Garmin (no Strava) Segments for Ebike?

Maybe I missed somthing, but is it possible that you can't use Garmin segments on ebike-activity? I´m not talking about synced Strava segments. By the way...I do not want to start an discussion about Ebike segements. So please do not feel triggered.

I fully understand that activities for ebike and normal bike will be seperated.
Maybe it would be possible to use the same segments and show an ebike an non ebike time via filter, similar to the "only me filter".

But up to now it seems, that it´s not possible to create an new segment out of an ebike activity even

Like said... I do not want to discuss. I´m not interessted in some kind of uphill KOM compared to push-biker.

I also do not understand what is reprehnsible to set downhill and uphill segments, where all Ebikers can compare to each other or which you can use for training?

That e-racing works can be seen on the E-EWS which is much more interessing in my opinion compared to EWS or even stupid marathon or XC push bike races, where you can compete in a high level only, if you recieve your drugs Of course that´s my opinion but I´ve learned to be tolerant against other opinions.
And yes yes...fully understand...Ebike racing is no sport...in the same way cancel F1, MotoGP etc, please...bloody ignorant people

For training for E-enduro it would be great to set some downhill segements (of course away from freqently used trails) to get a life time analyses since strava removed the life segments for downhill.

In conclusion...the functionallity is given, can be easy implemented on Garmin side...so why not include?
And people who did not care about ebikes or whatever mustn´t be use or even will not find this feature inside their watch.

I think you should write this to Garmin as an idea. Even if they not let normal segments to appear on E Bike profile, there may be possibility to create segments for E bike activities. Or maybe they have or will have another plans, but first you should put the idea on...

I already did in the meantime

But instead of creating own segments for E it would be smart to use the same ones but have an filter for ebikes and push bikes. Some people are riding both and it would be nice to have a comparison ;)

I have a Kenevo SL ebike, which helps (HELPS - as I still sweat like a pig) me to climb for 30 min, to have strength and motivation fir fun descents for like 7 min later :). All segments i created are for enduro descents, where I don't even use the motor. The watch still shows them and gives me the prompt, but I can't see any statistics after the ride. Garmin simply doesn't understand the sport, unfortunately...I didn't know they've purposely disabled ebike activity logging segments. I don't think they even mention this anywhere. I can still log my ride As a normal bike though and "cheat"...
