When I was asked by my aunt if we would use an electric bicycle and asked to my son about this, he answered back soon that he did want it!!
The reason is that he goes on many and pretty steep up and down ways to school by normal heavy bicycle every day.
We thought it was also a good exercise for him.
He didn't have found the comfortableness unless he tried it before, but unfortunately he did once by borrowing it from his friend.
It was like a thunderbolt out of the blue to him!
He could go up a steep slide without getting it off at all and would go to school in a half time. Ahaha.
And then, the bicycle was bought for my uncle by himself but all his family were against to ride it, that's why he doesn't ride at least once. Though it was left there without using, it's still in a good condition.
Soon we went to his house to get it and my son wanted to use it, but oh my god! We couldn't put the air into tires with our air pump...
According to a bicycle shop, we have to bring the bicycle to get a new pump...
I can't put it into the car by myself because it's too heavy. My son has to stand until this weekend.
前に、親戚のおじさんから電動自転車を使わないか？と訊ねてくれていたのを、うちの長男に話したら・・・・
かなりの高低差のあるアップダウンの多い道を、重い普通の自転車で毎日通っている長男は、「欲しい！」と即答。
聞くと、一度友達に電動自転車を借りたことがあるらしく、その時にかなりの衝撃が脳裏を走ったそうです。
立ち漕ぎをしなくても坂を登れるし、半分の時間で学校に行けるやん！っていろんな衝撃があったらしい、笑。
で、肝心の自転車は、伯父さんが新しく自分で乗ろうと買ったものの、家族から反対されて一度も乗らずに、ほぼ１年放置していたそうで、ほぼサラピン状態でした。
早速、昨日の試合を観に行く前に貰いに行き、明日から乗って行くぞ！って張り切っていたのに、タイヤの空気入れの口が合わない・・・。
今日自転車屋に電話したら、自転車の型番だけでなく、実際のタイヤを見ないことには、どの口があっているのかは分からないと言われ、息子はとても残念がっていました。
私一人じゃあ、重い自転車を担いで車に乗せることが出来ないもんなあ。
暫くお預けだね～～わは。
