First Time E-Bike Rider From Tucson Arizona

[rcdanner]

I have been a road bike rider since 1988. I started riding to get exercise and lose weight that as a desk bound 40 something guy needed. Riding was my passion for 25 years until my arthritic knees just wouldn’t pull me up the hills anymore. My Trek carbon road bike has sat in the garage for 6 years unused. Then I found EBR and began reading about e-bikes. I bought a new FLX Roadster a few weeks ago. Life changer! I can now pedal up the hills with just enough assistance. I am smiling on every ride. I am getting my exercise now on a fun bike. Over 250 miles in just the first two weeks. The FLX Roadster is a great looking bike with lots of good features. It also didn’t break the bank which was important to me for a completely new unknown venture. I had never ridden an e-bike before my online purchase from the great folks at FLX. I am so glad I chose FLX. The bike is great and the customer support is outstanding. Tucson is great bike riding territory. Practically year-round riding weather with good bike paths and roads. I can’t wait until every morning to get on my new bike and out on the road for a nice 20 mile ride. I am looking forward to longer rides and taking it to other states for some different scenery.
