I bought an eFatbike to accompany my hardtail so that I can ride year around but turns out that riding an eBike is much more fun so I’ve barely used my hardtail since. Well last summer I snapped the derailleur hanger on the eBike and had to go back to riding my hardtail for over a week while I was waiting for the spare part to arrive. Few observations I made:

• Holy shit the hardtail is light. Felt like I could bunnyhop more than half a meter of the ground
• Uphills suuuucked. This is by far the biggest benefit of riding an ebike.
• I didn’t get immediately out of breath unlike I expected. Infact I didn’t notice any difference despite not riding the analog bike for a year. Cycling is the only aerobic excercise I do.
