I used to ride a front suspension mountain bike but am no longer healthy. It is detrimental to my health to go into excertion so I'm looking for an e-bike that still looks and feels like a mountain bike but requires very, very little pedaling
I understand throttle bikes are often without pedals but the one I've seen look more like scooters. I need a bike to fit like a bike, to have my back slightly rounded and legs pretty long. Can anyone advice me if there are bikes like this? I used to ride 20 mile on rough tracks and hard tracks, up and down hill. I realise I might need to compromise and accept that. Thanks in advance.
 
I live way out in the sticks and wanted a bike that could handle the terrain and still be comfortable for my beat to pieces body. I ended up getting a Ridstar E26 pro with dual 1,000w motors and full suspension. The same or similar would probably work for you as well. I do not ride the he-- out of it like a younger me would have but I can cross incredibly rough ground without issue and without beating myself to pieces!
 
Lise - I bought my Velotric for weight my 6’4 frame and heavy weight - I went with a large step over frame and it is very easy to pedal for me with 3 ride modes and 5 PAS modes -like you, I used to mountain bike, and bought this because it looks like a bike, not a moped - there are many different options, but this one suited me well - it has a throttle too, but I only use it to get going
