Hi all new to the forums so looking forward to some good advice about e biking. Have looked around their is lots of advice here if anything too much. Head is about to explode. So best I just ask the experts myself about my needs.
I’m looking for an all round e-bike that can do most things. The plan is to use it for commute to work 12 mile round trip with a couple of big hills both ways. I am also planning to use it for pleasure I like photography so this bike will be used along long bike tracks around country lanes costal paths possibly 50 mile round trips in a day. I’m also a big chap 18stone 5.10 height but hope to lose a bit using the bike. I live in Swansea South Wales not to many e-bike stockest in my area Halfords have a couple with their urban mover range. Prices vary from £699 to £1200.Batery on the lower priced are 26v as the £1200 is 37v both seem to be rated at 200w.Found another stockest which had a Giant e-bike which was priced just under £1700 a bit on the pricy side for me so have dismissed it. So I have a limit of up to £1200 max but don’t want to spend that sort of money not unless I have to. Thinking of getting a bike with spare battery to give me more range within my budget. So what do you think my best options are? Thank you all for reading this and for any advice you can give me.Thankyou.
