    How well do Ebikes perform without assist compared to a mountain or commuter bike?

    Twice the weight

    Like riding a very heavy old Schwinn

    I carry an extra battery as I am weak

    Re: Ebike?

    As I’m going to work only 4 days a week from April (going slowly into retirement), I also have bought an ebike. Just have to wait until May for delivery.
    The whole idea is to put all the 4x5 gear on the ebike and then go on some long trips. According to the specs I could have radius of about 120km.
    Can’t wait …

    My biggest concern is crashing. I will heal, hopefully, my cameras though??

    Always wear gloves and a skate helmet

    I have this, but knockoffs are on eBay

    Oh yes, I'm a big believer in helmets. I've only crashed once over the decades riding a bicycle. Had on a helmet, I broke right shoulder blade, no cracked head,

    And then we have this. Bonus if you have your camera gear and your bike stolen together.

    Really good movie

    I have 'lost' many bikes to thieves

    In Chicago they use a baseball bat to knock you off

    just kids...
