Bent Fork... isn't that where cousin Ernie's from?

Hard to see but it does have a small hub motor... but I think he brick'd his controller 🙃

After spending only $ for an extremely heavy and somewhat high-power fitness/cargo bike (Erectric Terdo SH), I've been determined to keep it that way by not giving a flock 🙃

You could mount the front hub motor so that it spins in the opposite direction... Now that'll give you some braking!

From silicone grease.. to Slickoleum.. to posting pics.... The notion that less can be more eludes you 🙃

I never used anything but the stock 46t chainring and guard... So I guess search Amazon and Ali. Seems there's a bit more available since I retired my BBS 3 years ago

It's thought of as a toy because for the most part in the US it is. The landscape in the US is much different and much more wide spread than it is in Europe and so is economic mobility. In the 28 years I was in the workforce there were very few instances where commuting by bicycle would have...

In principle I'm against bailouts... But if you can justify giving them to financial institutions that are often at the rotten core of a shit_show... I'm perfectly OK with giving them to a business that actually produces a product. An auto manufacturer is a lot harder to replace than a bank...

Testing the battery should be pretty straightforward. See if it will take a full charge. Then test sag under load. Temperature affect is more with charge/discharge... Not storage. That said, proper storage voltage is important

Buying any DTC bike you better know your way around basic mechanical/electrical. And then... avoid proprietary.

Sounds like they drew first blood. 🙃

I concur. I'd watch current draw way before speed. These motors love to spin and traveling fast adds cooling so you can probably run it all day long without issue. Now slamming high current in or being in too high of a gear is much more detrimental, especially when climbing. If you haven't...

I just tow a spare bike 🙃

Someone reminds me of this. . .
