It is true that a regular bike will give you a better workout
if used the same amount of time and under the same conditions.
However, surveys have shown that electric bike owners ride
their electric bikes at least twice as much as they would
if it were a regular bike. This is because an electric bike
is more enjoyable when carrying heavy loads, climbing hills,
riding into strong winds, etc., and therefore owners tend
to use it more often and try more difficult rides. Thus,
even though the electric motor provides a lot of the effort,
the fact that you are riding for a longer time and going
on more strenuous rides, can mean that the electric bike
in fact gives you more exercise.
