Just had a peep at it and it appears quite good. The *up to 60* miles
range is very good, plus the Ally frame etc.
I've been chewing over whether to get an E bike myself for a while.
That one is worth considering.
Price is reasonable.

Yes I was thinking the same as you...Also I was just wondering can you
take the computer off the handlebars when U park your bike up and what
kind of lock would you buy if you had to leave it outside a tube station
not forgetting I will put the battery in my rucksack.

My Aunt uses one (not that model). Very useful for hills. Cycle as normal, get assistance when required. I believe you can regenerate with braking to charge the battery?

If that is true on this model that's an added bonus.

Indeed, but it's not listed in the spec.

It seems an obvious thing to have. You have the battery, you have the motor, why not do it?

If it charged the battery on the go, where does the energy come from?

On a normal bike, it's dissipated as heat in the brake blocks.

We've had a hot, dry summer this year. It was so hot that one of my neighbors said his wife even thawed out.

Cost I assume.
