I haven’t been on a bicycle in more than 20 years so I was a little intimidated when my new e-bike showed up. It arrived a little quicker than I expected and was really quite easy to assemble. I took the advice in the instructions and wheeled it to an open space for my first ride and I was glad I did because it goes like a rocket when you first start to peddle, but once you get used to the speed settings and the gears it is truly a joy to ride. This is a great option for a retired person to get around town and have some fun while doing so!
