Nor for Israel, no.

I have a mirror on the left handlebar drop, and I have a cell-phone holder on the crossbar. I actually took it off right after this photo was snapped…I use it while cycling on the trainer in my garage but put it away when I’m out on the road.

Everything about this bike is so amazing! Is your headlight run off of a dynamo hub?!?

I’ve never heard of Spot bikes…are they still around? Was the bike originally a single speed or did you modify it?

Thank you for sharing!

I do actually have a rack, but I took it off this past weekend because I added a spray paint layer to it. Haven’t needed it yet this week, but I am going to get it put back on when I have time in the evening at some point soon

That would be pretty fantastic, wouldn’t it? I’m not sure what that would look like in practice, but I’m 100% with you. Reddit has been a pretty central part of my life for the past 15 years or so. It’s really sad to say goodbye - it feels like the family dog got bit by a zombie (or, more realistically, got rabies). You’ve gotta put it down because the version of it that you know and love is already dead.

Thank you! It’s my baby for sure…I’m considering swapping out the handlebars for something like the Velo Orange Crazy Bars or the Koga Denham bars. I want something that gives me more of a swooped handlebar for day-to-day riding, but also drop-style hand positions for longer rides. I think that’s going to be my next big project.

I wish Joe Biden understood the immense gravity of the situation. His administration has done some good work so far, but in regards to “ending the fossil fuel era”, I think his response would literally be

I mean, this totally fits the pattern of enshittification and the extraction of all actual value to maximize shareholder returns. Cut costs, make the product shitter, spend less money and claim losses to minimize taxes so that you can MAKE BANK BRO

Nice. Yes, biking in the winter is a much different experience! I live in Canada, but it doesn’t snow too much in the part where I live. Just rains a lot, which is kind of just whatever. A good rain jacket/pants/boots situation makes it not so much of a big deal

My daily commute is about 14km round trip. How about yourself? Do you have a daily commute?
