Thanks all for the answers! Really valuable.
It'll be for commuting / shopping / pottering, but we live quite close to Richmond park and go there occasionally for a lesiurely ride. I wanted to check that it would literally be geared to get up the hills there, I'd hazard that if you can ride the Lakes on one it'll be able to manage it (great pictures @C4r1s). It's probably not a deal breaker as the commuting alone is enough of a use case to justify getting one.
By only bike, I meant that it could be a replacement for the touring bike that she currently rides, which it sounds like it can be.
Thanks again!
