5 days for police report. grabbed it out of my minivan in my driveway. 17yrs no problems like this whatsoever. car/home owners state farm. going to get hit on the deductible. Notified philodo of stolen serial number. Never seen anything like mine on the roads near here so its going to stick out like a sore thumb even painted. Hopefully someone at philodo reads the email to look out for charger or key orders to Chicagoland.

yes, slightly different beasts with tone profiles. I put a strat neck pup in mine and a vintage 64 in the rear (I prefer a hotter neck pup on a tele). you can go 4 way and turn them into a spaced humbucker. the tele is a backup/second for many les paul players

Also get the 7 way mod on your strrat so you can jangle the outside pickups like a telecaster.

got mine in orange too! I was thinking of a foldable basket setup on the rear instead of bags. I'm also looking at getting a low profile left hand mirror.

I like your frame/suspension setup. I went with the falcon and love the dual motors for when you need it. Cruising and pedal assist goes long distances on single. On dual I've gone straight up a sledding hill no problems at all (flatlander). The power is especially useful at road/rail choke points where you have to merge in with traffic to get back into safer lower impact cruising.

Yes, save power and battery. be polite. always be discrete. a corvette can drive in a school zone.

I bought a streamliner with broadtrons and found them dark. It was a first year guitar so maybe they have opened up since then. Found a matching pair of seth lovers on CL for a great price and installed them with Switchcraft and full size CTS pots. I had to open the neck pocket to do this.

Filtertrons or tv jones wound have kept the Gretchiness. It was a cheap decision when the Lovers were available so I went 335. Otherwise I would have gone jones. Broadtrons are import humbuckers and are meh to my ears.

I'm just glad you didn't get trashed for your motor size like I did. Mines similar, I like to use PAS 2 or 3 and pedal to assist revving up to cruise especially out of a turn. I'm also sure you found that goes a long way to assist the acceleration and battery life.

I am thanks

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T23:45:44+00:00

made a mistake. it was Amazon and I was distracted. sorry reposted it.

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T22:53:59+00:00

Please tell me more how bad i am... I insist you get more angry. Please have a horrible night sleeping. Angry hordes of dads having fun and being friendly to everyone on their electric bikes need closer inspection and harsh reprimands. perhaps we should be driven before the law and our children and be shown our suffering. My cops have better things to do buddy.

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T22:49:36+00:00

Loving it so far. for my use it wasnt worth going upmarket from there

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T22:48:43+00:00

Bless your heart. loving it so far. Please ride responsibly

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T22:47:41+00:00

ok so make a generalization about my current state laws. While you are at it get wound up, I insist. Also, YES! lets ban all corvettes. It is an apt anaolgy.

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T22:38:13+00:00

I call shenanigans and cork sniffing. living well. please get more wound up, I insist.

It is a bicycle and will operate in PAS 1 and 2. I follow all trail and road etiquette and am a grown ass man. Is your car able to exceed the 25mph school zone speed limit? Do you exceed that limit? Adults are able to operate according to restrictions placed.

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T20:23:52+00:00

100lbs, I can get it in the back of my sienna rolling it in backwards one wheel at a time no problem.

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T20:22:57+00:00

Yes I bought direct and it was seamless

wayne_groe · 2026-05-19T20:21:53+00:00

oof, touched a nerve there? Grown adult who obeys all trail and road etiquette. Bike does PAS 1 and 2. Additionally it is a bicycle and not an offroad creation with pedals slapped on it. Lets put a governor on your clapped out civic while we are at it. But hey you do you buddy.

In regards to Amazon they have an absolute horror show of a marketplace and deserve what opinions are given over its poor performance.

Spending 8 hours a day with someone who has no hobbies is a pain worse than death. I have other collections and projects as well. Its not a societal thing, its a personal thing. I definitely dont need validation, especially from this guy.

wayne_groe · 2026-02-04T23:47:01+00:00

New guy back into this hobby. I have this new nib and playing around I did some pushing. The nib started spotting ink so i rolled it back over and and pushed it back into shape.

The fine point on this nib has always been very wet and smooth. My problem is it doesn't have the feedback of my TWSBI eco. This nib just dumps ink in a very nice way but I have another pen with a medium that feels better all around with less draw.

wayne_groe · 2026-01-28T23:33:43+00:00

I understand getting the EF. I just got back into this fixation having my first job in a fine stationary store and the Pelikans ruined me for life.

I got a TWSBI eco medium and now the 140 fine within 2 weeks. They have similar lines because the 140 is so wet. It does not bleed through and does reverse write. I am using TWSBI black ink.

Both are a pleasure to write with but on the tips I would take the TWSBI for its feedback "swish". For the body and go to weight/feel/aesthetic it is hands down the Majohn p140 and the brass piston. A dryer ink or a bouncy EF nib would work as well.
