my dad just bought a electra townie 24 (http://www.electrabike.com/04/bikes/05bikes/twn/05_twn_20.html). hopefully this will get him addicted to biking, since he needs the good excercise and sheed all those ####s.
The ride is pretty weird, with the long wheelbase. my dad also replaced the thinner tires with 2.1' tires (he thinks that thin tires will not hold his weight).
Lots of kids comment the bike when its riden, they like the chopper look to it hehehe.

I haven't ridden one yet, but I hear great things about them. They seem to attract alot of people just getting back into or just starting with biking. Let's hope yer dad gets right into it. Maybe you'll be riding choppers soon!
