My brother was thinking of getting an ebike but as we all can agree they look a bit meh - so after some googling I found this - https://www.sigmasports.com/item/Bianchi/Aria-E-Road-Ultegra-Disc-Electric-Road-Bike-2019/JTMK?co=GBR&cu=GBP&glCountry=GB&id=924890&gclsrc=aw.ds&&gclid=Cj0KCQjwjrvpBRC0ARIsAFrFuV-1yn3KTu1DSSofflE8_ONZ_OMJW3OM9uDfgOV9lf93j2rTddy7PJQaAjVsEALw_wcB which we think looks pretty cool...
to be honest I’d never given much thought to ebikes but it got me thinking about how it would be awesome to cover greater distances quicker on a commuter machine - if cycling to town from Tunbridge Wells currently takes me 2hrs40 each way I’d love to be able to get this down to 1hr30 (I know that means doing about 40km/hr) whilst still having to put some work in... 🤔🤷♂️
