The father in law (mid 60s) has decided to get himself into better shape this year, and would like to do some cycling, which I think is great. He lives in a pretty hilly area though, and would like a bit of help on the hills, so has decided an e-bike is the way forward. Again, great idea IMO.
Now the problem is, he's asked for my advice on choosing one. I know bugger all about e-bikes, so I'm hoping someone on here has some expertise.
He'd prefer flat bar, and the budget is £2k, though he'd rather spend less if he can. It needs to be something in stock or with a short (and reliable) lead time.
Does anyone have any recommendations? Google/the usual review websites are proving less helpful than I'd hoped. Thanks in advance.
