Hi to all from LA. I've been reading this forum for a while as I searched for an Ebike that would suit my needs and my wallet, sometimes a difficult combination! lol.
I've been looking at Ebikes for a couple of years. I used to race on the road and track, on non-electric bikes, with moderate success at local levels. I was riding about 250 miles/week in training. But then a rather continuous string of injuries, spaced so that I was never able to fully recover from one before another came along, sidelined me.
I really missed my bikes and I think that the best way to recover is with an Ebike, which will allow me to get my heart rate up with low impact workouts, but still allow me to get home, if I overdo it.
A couple of weeks ago, on another forum, a lightly used Wallke X3 Pro came available and I jumped on it. I'm slowly putting on the miles (slow - because my previous riding experience let me know that I'm prone to saddle sores). Yes, I know, TMI.
Anyway, I'm happy that I found this place, it's chock full of useful info.
