Kadizzle is approaching 5,000 miles on the ebike. That works out to about $1,250 in fuel savings at today's prices. The ebike has turned out to be one of the best things Kadizzle ever purchased. The German engineered bike has been very trouble free. Now that we live on top of a very steep hill the bike is a savior. On most days Kadizzle makes at least two trips up and down the incline.
A lot of people do not understand how the bikes function. The bike will not go if you do not peddle. Secondly you select how much help the motor provides. On the steep hill Kadizzle will be huffing and puffing even with the help of the motor. You will get all the exercise you want. Have not met one person who regretted buying an ebike. Try one if you can. Be ready to purchase an ebike. If you try it you will want one.
The real beauty of the ebike is it keeps old farts going. Winky just did a mountain ride with a younger set of geezers on regular mountain bikes. She was able to enjoy the ride and keep up. The Kadizzles have had some fantastic ebike rides. One of the absolute best was in the Badlands of North Dakota.
If you live somewhere with stores a short distance away the ebike is ideal to get to the store for the lime or lemon you forgot. Almost every day we take a short ride down and around the nearby lakes.
Another nice thing about the bikes is you can pop them on and off the bike rack on the back of the truck or car. If you get to a little town and you want to explore it, park the car and use the bike. It is so much better.
You can by an ebike with a throttle. Ours have no throttles. With a throttle you do not have to pedal at all. Of course if you do no peddling you will get no exercise. How far can you go? The longest trip Kadizzle ever made was 57 miles. He could have gone farther, but decided to use more power near the end of the ride. On our bikes you can always go 25 miles under the worst of conditions. More than likely you will wear out before the battery does.
