My Kudos Tourer arrived today and although I haven't been able to give it a good go yet, I did try it on the hill right outside my house. It's a fair hill, not the steepest near me but not a shallow hill either. Anyway, off I set and like Iffy who reported on his Kudos King yesterday I too started off like a maniac and thought, blimey this is hard work. Then I changed up gears which is not what people normally do on a hill and the peddles slowed down and the bike got faster. I love my Kudos tourer
I haven't been on a bike for about 20 years and I think I'd be walking up that same hill on a non powered bike. I think I must be wrong but I'm sure I saw 20KMH on the way up. I might have been dreaming and I'll give it a proper go at the weekend and report back.
