Road-friendly ebikes

Let’s face it, riding a bicycle is much better when you’ve got a little helping hand in the power department, whether that’s a long downhill or a tailwind. But, of course, this isn’t particularly practical, especially when you live somewhere that is both very hilly and very windy.

The solution? An ebike, of course. Ignore what the naysayers might tell you - even if you’re as fit as a fiddle, riding an ebike is one of the best experiences out there.

You get all the advantages of cycling, as you might expect, with the benefit of a little extra leg help when you need it. There are also very few downsides, other than the higher price tag (over an equivalent bike) and a bit of a weight gain; a side effect of the battery and motor doing the work for you. That said, the tech is constantly improving, and ebikes are getting lighter as time goes on.
