I know going to 10 levels would make it start slower at level 1, but am happy with using throttle for smooth starts. One of these days I'll try setting to 10 levels to see if the more frequent button pushing is worth the finer gradations in power/speed.
With a programming cable you can set each assist level to be whatever you want it to be. You could make level 1 produce a higher power than level 10 if you wish.
If you don't like button pushing you might be better served with a torque sensing unit.
