That's what I'm talking about. If some XC guy has a passion for pain and likes to climb for hours, he is not the one who will have fun with an Ebike.

I'm also still skeptical about Ebikes ans I haven't tried one yet. I think you should keep in mind what you expect from riding your bike. If your main goal is to have fun on the descends, I don't see the problem. I often don't really enjoy pedaling uphill because this is not what I'm into when it comes to riding bikes. Sure, a nice technical climb can be a lot of fun (without Ebike), but these endless exhausting fireroad climbs just to get a short descend are situations when I would like to try an Ebike. In my opinion, people shuttling with anything other than a DH bike are far worse than guys pedaling an Ebike up the hill. I understand that using a shuttle is neccesary for certain trails or bikes that are not suitable to pedal up a hill. For anything other than that, it is just lazyness and not ok, because it pollutes the environment.
