Eliza and I have been thinking about buying some e-bikes for a long time. We live in a mountainous area and a traditional bike is fun, definitely a good workout, but also limits the number of times and places we’d bike. Having the e-bikes broadens our horizons quite a lot.

Most used e-bikes are sold at nearly retail price, I would have no idea how they were treated, and don’t come with any warranty. So, after searching for used e-bikes for many months, I decided to buy new.

I picked up two bikes from Lectric. An XP4 750 for me, and an XP Trike for her. We really love both of them. I particularly like that Eliza is on a super stable system that reduces my anxiety when she’s riding.
