Like you say, downhill it's the same. but on average it's going to be slower because it's speed limited, so it's not fair to say ebikes are faster by any measure.

The point is you can still easily go as fast as any road bike...

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
