What do I need to look out for picking a bike? I need one thats good for riding up a hill , my budget is approximately £1000 . There is so many to choose from and I seriously am not sure whats important to have in a good one. Battery life and km range fair enough but how can I tell its a powerful one and whats too heavy. Thanks
