I took a Ridge Rider for a test ride and liked it so much I ordered one.
40 years of running + arthritis has taken its toll on my knees. I can still run, but only if I wear my 'Forest Gump' knee braces, so I've decided to take up cycling instead.
At first my knees were fine, but now that I'm cycling over 100km per week I'm noticing a small amount of pain in both knees.
I'm hoping the RR can take the stress off my knees while going up steep hills and I'm really looking forward to doing a lot more trail riding.
As for the throttle, I like it a lot. I found I used it a number of times while trail riding. It's great for powering over small logs, etc., that were across the trail.
I didn't look at the Stomer because the nearest Pedego dealer is only 10 minutes from my house, while the closest Stomer dealer is a 2 hour drive, one way, or a 2 hour ferry ride.
