    can help a lot with steep hills or pulling more weight on a cargo bike etc. Agreed. I live in a fairly flat area, but there’s still a few hills and one of them, I’m only going a few miles per hour even with pedaling at 750W assist (class 2 ebike in the US). Given this is just proposing 250W->500W change, its not going far enough imo.
