I believe 60Nm is sufficient for me on Bath hills. Am I getting there yet?

I'm better informed but still not there yet...

Whats the torque of the Santana?

It looks like it. Winsley Hill (see Strava) About 1/3rd

90kg

Thanks for the Wisper link. Nobody had said it was legally possible to have a throttle to assist on hills until now. https://wisperbikes.com/full-throttle-option/

I live in Bath where the hills are killers for us oldies. There are grants for 'ride to work' buyers of ebikes. Is there any grant support for oldies with health issues?

I bought a pedelec. A Raleigh Array Low Step. It was incapable of carrying me home up the steep hills needed to get me home. I've taken it back and after 3 weeks am still confused about what to replace it with. I'm told that a 250W motor is enough? So I rented a 250W ebike for a trial yesterday...
