Situation is that he is a really nice lad, has a job and goes to work every day but doesn't do any excersize. He is aware this needs to change and i get the impression he wants to change so we (me and his dad) are looking at ways to get him interested. His dad it very fit and active so he won't engage there but says he will do the park runs if i will and may come cycling with me (borrowing one of his dad's bikes) but it's hilly here so that won't work which got us wondering if buying him an ebike would do the trick. I rarely buy cheap or used but cost is a big issue, hence the halfords inclusion as they seem to be reasonable bikes for the money as long as the cutouts issue has been fixed.
Unfortunately I am unavailable for the park runs due to a more pressing family commitment, and cos it's winter the cycling is a more forward looking project.
