Ebike.
Bought a REI Cty 2.2 for my wife. Buying Yamaha CrossCore RC for myself next year.
Unless you are extremely fit, an ebike will literally change your life. It is so pleasant to just be able to bike for 30-40 miles at 20mph. I would recommend torque sensing mid drives without a throttle because you can still get some exercise.
I used to bike hard in teens. As I aged things got harder, I then had some mild nerve damage and my muscles now get tired quicker. Ebike makes me feel like I have teen legs again and it feels amazing.
- ornornor 4y agoEbikes are great, they also let you go places in the summer without being a sweaty mess. Definitely get a mid drive with torque sensing, otherwise your just riding a goofy moped. With a torque sensing mid drive it’s like riding a bicycle with bionic legs. You can also build your own from a regular bicycle and a tsdz2 motor. Someone in Portugal wrote a much better and open source firmware for it that makes it really nice to use.
