My scenario - Just retired, problem with right knee and live in a hilly area.
Looking to buy 2 x electric touring bikes with some off road ability for wife & myself, and sell our existing Bromptons which are rarely used - due to the hills!
Went to e-bikes in Bodiam, test drove a hub driven bike, can't remember the name, but it was just OK. I then tried a 2018 Haibike Sduro Trekking 4. Amazing difference, a really nice bike to ride.
My ideal budget is to spend £1500 on each bike.
However before I commit to the Haibike can the collective give me advice on alternatives? Also if the Haibike is a good choice, should I perhaps go for Xduro with the bigger 500w battery.
Thanks in advance
Robin
