Was this a good impulse/ panic buy? (Cube Touring Hybrid One 500 ebike)
I have been on/ off considering getting an ebike for my commute for a while now.
I don't absolutely need one.. I am starting a new job and my commute is about 12km each way and pretty flat and easy but I often finish late or start really early and just thought I might want a little boost. I don't have a car so will also use it for getting around other places and shopping etc and thought it would make me less likely to Uber/ PT compared to a standard bike.
I had been looking at the Lekker Jordaan but I saw 99 Bikes had a 2022 Cube Touring Hybrid One 500 for 1799 (approx 1900 including delivery) and it was in my size so I just impulsively bit the bullet and bought it before it went out of stock (it was clearance and, as I suspected, there was only the one). I am now questioning whether I've made a terrible mistake and should have just thought about it more and either (a) used a simple push bike or (b) paid more and got the really pretty Lekker Jordaan like I planned...
