Hello,
Started biking again, two years ago, at age 72. Statins have weaked my legs, so I'm pretty much
confined to flat roads. I mainly ride bike paths & gravel trails.
My bike is a trek Dual Sport, which works fine. E-bikes look like the
answer to my weak leg issue. They will help me last longer and conquer hills.
So far, I've tested a Trek mx-700, but found the ride too uncomfortable.
I also took out a Trek DS e-bike, which felt a lot like the Dual Sport. I haven't seen any reviews on it, but the components must be like the Conduit. It seems to handle the ride that I'm after--but I'm wondering if there are any other e-bikes, in the same price range, that I ought to be checking out?
I'm 5'11" and 175 lbs.
Thanks.
