It is a beaut, with small wheels so I do not have far to fall off. It also folds in half (plus the handle bar can fold down) so it fits in the back of my car. I searched everywhere for one but could only find chunky ones for extortionate prices. But then I found a chap in Queensland who sells from the internet and he delivered mine to me for just under Au$1400. It has never let me down.Amfortashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474382097575605017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130463693430089737.post-74299499484236267032017-03-06T09:41:49.046-08:002017-03-06T09:41:49.046-08:00Hi DAD, mine is a Haibike Sduro 4.0 at just over €...Hi DAD, mine is a Haibike Sduro 4.0 at just over €2,000, Anita's is a Evelo at around half that. The price also depends on the battery life/range that you want to get out of it.<br /><br />I bought them from a specialist eBike shop in Le Mans where they seem to have a decent after-sales service.<br /><br />Normally you can buy replacement batteries; depending on usage you should get about 5 years out of one. Replacement prices are of the order of a few hundred euro.Mark In Mayennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14987723233401368368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130463693430089737.post-21657916723401124212017-03-06T08:37:24.934-08:002017-03-06T08:37:24.934-08:00Can you give makes and (approx) price, please? ...Can you give makes and (approx) price, please? All here in France profond are about €1000, which seem expensive. Some of the Supermarket chains are a little cheeper, but I an not sure of after-service. Would one be able to buy a new battery when it becomes necessary. <br />Merci.DADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07380616722854929936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130463693430089737.post-80987930716610125482017-03-06T01:04:44.144-08:002017-03-06T01:04:44.144-08:00Again, most interesting and think it is the way to...Again, most interesting and think it is the way to go in older age.James Highamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14525082702330365464noreply@blogger.com
