I have a similar experience. It feels like riding your bike in a higher gear - you can go faster but it will take more effort and you need the potential (stronger legs) to make use of it

It's more like shifting from a normal to an electric bike.

You can go further and faster, but you can get to a point where you're out of juice miles from home, and getting back is a chuffing nightmare.

Also, you discover that you're putting on weight and not getting that same buzz you got on your old pushbike.
