My PAS does not lurch very easily, it"s actually bit too un-sensitive. It takes over half crank revolution to wake it up. That"s why i start with throttle quite often.
It stops immediately, which is what my old PAS did not do. I rode over 10 000km with throttle only, it works well too but it"s just relaxing to let that computer throttle.
You just pedal and it delivers a right amount of power. Look ma, no hands! :wink:
Now in 2016 throttle-only bikes are legal here first time, so throttle may become more popular.
Throttle is not a big deal really. For lycras and others it"s "oh!, you are a moped!", but it is really not a big deal. Just a device to help you out.
I don"t like this idea that pedaling is "excercise". It"s not exceptional. It"s just part of the game. You do get excercise while doing it, but it is more fun if you don"t underline it or make it sound like it"s something un-normal. Psychological trickery you see :wink: If you make something sound exceptional, it becomes more hard to do. Just do it as part of your life and don"t make a noise about it. It harms you.
Of course you can approach e-bike as a 5kw throttle only moped, which is fine too. It"s just not my cup of tea.
