Just purchased the above bike. I'm not particularly unfit or anything, just wanted something to get me twice as far.
Well not off to a great start because I bought the bike blind and as a result the seat post is too long so I'm ordering a shorter one (having trouble getting back on the seat from the upright position). I was impatiently thinking about cutting the original down to size but changed my mind.
I've hardly used the bike because of the aforementioned issue but in the short time I have I certainly like the way it climbs hills with such ease. It's not as heavy as I envisioned. The display is easy to use, functional and illuminated for the dark. There's an intriguing walk button on the control I've yet to try.
Cons so far : The gears are terrible, maybe need to get them set up. Cheap pedals compared to those provided with my £500 mtb. Instructions appear a bit out of date. Service register is in German. I don't like how it cuts out at 15mph but I guess the battery will last ages this way.
Just need to find people to do long distance mtb rides.
