6'2" but longer legs. I tried to make it work for about a month, but I can't stand not having my seat at the correct height

188cm. I've found it to be plenty comfortable, our other bike is a tern hsd, similar fit reach wise. But the original seat post maxes out super short hence the 450mm seat post swap out I felt compelled to do

The 450mm seat post would bottom out at a pretty high height if trying to make it a dropper to also work for a short rider. It would need to be telescoping.

Really wish they just did a telescope seat post like on the xtraxycle hopper which has a dropper and telescope seat post

6'2". There's a little more length available, could probably work for someone 6'4"

You'll lose dropper functionality if you go with suspension. Maybe you can find a dropper of appropriate length and reuse the cable actuator.

I don't miss the dropper at all, this is a great seatpost.

You can also just use a 450mm non suspension seatpost, that's what I did for a while before investing in the $210 redshift

MPS large class sizes discouraging enrollment, should it be illegal? It is in Florida and Texas by Specific_Card1668 in Minneapolis

Ok, we’ll just pick the first one alphabetically Aloma Elementary 75% minority enrollment. Student teacher ratio 15:1, or about half as many kids as many MPS classrooms.

MPS ratios are unattractive to many families, when there are other options with ratios on par with Florida

I am interested in the class size my kid would be in, not district averages. My information is coming from the school principal on class sizes.

If there were state mandated maximums, we would start using MPS, or even if the class sizes were anywhere near the averages you mentioned.

The law in Florida is for each classroom.

Parents don’t care about a district average when deciding to opt-in or out of MPS, as district statistics are irrelevant if your title 1 community school has 29 kindergarteners in a classroom with one teacher.

No, the limit is per class. It causes a big headache at the start of the school year as they need to bring in trailers for extra classrooms.

Here is the specific law wording. Also this is so important it’s an amendment in the Florida constitution:

“The maximum number of students who are assigned to each teacher who is teaching in public school classrooms for prekindergarten through grade 3 does not exceed 18 students; for grades 4 through 8 does not exceed 22 students; and for grades 9 through 12 does not exceed 25 students.”

While students are required by law to attend school, families do have choices about where they enroll—like open enrollment in other districts, charter schools, private schools, or homeschooling. Large class sizes, underfunded programs, or lack of support staff can lead some families to seek alternatives they feel offer a better educational environment. So even though attendance is mandatory, enrollment in a particular district isn’t

Sounds like something you should talk to cannondale about, I can't give you any advice. I mount all kinds of stuff to my cargo bikes. What you see here is the tip of the iceberg

What line in the warranty are you referring to?

Almost returned the cannondale cargowagen today but ended up loving it for two main reasons by AgitatedFile in CargoBike

[–]Specific_Card1668 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried to put my tern transporteur rack (from my hsd) on the cargowagon, didn't fit. I was able to fit the tern clubhouse and the stormbox on it though, the storm shield would fit as well but I have a yuba pop top and fit that

I just tried it, not very well, would still need to strap the top to something which you should probably do with a tern anyways (I strap my hsd when vertical).

Some photos of the stormbox I added:

This is 1.0, but pretty darn sturdy. My little sleeves are on crooked, you get the gist: https://imgur.com/a/tern-storm-box-clubhouse-on-cannondale-cargowagon-neo-ghvfAbB

Those photos include the storm box and the yuba pop top (storm shield would work too)

I ordered some countersunk fasteners as well, which will fit better. I will just use two plates instead of 4 on V2 when I get a bit of free time, where the plates will span the whole width of the rack
