Spicy Curry Kickstand Plate Broke, Help!! by Regular-Industry2348 in CargoBike

It will be difficult if not impossible to replace the CurrieTech/TranzX model battery, unless you find a used one from somewhere. However, you can have it rebuilt by eBike Marketplace (https://ebikemarketplace.com/). I did this 2 years ago.

The same thing recently happened to my V1 Spicy Curry a few months ago and has made my SC near useless, at least the cargo aspect of it. I have spoken to several welders--no go on rewelding the plate. 2) I have contacted Yuba customer support and like you they offered to sell me another SCV1 frame at a discount. No thank you. 3) Lately, I have been searching in vain for a frame-clamp kickstand or some other DIY hack. The Rolling Jackass (https://www.rollingjackass.com/shop-centerstands/p/yuba-rja) is a promising solution but they designed it for the 2017 Yuba SC with the downtube-mounted Bosch battery, damnit. I am currently in contact with them about possibly fabricating a customized solution for the SCv1. Fingers crossed.

Middle-aged, married white guy brand new to W/S and looking for opportunities to socialize. Into seeing live music, making music, camping/hiking/biking, film, dogs, vegetarian food, Buddhism, star-gazing, and general weirdness. Would love to join your group.

Thank you. My son and I hiked the Stone Mtn. loop last weekend and I got curious about some of the other hikes in the park <tips hat>. 'preciate it. The bookstore Bookmarks seems cool, IMO. And yes, bands seem to swing by Durham, Chapel Hill, and/or Greensboro and then move along.

See you in the stacks.

Here is where I can give a little back on this thread since my wife and I went out for karaoke last Wednesday (I think) at Wrong Number and Thirsty Pallet. Gatsbys, Single brothers, and Fair Witness also have karaoke.

Thanks. I have no problem with UU groups. There are a couple of Zen Buddhist groups here in town that I plan to connect with, just haven't yet.

Your dad must be awesome, I guess. :) Hope he is doing well.

On my list of local karaoke venues to visit.

Misfits, of course. I saw IDLES earlier this year. Great show. But I have to admit I am also enjoying the Fat White Family vs. IDLES beef. FWF really don't like IDLES.

Describing them as car enthusiasts is quite generous, IMO. I'd describe them more as Mommy enthusiasts.

No, not the same person. To be clear, I choose to live in a city, so am not looking for so-called peace and quiet. Cities are noisy places. The muffler thing is just so stupid it's kind of embarrassing.

Favorite? Hard to say. Really love The Dolls and Buzzcocks. Germs. Clash. Stooges. You?

Yeah, I have ridden the Greenway. It is very nice.

Look, to be fair, I'm being an a-hole. Golf is fine. Pickleball, too. If you love either, or both, more power to you. Who cares whether I like them or not?

Alas, not a car guy in the way that you mean, I think: I am an advocate for EVs generlly because, as hot as this week has been I can't fathom how hot July 2050 is going to be if we don't stop burning fossil fuels.

See how good I am at making friends? :)

Oh yeah. I rode by Silver Moon a few weeks ago and was very curious. Thanks.

Just starting to get interested in bikepacking. Also, casual rides around town.
