Consider this: while we're obsessing over power output and speed on flat terrain, what about the unsung hero of eBike performance—the battery? How does the battery capacity and discharge rate tie into the maximum assist experience? A 750-watt motor might sound thrilling, but if it’s sucking juice like a thirsty marathon runner, that high speed may be short-lived.

And let’s not forget about the rider's contribution to the equation. Does the rider's pedaling cadence impact the eBike's efficiency? Is there a sweet spot in cadence that maximizes the assist without draining the battery too fast?

Also, how do different eBike configurations—like weight distribution and frame geometry—affect performance on flat terrain? Can we quantify the differences in speed and power output when these variables are at play, or is it all just a well-spun tale from the marketing department?
