Are you used to riding standard bikes? If so, you mean much harder than riding one of those at the same speed?
I think that there must be lots of people now riding ebikes who did NOT really ride conventional bikes before that. They probably DO think that it is hard work, because they are used to the motor helping them a lot of the time.
You can try my 2017 Bosch bike next time we meet.
I'm sure you will get that treacle feeling.
Although as I said, there is next to no resistance from the latest Bosch motors.
