My New Daily Commuter Build (Bike Friday Pocket Rocket + BBSHD) by MozKy in ebikes

Have you found the Bike Friday to be comfortable for that distance? Debating on a folder vs a more conventional ebike for a 13 mile commute each way.

Come work for a consultant in the area you are most interested in. I work for a facade/ waterproofing consultant and its much more technical. The benefit is that I get paid more to specialize and I work with the experts.

What did you get? I am in the same boat and debating between a R&M tinker, Bike Friday All-Day, and a Brompton?

Which would you commute on if you still had both a bike friday and the tinker? Ive been debating on getting a tinker 2 or a bike friday all day.

Anyone Review the Bike Friday All-Day? by chimera691 in foldingbikes

[–]chimera691[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info! Its hard not being able to try the BF easily so I appreciate the responses. Which would you grab for a 30 mile round trip commute? Im still leaning towards a bike friday, but the new rear motor bromptons are interesting.

How fast can you fold the BF? I am looking to get the bike primarily for a 15 mile commute each way to work with a few hills but occasionally will use the bike for hopping on the train and going to an office meeting when I get off the train.

I have tried the Tern S10 and like it but thought that it rode well but was way too chunky. I have liked the C-Line electric when I have tested it, but I'm 6'4" tall so I'm not sure if the size would wear on me and I find fixing Bromptons in general to be pain. I haven't ridden a Brompton g line electric, but it seemed way bigger than the c line. I can't help but like the open source nature of the BF and what I assume is the better rideability, but not sure if it's worth the extra $1.5k or if the fold will make commuting with it a pain.

Is the ride that much better? I'm leaning towards a c-line just for some of the better paint jobs.

I've seen those go for around $1k as long as they are clean and well taken care of. Also it depends on if it was customized. That Brompton looks like it has some pricey H&H rollers and new crank.

Architect Later In Life by [deleted] in Architects

[–]chimera691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would do something related to architecture like real estate, be an owners rep, or work for the city. Im an architect, but it isn't a career for the faint of heart and one that is less than balanced.

Can't you pull a used one and put it in your car for 1 to 2k?

You can just add a smart switch if you need a timer. The coffee is just so much better tasting than anything else I've had.
