    Does not especially stick to the road, but only 135x13 tyres, so not expecting much.

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Quicker to get out and walk up the hills, but not too bad in a straight line.

  • Living with it

    Reliability

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Kept overheating, due to hose prob. Battery didn't last long.
