I have my end mirror under the handlebars, not above. My visibility is a lot better, rather than looking at my own elbow, and with it under the bar, it gets bumped a lot less.

I’m in a very car-centric city (Phoenix, AZ) but I use a cargo bike all the time, probably 90% of my local trips. I can’t count how many times someone in a car has done something to make my life a little easier, giving me a bit more space for example or waving me through so I don’t have to stop. There’s lots of bike hater stories out there, but it’s almost never been like that for me.

And on the other side, I let people know they have a tail/brake light out, all the time. Once you start noticing it, there’s a LOT of them.

We need wireless rim brakes.

I want to repost this but make the title

Paths of 800 unsuspecting bicyclists being pushed until they fall over

I love that these are priced to get people into this hobby. I’ve seen a couple guys out on the Aventon version (ramblas?) where I regularly ride.

Also, surprising everyone, water is wet AND bears shit in the woods!

YYYYMMDD is the only correct answer.

Would a couple desiccant packs in the enclosure work as well?

If I can’t find something that’ll work I’ll do that for sure.

Yeah I was looking for a camera specific case, but I probably need to expand my search a bit. Maybe a more generic box of some sort.

Edit to add - This looks ideal, I just needed to think outside the box a bit more :)

Probably be on sale during amazons upcoming thing. I prefer the freerider pro over the base version, it’s lighter and stiffer.

Two main reasons for bike shoes - better grip, and a hard toebox. If you mountain bike, very very worth it.

A+ for setting, but set needs some work

Yeah, this is backwards. Heat tolerant, take ongoing damage to cold.

All new cars have the same problems. Mediocre interiors for the price, spyware, and rent seeking behavior for stuff like automated highway driving.

100%. It sucks, the prices are insane. Ours was insane. And those issues apply to all new cars, regardless of fuel.

We have a Hyundai Ioniq 6, about 18 months now. It has a touchscreen like all EVs (I know, there’s a truck) but it still has a lot of physical buttons, unlike a Tesla which has gone way too far with the screen. We tried the Mustang and liked it, but liked this better, plus my wife wanted a sedan.

Biggest pro is it’s not a Tesla. Also, I get home, plug it in, and go inside. Takes five seconds, and five more to unplug it. Plus, it’s not a Tesla. Way less time than it takes at the gas station to fill my truck. It’s also fast, a lot of fun to drive, and finally, it’s not a Tesla.

Con would be road-tripping. If I was doing a ton of that, I’d be perhaps looking for an EREV of some sort, although 20-80% in 20 min isn’t exactly horrible. Charger is CCS, but sometime this month Hyundai is sending me an NACS adapter, so no more issues there - we did have one time where we had to wait for CCS when a NACS was open, but not exactly a massive issue. The new models are NACS.

Forgot to mention, in US, range about 300 miles or so, and there was a sensor issue that ended up with a harness replacement that didn’t cost me anything under warranty, but had an estimate of $8500.

Perfect. Ordered my parts, odds are I’m going to end up building a dozen of these. Thanks!

Cheaper is good. No issues with it being wireless? Or do you add a wired Ethernet adapter for this use case?

I wear a helmet. Either I’m mountain biking, or I’m in a bike lane along cars, where I’m riding in the 22-25mph range and the cars are in the 45-50mph range. If I get directly run into, it probably won’t make a lot of difference, but if I get clipped/knocked down, way more likely, it quite likely will.

I don’t think they should be mandatory, but it does bring up the same arguments that get made about motorcycles - if you don’t wear one and you crash, will the (horrible, shitty, awful, stupid, American) insurance industry try to reduce their liability? Rhetorical question, of course they will.

I generally take one around 5-6 in the evening precisely because of that, if I wait until 8-9 I tend to be drowsy as well in the morning. A lot less though, usually no more than 10mg.

I tried one of these once, it was ok but seems really expensive. It was I think $4 for a can, 10mg. Serious question - why is this better than a 10mg edible (the ones I like and get regularly are 100mg for about $15-18) and a mocktail or soda or whatever? Not a sarcastic question, I’m really wondering what I’m missing? In all fairness I’ve only tried one.
