Hi from the Yorkshire Coast

[philuk]

Hey everyone, newbie here to EMTB but not really to bikes in general. Recently sold my Giant Trance X2 2013 which i loved but hadn't used for a few years. Getting to the ripe age of 35 and reasonably unfit i decided to go for a Trek Rail 5 with the 625 battery. Its due to land on 12th July and i cant wait! I've taken the cycle to work scheme offer at work for £500 and bought some new accessories and helmet etc.

Living in Scarborough on the Yorkshire Coast I have plenty of places to ride with Dalby less than 10 miles away!

I've ordered a tubeless kit to do pretty much straight away. Hoping to get some good ideas and advice from here!

Thanks
Phil

Welcome to the forum. You’ll love the bike. I know Scarborough well and there’s plenty of fun to be had right on your doorstep. Stairsets galore, the woods behind the mere, Cleveland way and of course Dalby, which you’ll smash your way around on the e bike
