eBike vs traditional bike comparison

Hey everyone!

Been thinking a lot lately about the eBike vs. traditional bike debate, especially as I see more and more eBikes on the trails. I've got a trusty analog mountain bike that I love for my weekend 20-30 mile rides with some decent climbs, but sometimes I wonder if an eMTB would open up even more terrain or just make those longer days less of a grind.

For those of you who've ridden both extensively, what are your biggest takeaways? Do you find yourself reaching for one over the other for specific types of rides or distances? Curious to hear your thoughts!
