I'm a well-documented e-bike hater though. If it suits your purposes get one, everyone I know who's had one really likes them.

It's like normal cycling, but with extra fossil fuel and conflict metal use, and less good for fitness and health.

I got a hauler e-bike. Or some call them cargo bikes. I can haul a straw bale on the back with groceries in the front. I wouldn’t be able to ride it with a full load on a hill. The bike itself weighs 50lbs.

Outside of that, a lightweight road bike with all unnecessary crap stripped off is, in my opinion, better.
