Hello everyone.

I am, a keen cyclist with 2 young children. I have just bought a trailer to transport them but am now looking for an electric bike. My budget is up to £600 (at a push). I would really like to purchase a second hand giant lafree but would like to know where you can buy them.

Also, are they suitable for pulling up steep hills with a trailer? I live in Bristol where it is very hilly and my daughter's school is at the top of one of the biggest hills!

Another question, is it wise to buy a second hand bike if they are no longer made? (in terms of spare parts etc.)

There is one lafree on ebay but it has no manual, key or charger as apparently it is from an office clearance thing, what do you think...is it possible to replace these things?

Thanks Vivi
