I looked into getting one. It would increase my commute range if I move (I ride about 4miles to and from work daily). It would also make me a little less sweaty on those hot summer mornings. They are fun, you feel very strong riding them. Most have various levels of assist. They are heavy and making them a good workout with the assist off. I do feel you would get scowls from other riders, though they are a little discreet (pedal assist means you look like pedaling), you do notice when people ride by such little effort.
