@harold My commute is about 10km daily and I charge my 400Wh battery maybe twice a week, tops.

@pettter @harold mine is also ~10km and I am fine with a non-electric bike. Have you considered this option and could you share some pros/cons? In my case I care more of the exercise than of the actual commute, as I can also travel by metro train.

@mapto I only have regular bikes and have commuted several times over the years. luckily I had change and shower facilities. A major pro of an e-bike would be arriving at work and not sweating. Then you could reduce the pedal assist on the return trip and work up a good sweat :) @pettter

@harold @pettter being able to control pedal assist has been the key attracting force for me. Thanks

@mapto @harold I've biked regular for years. The ebike is mainly to keep me biking also in winter, since the spiked wheels and snow add a fair amount of resistance, and I tended to switch to public transports for a few months.
