Halfords are reporting that 20% of all it's bike sales now are made up of e-bikes. Companies like major online cycle retailer Ribble are selling own brand e-bikes that are hard to tell apart from non electric bikes and motors are already available that fit inside a conventional frame. The UCI are using scanners to detect hidden motors in race bikes and more that one rider has been caught using them.
I'm now at the age where the hills seem longer and steeper and will consider one in the future.
