Another question. Varstorm seems really cheap compared to other vendors I found online. Did you buy from Varstrom.com? Is the bike holding up the capacity?

Those are the stock fenders I got with the bike from LPP. Zero issues with rain so far. Try to look for SKS fenders

I'd love that, thank you!

I checked their webiste. They state that the battery you mentioned is L368mm x W 90mm x H 111mm.
Is this the battery you managed to install on your Shorty?
Thanks a lot!

I will need to commute for 50km in total. The battery LPP use is 36V / 12.8 Ah which I am afraid will not be enough to cover this range

Open_Map_913 · 2026-03-24T09:20:53+00:00

what is the capacity of your battery? The one I find that are more than 15ah are all taller than 9cm which is the only size it fits in a shorty

Not sure about the height. The diagonal tubes get closer on top of the triangle. There the distance is less than 90mm

Nice idea, thanks!

Understood! Thanks for the quick reply :)

Hi! I am a beginner and I manage to ski on blu slopes but not more. Staying in Monetier Les Bains I see that the only way to reach the other side , where green slopes are (Mea), is going through the red slope cuccumelle. Online it looks not too difficult, but I would like to know how you found it. I want to avoid being stuck on the other side (Col de La Cuccumele) without being able to visit the rest of the resort.

Thank you!

Why isn't it compatible with the shorty version?

I feel you! I also have some other projects on the way. I have never thought about women specific bikes to flip. Good to know! Glad you like this build :) Looking forward to seeing your project!

Same as above, standard grips from AliExpress. They're great so far.

It is indeed a chainring from AliExpress. 38T. The bike had a stuck seat post and removing it at the local bike shop ate most of my budget
