We've spoken about eBike weight and power a lot on this channel, but have never come to a conclusion on whether it actually matters. So Steve has asked a few of his buddies what they think about the subject and why they've settled on the 'Mid' assist option when choosing their own bike. We hope that by casting the net of opinions a little bit wider, you'll be able to make an informed decision when buying your next eBike!
