You will adapt to whatever bike you ride - I would rather have extra power that I don't use or need most of the time. I'm in trail mode 80 - 90 % of the time, glad to have it when I need it, or sometimes it's just fun to have that extra acceleration, even on easy flow trails, flats, or if you...
Rode my friends SL and thought it was great, decided to get an e-bike. The local bike shop had a Heckler MX in stock and I grabbed it and love it. Happy to choose the level of assist I need when riding, none to boost.
Been riding a Santa Cruz Tallboy for a couple of years and took a Specialized Levo SL for a ride and it really surprised me, At the bike shop the next day they had a Heckler MX in stock and I could not resist. 50 miles in 4 days and I'm hooked.
