Engwe L20 3.0 Pro
Got a question as I'm not sure if its normal behaviour. When im on PAS (regardless of what level) and on gear 7 once my bike hits 15.5MPH I feel the bike forcibly pulling me back/slowing down. Attempting to pedal harder is just impossible that you would with a normal bike. Also, when attempting to pedal like a normal bike and no PAS activated is literally impossible regardless of gear, it just won't happen unless you want sore legs and serious fatigue. Anyone else notice the same with their Pro/Boost?

First guess is that the motor is cutting out at 15 MPH. This is a common speed limit for the EU, not common in the US. I would check your settings.
An ebike with a dead motor does not feel like a regular bike. The dead motor has some drag, and the bike is normally much heavier.

Yeah it cuts out at 15.5mph which is fine but what i think doesn't feel right is the fact its nearly impossible to pedal with PAS switched off, like really impossible lol

Try pedaling with the motor switched off, you'll get a feel for how much drag you are getting from the motor. Try getting the bike of to 15.5 just on human power. You'll be surprised how difficult it is.
You are getting a fair amount of wind resistance at that speed. The motor gets you up to 15.5 and all is well, but then it cuts out and starts providing drag instead of helping you.

Dsl j'arrive en cours de route
Nan ya vraiment quelque chose avec le l20 J'ai le l20 3.0 boost et clairement t'en chie
Je trouve même que pour atteindre de 25kmh en faite faut vraiment mettre de l'effort
En comparaison j'ai le engwe engine pro 2.0 et clairement dans les même conditions genre du plat même sans assistance j'arrive sans problème sur les 25km h Ok en pédalant avec un peu de force mais pas non plus comme un forcené
Tu fait la même avec l'autre c une misère

Just got mine, how's yours going after having it a while? Mine is a bit noisy especially in higher gear, gonna try a barrel adjustment when I got time, I’m also trying to sort a front basket that uses the bike’s front frame/fork mounting points, not a handlebar-mounted basket which is difficult as they are out of stock.
