Hi - I'm looking for advice on what to buy....
For context - I have an old e bike (2018?) it's a G tech escent and not made at all any more. It's broken and nobody can fix it...
I'm a 55 year old woman - fit but not wild - who wants the bike for a couple of things
1) most of the year commuting to work on/off road (flat) about 10 miles round trip
2) a month or so in the Summer - in the French Alps on MTB trails
Please don't tell me I need 2 bikes (maybe I do?!) but I'd love some advice / examples of bikes that might suit me. I'm not looking for a 10K+ bike but looking for a decent spec for my requirements. Thanks!

Only you knows what fits you but check out all the different Specialized Turbo Tero versions.
Most important is where you buy the bike due to customer services.

thanks - that looks like the sort of thing I'm after - stupid question - can you remove the battery to charge it? in the Alps I'm in a first floor apartment without much space and no power-point in my bike store.

If you got the budget go for a Tero 5.0 or the full suspension X 6.0 both got the 90nm motor and removable battery.
Find a shop to test ride a Tero.
