Make sure the bike is from a local dealer, as if anything goes wrong with the motor, you need to be able to go to your dealer.
Bosch, Shimano, Brose are all good. Try to avoid cheap no name stuff.
For my wife a dropper post gave her heaps more confidence as going downhill, she can drop the seat...
As already mentioned, up to 2000m climb is no problem on an e-bike as long as you limit yourself to eco or tour (Bosch Motor). It is tempting to up the power and up the speed, but then you can't do the climbs.
Just remember the slower you go, the further you can go, as you have more time to add...
The string is as long as the string is.
My apologies. A f..ing stupid question that I hate answering as I like to use my legs where others don't. But I like the idea.
I'm also heading towards the 61,000km mark and loving it. Also as fit as I ever was, largely due to the eMTB. Long challenging rides is what does it for me.
Also windFoiling when I can.
Here's a Ride I did with a couple of other same age old farts on Sunday.
HI, I'm from New Zealand where we stole the land from the native Maoris. Now I'm living in Germany where Hitler used to rule, and a few KM from Dachau Concentration camp!
Come and visit me... I can book you a room!
We could also add Brakes, Bars, Boobs and bums, but we might be drifting off the subject there.
I'll steer back in the right direction by mentioning baseball cap, beret, billycock, biretta, boater, as @Megavolt doesn't have a helmet on in that photo! :eek:
Maybe I'm old enough need the beer to make the babes attractive! (At least the ones I would have a chance with)
So I'll re-order to Bikes first then beer, babes and the bratwurst at the end, coz a good Dönner can be a good substitute!
I'm interested in biking... not politics.
I was the first to answer and thought about the political side of things. But I agree with what SUBcyclist said.
Cube has a good range of bike sizes. My wife isn't the tallest and is happy with hers. The only disadvantage of the small bikes is that the 750Wh battery doesn't fit in.
The 140 mm travel bikes have 29 inch wheels, and the 160 mm travel bikes have 27.5
Servus und Gidday from Munich,
Welcome to the forums.
Sorry, no idea about the battery cover.
Try to find a handler.
