and both performs almost the same on jumps and trails etc. 2mins vs 7mins saves you time and effort. So lite ebike is the sweetspot then good enough to climb and performs like analogue.

I have ridden with guys on non e bikes and they smoked me on the uphills on my e bike. The weight going downhill has it pros and cons. I have found it’s definitely more planted and doesn’t get knocked off line as much. And going into some turns and berms it’s easier to scrub off speed when entering and let it roll thru

That has to be false because a 90 year old on an e bike flew past me on the trail going uphill. Sorry, but I don't believe you.

@@kevinburke1325 you ain’t got to believe me but it happened. These donks were on sugar speed light ass bikes. And the riders were half the size of me and x racers. E bikes are still faster then regular bikes but if people are in shape and very good pedaled they can smoke an e bike uphill.

@worldstallestmidget I just remember me pedaling as hard as possible and a 90 year old flew past me on an e bike going uphill. Are you sure your engine didn't just cutoff and they weren't using e bikes? It just sounds odd is all because a freaking 90 year old whizzed past me on an e bike.

So you gain 5 minutes on the climb and lose maybe 1 second on the descent, really only one winner!

After about 3 years the last Keurig stopped working kzbin.infoUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf initially was able to unblock, however eventually we couldn't fix. That one was a replacement unit sent by the manufacturer after we had problems with our very first Keurig. This works fine (lol, at least for now) however I didn't realize the water reservoir was so much smaller than our prior unit. With 2 people having one or two cups of coffee each morning, it seems like I'm refilling it daily. Otherwise just happy to have the convenience of pod coffee vs. making a morning pot.

Analog is still an electric Signal, Just Not 1s and 0s. Mechanical would be more fitting.
