Hi everyone. I’m new to ebikes. I haven’t ridden a bike properly for several years now and am keen to Start again to improve my fitness and get out more. I’m a 51 year old bloke and quite unfit.
I will be riding mainly on country lanes and tarmac /gravel paths with a bit around town as well. There will be some hills and I am quite unfit at the moment. I want an upright seating position due to back problems I’ve had in the past. I am not necessarily seeking huge distances - perhaps a range of up to 50/60 miles should be fine (more would be a bonus if using the assistance more).
I’ve short listed my preferred models to either the Volt Pulse or Moustache Samedi xroad 27.1. The Volt would be from a local bike shop and the Moustache likely from Fully Charged.
Before I delve deeper I would be interested in anybodys experience of either (or both). I like the Volt as it’s British but I am wondering if the mid motor on the Moustache may be better for me?
All thoughts and opinions of the options would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
