efficiency: not so much

noise: quite a bit

also bear in mind that just 100w added to someone which is already sportive is quite sufficient for commuting. going harder would put excessive wear on bike chains that for me are already excessively thin.

now, tires and brakes. did you use bicyle grade tires that are way too soft or some ebike rated tire that are much harder ? also brake, olease check your brake, you don’t need to be electric for make the brake suffer, so that you need bigger discs, ceramic pads…
