My other half was thinking of getting an e-bike because the trains are fucked going into London Bridge 'cos of crossrail and she wanted to get to work and do nursery/school pick-up on time.
In the end she went for a Brompton.
But having tried a few e-bikes at the last cycle show in the Excel centre, I must say they are great fun!
You can do both, there are front wheel electric motors made for bromptonists, the battery goes in the bag on the front and the little wheels fly up hills past all the whingey fuckers shouting cheat at you
