Trying out this whole thing…
Great tips, thank you! I’ve got a U-lock/D-lock and a freaking heavy chain (Kryptonite New York Noose), so I really should probably stop stressing!
I am registered with the police and Project529, but you’re right that those are worth mentioning!
I’ve definitely considered taking the battery and/or seat with me, but carrying around the wheel is one I hadn’t considered!
Yeah, I’ve got a mid-range Abus U/D lock, and a Kryptonite New York Noose chain. Probably should stop worrying so much about it, but it’s hard to accept maybe losing that much money!
It’s mainly errands that I’m concerned about — same as you, I’ve got secure indoor storage at home and work. But I find myself reluctant to take it on errands versus Uber or transit, because of that risk of losing it.
Clearly I need to get over it! Haha.
Yeah, now that the bike isn’t brand new anymore, I do feel a bit that maybe I’m being overprotective, to my own detriment.
Thanks for your transparency and hard work! Loving the site and looking forward to it getting even better!
Wild! Wonder how that thing handles compared to a more common bakfiet-style.
Love rats! But after being gutted losing two mischiefs, my heart just can’t take owning them anymore (or maybe they owned me??). Love to see them on my… dash? Are calling it a dash?
I have zero need for a cargo bike, but I can never quite seem to stop dreaming of them…
I’ve given it a try for a solo instance, spinning it up on a Digital Ocean droplet – but I think I messed up the configuration. So I figured I’d wait until there’s better documentation, as more people (who are way better at this stuff than me!) figure it out.
That said, I’m happy to help contribute to the documentation once I understand it myself, but I’m really just a tech dilettante.
Good idea! Will this work only with kbin.social, or will we be able to use it with other instances, in future?

Thank you!
It’s heartening to see some improvements that aren’t just ‘ban all eBikes!’
