Electric bike

I am looking at a 'harrier eco power electric bike' for sale. Wondered if anyone knows much about them.

Depends how much it is and how old it is. You can buy a new one from Halfords which looks the same Coyote Connect Folding Electric Bike £599.99 so a second hand one would be worth about £300. If the battery goes you can spend a couple of hundred on a new one.

If you've not already decided........

I've ordered one of these: Electric Bike, Bicycle Assist, Pedal Assist, All in one design, Urban Cycling | Smart Wheel
And I'm going to fit it to one of these: Urban Bikes - Single Speed and Fixed Bikes - Best Urban Bikes
Not too much weight on the back of the Motorhome.

You can of course convert a standard mountain bike to electric. I converted our two with a kit from China.... BMS Battery website.

Great fun and they go up hills as if they are not there.
