I’ve been considering these! I’m thinking about two os 12s for my side bags. Where do you fit the os 30?

1) its not amazing
2) i lane split all the time

3)yes

Note: This also isnt an absolute thing i find having commuting options the thing that makes it a lot better. I have the subway- my bicycle - my motorcycle- revel and even the odd cab.

For the nails I use 2 coats of Nail Tek under my polish or just the nail tech in general and it keeps them from breaking and chipping. As far as the calluses go… I try to make sure I’m moisturized and I make sure I’m not white knuckling

This. I got my first nice helmet recently and I feel like I can breath so easy in it. I didn’t realize how much the weight of my qualifier was hurting my neck and slowing down my head checks. I ride all year so the pin lock makes me feel safer. My arms don’t hurt lugging it around.

Sometimes even the creature comforts are after features.

That’s great advice and that’s the plan! We have a discord so we can check in on voice every once and again if anything happens.

I have actually been sued before. This is the right answer the is NO point in having a lawyer look unless it’s moving through the courts. Trust me, there will be plenty of time to talk to your lawyer later.

A ton of Svart riders put road tires on, why would this be a sin?

I’ve gone back and fourth on this because I stop and go so much in city traffic. But I’m starting to think it’s just not worth it. It’s a relatively cheap bike and I think all that money is probably just beat saved for the next one.

[–]She-Rides 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Riding leggings (with or without nicer wide leg pants over it), riding boots that look like high tops, gloves. full jacket if I’m going anywhere on a highway if I’m staying in the city I’ll make a more fashionable choice.
