Hey guys,
I'm looking to buy an electric bike. I'm mainly going to use it for my commute to work, but I'd also use it for trips to the shop etc. I'm looking at the carrera crossfire e but I'm not sure if the battery will be big enough, and I've read about the issues regarding battery cutting out. The style is pretty much what I'm looking for, although I'm wondering about bikes with the battery built into the frame?
I'll be looking to charge it no more than once a week. It's a 9 mile round trip to work with a few hills (living in Sheffield). I'm fairly fit and weigh about 75 kg, height 5'11. Is this a reasonable expectation?
Budget... I don't mind paying extra for something that'll be perfect, but ideally around the £1k range, maybe a bit more.
Thanks!
