    Hills

    So I have two ebikes. One is can't get me up most hills. The heavy fat tire one has pushed me up hills.

    Help! Can you help me find an E-bike?

    Help! Can you help me find an E-bike?

    I would've wanted a more powerful bike is so I could get up steeper hills and I guess maybe to throttle up a hill without much leg effort because it takes it's toll on me. But I don't want the bike taken from me. I can't afford to replace it.

    Do police even bother to check if an e-bike is legal?

    I bought an ebike labelled 250 watts and all that because I didn't want ot have my investment seized. It's been less than a week and I haven't been riding more than 30 mins a day, and I've seen an electric scooter in the bike lane, a guy throttling his e - bike down the cycle lane at like 30...

    which city are you in? I'm in London. I don't know if police enforce the e bike law down here but I wouldn't want to waste so much money getting one confiscated.
