When I first became interested in e-bikes, it was simply as an aid to exercise. I live in an area filled with hills, and many are too steep for me to handle on a conventional bike. I also did not like getting my heart rate nice and high going uphill, and then suddenly being forced to rest on the steep downhill. After several weeks of research, I selected magicyclebike.com as the best bang-for-the buck. My e-bikes have made hill country exercise much more efficient. After a few weeks of riding, it didn't take me long to discover the other many benefits of e-bike riding...improved health, joint flexibility and strength, economical transportation, loads of fun, programmable pedal assist (sweat a little, a lot, or not at all).
