Itching to Get Back In the Saddle

[MRMAC9]

Hello from Belfast. I'm in my 65th year and have not cycled regularly for more than 20 years. I have been researching electric bikes for months now with the view to buying one. I want to use it for visiting local National Trust properties and visiting relatives 10-15 miles away without having to use my bus pass. Belfast does not have a great range of bikes to choose from. High end bikes such as Kalkhoffs or Haibikes are not available. I would prefer to buy from a well-established local shop rather than go online. The FULL CYCLE shop have the 2015 Freego models with the 16 Ah Eagle retailing at £1599. I am seriously considering buying that one. I may visit the shop for a try out in the very near future.

Thank you Scott. I am finding this forum so interesting but I am not 100% certain what bike to go for with a budget of £1500-£2000.

All I would say it test ride as many models as you can mistakes can be costly don't rush into anything.
