I used to enjoy riding my regular bike but then moved to an area with some challenging hills and I’m a bit out of shape so I didn’t feel confident about braving those without help. Here comes my little lavender dream bike to help me tackle hills, long bike rides with the breeze in my hair, no more having to get off and do the walk of shame up the hills because my creaky knees gave up! The pedal assist has restored my confidence and gotten me outside, moving my body in a low impact and enjoyable way. The bike itself is stunningly made. I get so many compliments on it. My control panel looks different from my husband’s, who got the bluejay premier just like me, but in silver. His buttons are a bit different from mine but the functionality isn’t that different…something to be aware of if you get two bikes from here. Do yourself a favor and just get it. I was questioning an expense of this magnitude but you definitely get what you pay for in terms of quality. These bikes will last for a long time to come. I intend to put many miles on them!
