I know exactly what you mean... Like the experts on here with their own ebike websites that will never admit that they may not know it all. Their condescension towards new posters is exhibited all too often...I did. And you came off as being snotty/snobby in a way that is sadly all too common in cycling. But usually its an analog cyclist looking down their nose at an ebiker. Here we have one flavor of ebiker pooping on others. As a community we need less of this and more recognizance of the overall goal and how we are either moving towards it ... or fighting against it.
Again I never said that the flavor being discussed doesn't have a purpose... But if you are looking for rider pedal input and you purchased one of these, you may not have done enough homework. Swapping out the drivetrain to less efficient gearing that will probably end up being to difficult to ride without a motor doesn't seem like the best solution to me as it doesn't change fundamentally how the bike functions.
But hey no one ever makes mistakes that should be pointed out for their benefit and let's give them a pat on the back and a trophy too
