Thanks! We went with the beetle blue, but that and the orange are nice standout colors. Cargo bikes like these should definitely be on the radar for anyone who wants to haul kids, they're pretty amazing!

Actually this site (https://bicycleuniverse.com/bicycle-safety-almanac/) backs up an approximately 3-11x higher risk of death per mile while biking v in a car.

Do you have any source for those numbers? The last time I checked the death rate for cars was about 1.18 in 100 million vehicle miles (https://www.nhtsa.gov/press-releases/usdot-releases-2016-fatal-traffic-crash-data) and the death rate for motorcycles was approximately 37 times as high...

Just updating on my final purchase, which was a curveball even for me! I went with the 2018 Tern GSD. During my shopping / research, my wife became interested in starting to bike commute (once our newborn is old enough to do so) after I showed her how she could make her commute mostly by bike...

I suspect you are right Ravi. I tried a few ebikes when I first started looking, in the $1-2k range. I tried a Turbo Vado (around $5k) thinking there was no way I would buy something that expensive, just to see what I was missing out on. It completely blew me away, while the others had been fun...

Thanks all! I checked and can for sure try out the Big Easy and Pedego locally, I will plan some test rides. I love steel bikes and the Big Easy seems to have a "hybrid" looking ride style rather than a cruiser style, so that is a very interesting find. The Radwagon I had noticed before, given...

Hi all, I would like an ebike that: -is class 1 (20 mph cutoff) so I can legally take it on local bike trails, -can carry two kids (I have one 3 y/o and one on the way, plan to carry both once the second is 1 y/o), -can handle gravel / dirt paths (some of the best bike paths around me fit this...

Loving these stories! I got my Supercommuter 8s about a month ago. Before that I bike commuted about 8 miles to work around half off the time. I had to wake up early to do so, which my wife did not love. I loved the ride, but also had some dread before each 45-minute trip. I also carried very...

Thanks all! Ravi, that trailer looks amazing. Definitely expensive but it may be worth it. Has anyone out there used any cheaper / more traditional trailers with any success? And if so is there anything I should look for (such as suspension)?

I bought a Burley trailer on Craigslist that is probably around 10 years old. It worked fine for a year with my old bike, but recently I got a Supercommuter 8s. After a 16 mile ride at around 20 mph I noticed the right wheel was loose and I tightened it back up. The next time I took it out (with...
