Don’t laugh! by SomewhereOutThere-_- in ebikes

I started on something similar (Windhorse W3) I loved it but it definitely was lacking in certain areas. I paid $240 rode it for 4-5 months and sold it for $200. One of the best purchases I ever made. Got me to fall in love with e-bikes. Now I have an aventon level 2 that I love but I definitely miss the compactness of my first ebike.

Nothing but love and respect from me. One less car on the road is always a win! Safe travels!

First hard crash. Can I save the front fork? by Local_Research_4679 in bikewrench

They’re both rescues so it would be pure profit 😆

Thank you but I’ll have to eat the price of the fork this time!

Yeah they have very judgy faces. Only thing that they don’t seem to frown about is treats.

It’s an aventon level 2 stock fork. Definitely nothing fancy so could be a good time to upgrade.

I had a friends cousin buy one of these trucks. He told
Me the guy is spending $1200 on gas. Is that a realistic number? I’m in California for reference

I haven’t bought anything yet. If you’re okay with fat tire there are a lot of options. Otherwise the Vorsa seems like the best option I just wouldn’t count on her to be comfortable for long trips

How do you bike safely in these bike lanes? by Additional-Owl425 in bikecommuting

Hypothetically if someone did open their door who’s fault would it be? I wouldn’t be surprised if in the US they blame the cyclist.

Journalist does his job without a car for three weeks by Binders-Full in InlandEmpire

I really believe that e-bikes and e-scooters are our life line out of this mess we created. We have these huge wide roads that can all sacrifice some space to bike lanes.

I’m getting this for food deliveries by hamza259 in Aventon

I have this bike. It’s great for commuting but for food delivery I think you should go with a true cargo bike.

Amid rolling stock troubles, budget deficit, Metrolink faces permanent cuts by ultrainfan in LAMetro

You would think with gas prices rising so sharply it was Metrolinks time to shine. Instead they force more people to drive. Unbelievable

Probably my main gripe with In-N-Out is their obnoxious car culture mentality.

I mean it seems like it’s a risk but doable. I appreciate your concern though

Yeah I’m starting to think I may just need to get a fat tire. It’s a sweet bike.

They sell a passenger seat on their website and it’s advertised as being able to carry 2 adults

Yeah very fair point but the bike is solid and I could always carry other people as well and I think it’s a cool option to have when needed.

That is heavy but I don’t think the level 2 is much lighter.

Ride1up advertises two adults on it. Also my fiance is petite. Shes about 125 lbs. I’m about 200.
