I'm looking for a throttle/class 3/fat tire ebike that can seat two in a pinch. gf and i are moving to SF in august and she cannot drive, but is looking at a ~15 minute commute mostly through Golden Gate Park to get to school. she has a friend who loves her Super 73, so I was looking at a Super 73-S Adventure Series. however, I was wondering if yall had any recommendations for a bike/technically just an electric moped like this! looking to seat two occasionally and take a rear cargo basket. preferably hardtail. thanks!

does anyone have any recommendations for a ladies’ full-face DOT helmet that are more cutsie and less Crotch Rocket Cool Kid? i saw a couple vespa brand DOT moped helmets, but they didn’t have any chin/mouth protection. the super73 is sick, but it has too much sauce for just a bike helmet and gf has got a lot of smarts rattling around up there.

evil_bunnY posted:i'd get something like an arai rapide neo in number blue. it's got cool paint. e: goddamn that number blue livery owns e2: the shoei glamster also looks to fit the bill, and is significantly lighter to boot. but are either of these helmets available in the US, or will i have to do some grey market import poo poo? all the reviews are in "british" TenementFunster fucked around with this message at 10:48 on Jul 12, 2023 |

everyone just needs to buy more money so they can get a super73. gf loves her plausibly-deniable moped!

krypto chain + NYC lock is peak. my gf has one for parking at home and another for school, which is in an access-controlled bike locker. a bit overkill but you don’t have to outrun the bear in that situation

Safety Dance posted:I had one of those kryptonite ny fahgettaboudit chains when I lived in Manhattan and I think I used it twice. It was unusably bulky and heavy and loud, just a real pain in the rear end to carry around. I used the kryptonite ny fahgettaboudit U lock every day.

it’s a lot easier to hang a beefy ulock on the bike that drag a chain around. u locks are for errands, big rear end chains are for commuting

the most correct response to this issue is to confront some of the worst paid and most precarious workers in the country as they attempt to make their very dangerous jobs slightly less perilous

Jonny 290 posted:What do people like for locks? Denver's kind of stealey. don't park it outside overnight. don't park it in a shared garage unless it's access controlled. don't park in your own garage unless you put in a ground anchor. i sunk two of these into the floor of the garage in our new place Safety Dance posted:I always say a good insurance policy beats a good lock any day, but Kryptonite makes a beefy U lock that would be hard to get through without a battery powered grinder.
