This week shopping and my post to #MarketFriday community is special for me because this thing is big, rather expensive and very important for me!
It's our first e-bike, and we were very attentive choosing it.
My Dad always used traditional bikes to go to our garden, but now the road there has a huge hill, and it's impossible to ride there by bike, my Daddy needs to go on foot, and it's rather long.
We decided to buy a E-bike.
We were seeking for it for about 1 month! We couldn't find anything in my city, so we had to use web-sites and shipping services.
At last we found what we needed!
It's folding, it had necessary for us technical characteristics, and desirable diameter of wheels - 20".
That's my Dad's requests;)
The price of it was 60,000 rubles = 900$, and it was rather nice for this kind of e-bike + we had free shipping, great luck;)
We spent about 2 hours to assemble a bike.
Are e-bikes popular in your place?
Here they're becoming more and more popular!
We even had to use video instruction for it;)
But it's perfect!
My Dad is happy, and so we are;)
It works fine, and now it takes only 12 min to go to the garden!
A new bike is certainly happy, can have many benefits. Thank you.
Nice bike!

This is awesome! What is not to love!?? I can only imagine how happy your dad is! E-bikes are really popular here, although most use public transportation of means of transport for commuting. The e-bikes are used by mostly retired folks who have the time. Most who commute use a regular bike to get a few hours of exercise in.
I am not sure about the prices and how it fares, but, it sounds reasonable to me for that kind of bike. Tell me, is he still pleased with it? I am sure that it has made life a lot nicer for him.
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday
