Stream from @notjustbikes at the Fully Charged Show with some commentary about some of the risks of commerical electric cargo bikes on bicycle infrastructure.
Removing speed limiters, maxing out dimensions, and electric motorbikes pretending to be bicycles.
I’m looking into electric bikes and would love some recommendations, specifically bikes that can handle the SF hills without too much trouble, but can carry a shopping bag too.
Ideally, not too much maintenance.
And maybe friendly, helpful people, possibly local? Though that might be too much to ask.
@Ingurido Start with your local bike shop. sometimes they have staff you can't stand, but most have good enough prices on quality bikes and stand behind what they sell. Support them first if possible.
Biked a total of 7.5. miles this morning. Biked 4 miles to my uncles (I did get lost so it took longer than it should have), biked 1.5 miles to get food and then another 1.5 to get home. Overall, it was really fun.
