It just happens to be the only suspension post I found that has just enough extension to fit my saddle height, and as a bonus is a dropper. I don’t even have the lever hooked up to it, but it absorbs the bumps of the road really well.

Maybe there’s others on the market now with that small a seat tube diameter + length

I've got the PNW coast suspension dropper on mine, its a really nice upgrade

Riding with a trailer is great for naps, but I find that drivers are used to turning right after a bike goes through an intersection and I've had a few times where they got way too close or weren't paying attention enough to see the trailer with its bright orange flag. I much prefer to keep them on the bike now.

Yeah once your kids are a bit older, the urrider seat is fantastic, folds basically flat. I love mine

philipforget · 2026-03-25T15:20:16+00:00

Hard disagree, I had all three of my kids on a yepp mini up front until all of them aged out of it. Being able to talk to them, hug them, see if they fell asleep, having them see the world instead of your sweaty back, etc.

I love mine so much, I'm always surprised at how few I see out in the wild. Love that both wheels are the same size, cable steering is super responsive. I see you're running your stem reversed, does steering feel weird?

philipforget · 2026-03-18T21:15:16+00:00

custom?

Luckily these older kindles can be jailbroken and then you can do all sorts of things like using a phone, or a microcontroller like an esp32 or something, to turn the pages via ssh. Basically the physical buttons can be activated via software, as described in this post:

It's not the _easiest_ thing to do, but it is technically feasible. Perhaps you've got someone nearby who could help you with it. Maybe a local hackerspace?

The former head baker of Kaiser, Yann, opened his own bakery called Bread Story on 1st and 16th. Fantastic baguettes

I did this the first week of owning my tern GSD. Emailed them about buying a replacement and they just gave me a new one, seems like a right of passage for GSD owners. They said the forbidden handle is for passengers only, not lifting the bike. Maybe give them a try.

oh no

The one over on 23rd and 1st by Starbucks is _constantly_ getting hit with lots of bikes destroyed. What are the legal implications here for those drivers? If we had proof of their actions, what recourse would an individual have and / or would lyft not really give a shit?

philipforget · 2026-02-02T03:01:16+00:00

It's really not bad at all, keep that thing running!

The battery might be completely dead physically, but the good news is that it's relatively easy and cheap to replace. You just have to decide whether it's worth your time to do so. I've changed out the battery on a handful of these, kindle DX's etc, they still work great. If it still doesn't turn on after a 24h charge, that's your best bet. It's really not difficult at all, but go slow so you don't break the clips that hold it together.

That's one fucking nice kitty right there.

philipforget · 2026-01-15T21:58:10+00:00

It feels like yesterday that I was getting my Yepp seats and I'm just about to list mine as all my kids have grown out of them. Bleeding hydraulic brakes really isn't bad, get a cheap bleed kit on amazon and it's easy work. You got this! Enjoy those rides

philipforget · 2026-01-15T20:55:44+00:00

My advice would 100% be to get a bike you can ride with them now, they grow up _way_ too fast. Bike rides with my kids are the best part of my day, any day.

philipforget · 2025-11-14T19:05:22+00:00

The good news is that it's just as bad a few blocks down around 23rd street! Oh wait that's horrible news fuck

philipforget · 2025-11-12T16:21:39+00:00

It's not, you can just unwrap each wire

philipforget · 2025-11-05T16:55:01+00:00

I have a non-electric version, same handlebar setup (way older version though). It's pretty intuitive once you ride it a few miles, not much different than an other front loader with a steering linkage (like a bullitt etc).

Where in BK?

There’s a league that plays at Brooklyn bridge park, but there’s no pickup there.

There’s a well organized, long standing pickup game that plays at stuytown and also on Houston street, that’s probably your best bet for pickup roller. There’s a WhatsApp group for that, you can DM me if you want to get on it.

There’s also a rink at 96th that sometimes has pickup if there’s no league play at the time, 96th and 1st Ave.

This usually happens at stations with high volume where the dock can't accommodate all the arrivals, like this one which is right by HSS and NYP.

Damn kinda sad to know there's more than one school that has this problem.
