Anyone using an e-bike? Thinking about getting one but.....

[Grannybwell]

I put on extra weight since an injury last year left me unable to run or bike properly. Used a static bike indoors as part of my rehabilitation.. However, I am so missing covering miles outside .. And although running is off limits, it's been suggested an ebike could be the answer. Outside, still pedalling but with the battery there to help where I can't give it the kind of welly I used to get up our high hills. Anyone with experience? 🌸

I have two friends who use them and love them Grannybwell especially in hilly Scotland! However I have no idea what make they are 😕 When I bought my exercise bike I read loads of reviews online about different types and the various suppliers which may help,you decide

Good luck and keep us posted 😊

Will do! Just found a seller that gives a option to try before you buy! Going to get my brother to come along with me when he can and take one for a spin. Watch this space!… 🚲🚲🌸

I know. He's away this weekend... Otherwise I'd have already got him over to mine and then the bike shop, only got to wait till next weekend.. . Something positive - not food - to focus on during next week.... 🚲🚲

I would love an e-bike but am put off by the price.

I agree they are pricey and I'll have to take that into consideration when exploring this. But it's still going to be fun trying out before I decide! 🌸
