Ballenxj I have several friends riding e-bikes out of medical necessity. All are enjoying being able to continue to ride. The day may come when I need one, would not hesitate at that point. Been lately thinking of adding a few teeth to the rear cassette, going to see how it goes as I get more riding in this year. Last year, I was still riding up a steep hill that I've seen some much younger than I, walk it. Haven't tried it yet this year.
