So curious, how many laps to top of 7th for example could you knock out on this thing before running it dry? And did you try pedaling unassisted up fire road?  I have a 2019 bronson  which is basically the normally aspired (we need to make this a thing!) version of the heckler I hear.  On a weekend where I don't have my daughter, i can knock out 1600m elevation doing fromme laps, and it's holding onto the bike on the descent that makes me stop.    Also tempted with the quicker ride though, something to smack out during my work at home lunch break during covid. Totally agree about the extra laps + tear & wear on the trails though.  Maybe we need to require ebikes to display the local mountain bike associate membership sticker to make sure trail contributes has been made :D (oh i don't want to open up a tax flame war here, I know a noob who drags their brakes will also damage trail, as will someone who rides normally aspired daily compared to someone who rides ebike on weekend only.  No such thing as a "fair tax")
