My wife struggles to ride her bike, since having a leg operation, a couple of years ago.
Not only does she have problems with overall strength uphill (which she always struggled with, to be honest) but when she is tired, and wants to stop, her leg will often give way as she puts her foot on the ground.
The solution seems to be an e-trike, as this would help with overall effort involved, and allow her to come to a stop without having to hold the bike up.
Now, such a thing is not cheap, so some kind of test would seem to be in order. Does anybody know of a place that rents e-trikes, so we can go for a realistic test ride – preferably somewhere with a traffic free route (on a repurposed railway line, for instance)
We’re based in Sussex, so somewhere in that area would be preferred, but we’re visiting Swansea later in the year, so that would be an option.
Cheers
