  3. Got a new bike! Now I can transport goods with my #cargobike people with my #rickshaw and I have an #ebike for trailers, like my #nomad camper.

  4. The journey to the Bristol Disaster Relief Trials starts with a ferry...

  5. There seems to be some more mini-cargobikes coming soon. The one from Velo Orange and Soma both look very interesting:
    bikepacking.com/bikes/bikes-an
    and
    bikepacking.com/bikes/bikes-an

    While I like Velo Orange's dropout design more, with the rack mount I'm a fan of the Soma version. (Looks really similar to existing models from Blacksnow, I guess they're manufacturing for Soma...)

  6. First ride after tube replacement went well. I checked all the tire pressures. I knew some would need it because I checked the good front tire yesterday and it was down. And then my mini-compressor needed charging again before I could get to the desired pressure. But the one installed yesterday and pumped by hand by the mech was a bit low as well, and the rear one needed more.

    Hard as rocks ride (I wish I could have afforded full suspension), but no flats!

  7. @JillsJoy Thanks. If you can see my reply to my toot, I made an update from Schwalbe, who made that very suggestion!

    So if I can source it where I am, I'll be getting that put in. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

  8. @ascentale From the answer, it sounded to me like speed/acceleration is a factor. That is, motorization makes it so the rim can go faster than the tube is going unless you create more friction that grabs the tube. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #Cycling #CargoBike #Recumbent

  9. OK, here's an update from Schwalbe US (where I had previously made a contact so I had an email).

    They offered to make good on it even though they are saying this is something common on many tubes with e-cycles.

  10. Got a question, but I suspect tonight's #BikeNite queue is full and I need an answer quicker than next week:

    If you ride your cycle ~ every other day, how often should you be checking your tire pressure?

  11. It's unique cargo bike week on Cycling Electric, so here's a deeper look at the incredible Tarran T1 Pro

    A few features:

    * Electronic landing gear with a parking lock that will activate the bike's security systems
    *NFC key unlock & phone unlock
    * active recording during unusual activity, just in case you need insurance footage
    * The sound system!

  12. If you're in #London on Sunday and want to try a #cargobike or ten then check out eventbrite.co.uk/e/cycling-ele who have 2for1 tickets

    Not associated in anyway, just think it's a neat idea

    Their blurb:
    Thinking about buying an e-bike? This is the easiest way to try lots of them in one place before you decide.

    Test and compare over 150 e-bikes from 17 top brands on a completely traffic-free circuit. Ride as many bikes as you like, meet the brands, and find the one that’s right for you.

    This is a one-day-only event on Sunday 5th July and tickets are limited.

  14. The artistic participative Shelter Construction Site of the "Gestaltung" masters project "Common Shelter" started successfully!
    -> Next building days are the 16th and 17th may 2026!

    You may join us on a bike, too: "From the art hall to the art construction site" -> Meeting point is friday 15th may 2026 16:00 at the "Thinker" in front of the "Kunsthalle Bielefeld". One way is about 25 km. If you like to build with us, please send a mail to shelter[@]apgw.de or say hello here in the fediverse for details.

    If you just like to ride the bike with us, then no announcement neccessary. If you ride with us AND have cargobike or big biketrailer capacity (aleXargo etc), please contact us: A bike company from Bielefeld told me today that we can re-use good, long wooden trash-planks from them!

    Look back:
    From 2nd to 4th of may 2026 we made a good start, thanks to the well trained and powerfull co-artists. More in the construction diary on the website: shelter.apgw.de/#2026_05_02

  15. Inspirierend wie man damals in den 50ern einen Kinderwagen zum Beiwagen eines Fahrrades machen konnte . Schön das man das Kind im Seiten-Blick hatte.Heute wird man wohl noch einen Kindergurt zusätzlich einbauen, oder?

  16. PS: In case I need this information again some time (and find it here): It (Bike Friday Haul a Day with XT 1x11) needs a chain with 158 elements.

  17. Today I spotted what appears to be an electric cargo bike with a petrol generator mounted on the rear rack, humming along quietly!

    I wonder if the regulators have thought of that!

    Obviously the optimal solution would be installing electric chargers on the street for bike couriers and the wider public, but if the bike is street legal (25kph max motor assist/pedal assist/<250watts) and only charges the battery when parked, is it any worse than the dozens of cars usually sitting in traffic on the street? Not sure what to make of it.
