I found not all UPS locations have the machines, or are even aware that there are other UPS locations offering the 3D print service. I needed to print a weird part a few weeks ago, and I determined it was cheaper to buy a 3D printer than quote middlemen's time to setup and print the simple...

Sweet. There may be sufficient length in the headlight harness to mount this on the front of the basket (remove the controller cover and pull out any extra length hiding in there). Did you use ABS, PETG, or PLA for this? Please feel free to load up the *.stl to Thingaverse if you're feeling...

@Stefan Mikes One of the VP pedals I received was DOA from a quality control standpoint. The cro-mo threading was off significantly and had chunks of sandpaper grit entombed in the black thread paint. Even being gentle spinning these on with allen key stripped the delicate threads on my crank...

Same here. After a bad set of VP, I went with Moto Reflex Flat (with quick USA air shipment from Germany) and I'm very happy with them. See post/picts further above 👆

The Lectric bikes don't come with a useful head tube M5/M6 accessories bracket, like on other folding bikes...Dahon/Brompton/Qualisports/Tern etc...just curious if anyone has 3d designed/printed a solution/workaround for this?

Not sure if anyone else has responded to your question. I'd contact Qualisports directly so that they have the customer service opportunity to guide you, or make it right.

@Kathy Smith I'm not sure, but I have to assume the sacrificial plastic bit is more important than I had first thought for taking the over-levered tightening pressure off the metal. All the quick releases seem to have some version of this. The plastic bit is a different shape than the quick...

That looks like a good setup @ilgaz77 with the rear basket. Due to the short wheelbase, I have to be mindful to position my feet over the pedals a little bit differently when I am in cargo mode to avoid the back of my heels clipping the rear baskets, using middle of my foot on pedal, rather...

@ilgaz77 yeeeeeahhh, I wanted to have a brighter 12v ATV light bar for trail use, and long story short, I killed my front light via burning out the wee controller box sacrificial fuse. There's a thread on that here, with the punchline being: don't do what I did. Lols. For now, I use a clip on...

@Kathy Smith the chemotrophic bacteria that eats the oxydized ferrous iron in metals like cro-mo is easy to kill, then seal from further attacks. Sometimes hard to find, my favorites for the tool shed are: Corrosion-X and Boeshield T-9 (made by Boeing for jet engines, landing gear etc). In the...

I haul three pretty-big insulated grocery zipbags in fold-away baskets with no prob (one off camera). Lots of canned goods and bottles too. They're heavy, maybe 40lbs on rear. The front rack is a weird shape too small for the third, but I bungee it on, maybe 15-20lbs. Longer-term I may opt...

@ilgaz77 sadly, the factory KT-LCD5 display for my bike, arrived unworkably smashed. I bought a newer full-color KT-LCD8H on Ebay for $47 that came with the convenient usb mobile charge port, and it's great. I must say, QS were good about everything and rebated my out of pocket on that and a...

<<runs to bike, checks battery for pin>>

Basically a mobile 600 grit exfoliation block. You could probably retrofit with 400 on the other side to really buff out any rough heel spots before the date night.

If anyone is like me and just wants a barefoot/flipflop-friendly ebike pedal, with grip paper, I replaced the dud VP-831P (see above) with Moto Urban Flat "Reflex" from Germany. Pretty happy with these. Although it doesn't look like it in the photo, the orange reflector strip perfectly...

Sounds like either bad luck hardware fault or maybe weird voltage sags and surges at your charge spot. With the new stuff, maybe get into the habit of plugging everything in under the seat and adding the wall outlet input power last. That way, any surge/spark happens between the wall outlet...

The Lesser Cayman Rock Iguana are commonly 3-4 feet; the ducklings are usual size/speed, when crossing.

Signage from Little Cayman...so many rules, man.

Just curious, were IndieGoGo/Kickstarter Metro Mules shipped? Any out there in the wild?
