The assist bike I built (similar to many out there) allows adjustment of the assist level. On the way to work I can use more so I don’t sweat and lower it on the way home. On the most scenic parts the assist can be turned off. When I have my laptop and lots of weight on the rack it helps on the bigger hills. You can get a great workout and tailor it as needed. I still like my unassisted gravel bike more, but the assist bike adds flexibility which means I can ride more often. Try one!
