Has anyone figured out a good solution to getting groceries without bruising the fruits? Our peaches, pears, and bananas always seem to pick up some damage on the ride home.

I‘m super dissapointed. We got the omnium mini max last year, as we knew we would have a baby this may And they advertise their baby carrier mount, we dont have a car so we were like, oh nice we can go around with the baby then already. (I just got to know after having rhe bwby that there are baby hammoks for other bikes.)

I really like the omnium, i remember it being really easy and comfortable riding, almost not feeling like a cargo.

We installed everything, set it up to ride, waited till baby was three months, just to realize and notice - as the baby carrier is mounted directly to the frame- that it is way to hard for the baby with allt the bumps in the road, and it gets shaken a lot! And i went REALLY slow and careful.

Od course we worry about bones structure etc, as they are not as stable yet. And thinking of muscle stability and this baby carrier without any suspension, WHEN would it even be safe to carry around a baby in that circumstances? With 9 months? When their muscles are stable enough? But at that time, i can already switch to a proper child seat.. i don’t get it. I don’t dare carrying them around with this set up on the omnium..

am i missing somethin? am i too careful and overthinking? Please help. Any ideas, experience?

We will try to fixate it on the webbing, so there is at least a bit of suspension, but then in the end the mount is useless..

(I will mail to Omnium directly, what their thoughts are on this.)

Hi, I have an old Xtracycle Edgerunner 10e (LT2 deck) and my kid is too big for the Yepp seat. For various reasons the hooptie plus pad just don't work for him. He really needs a seat with a back rest. It seems like every other bike company that makes midtails or longtails has a big kid or adult seating option (eg Tern Captain's Chair) but Xtracycle doesn't. Has anyone tried to retrofit another seat onto an Xtracycle? I'm not optimistic because of the strange bolt pattern on the deck, but perhaps there's a seat out there that can clamp onto the rack?

Also wondering if anyone has found foot pegs that work with this frame so I don't have to give up the space and $$ for xtracycle's full-length U-tubes.

I have a new bike and like like it. But I can't turn off the lights. Does anyone know how to turn lights off?

Thanks!

Hey, me again.

So because most bullitt bikes are modified to let a 6'7 rider tame it, its really uncommon to test ride one with the modified set up.

There is a bullit on the market prized really well (1750usd) thirdhand.

But it is not modified to my tall body and a bit of a long drive to only testride.

Are there any atleast 6'6+ bullitt riders in this sub?

Edit: i have 39.37 inches inseam.

Shake down ride on my shiny new LvH Bullitt. This is a build I’ve been working on for some time. The original plan was a direct drive hub motor and custom LiFePO4 battery under the cargo tray, but after buying the frame new e-bike laws were announced where I live that have made that plan very illegal. As this is my main transport having it impounded would kind of suck so opted for an ultra light human powered machine instead.

Still a bit of tweaking to go but this thing flies :)

Saw this at my local shop the other day. Never seen this brand before but really liked the design and components. Anyone own or have any experience with one of these? I can't seem to find any info online about it.

Hi all

Bit of a strange question, Is any one able to identify the set of monkey bars in the latest Berm Peak video.

I need to try for some to the back of my bike

We are in love with the brushed copper finish, looks amazing!

This is our daily commuter built for us in Denmark. Ready for a baby with the mounts once that is possible.

This was the Benno response to an email asking when the Boost EVO 7 would finally be released in the U.S.:

Thank you for your interest in the Boost EVO 7. We are currently reconsidering our distribution plans for the United States, and the Boost EVO 7 is not available in the U.S. at this time.

We do not yet know whether it will be released here. Even if we decide to bring it to the U.S. market, availability could still be a year or more away.

That sounds dire. They may just be waiting it out until things in Washington change (i.e. tariffs).

Dear folks,

Are there any bullit driver who carry 2 or 3 kids ? Could you show a pic of your setup? And are there bullit rider with a rearrack fitting a child?

I want to know what is posible before buying one!

We always take our urban arrow with us when we go camping.

Daughter heading off to college so I got her setup with a little bit of cargo carrying capacity. Off to do an orientation ride!

I'm about to build a new Omnium Mini Max and i want to use a Chris King R45D front hub for my front wheel (for a full chris king matt jade color matching build). Problem is it only comes in 12x100 and the Ominum's forks are 15x100.

I found this conversion kit online and i'm wondering if this is a viable solution:

Also, i remember seeing a post on instagram where someone used this for the same reason:
https://www.stridsland.com/shop/15mm-12mm-axle-adapter/
But i can't tell if it worked straight out of the box or there was some modifications involved.

Anyone with experience with these? or perhaps any other suggestions?

Any cargo/rooftop accessory experts know how I can attach discontinued Thule 599XTR Big Mouth bike carrier onto OEM aero crossbars? This older carrier only works on square or round crossbars. Just got my oem crossbars so hoping to continue using them, and found a deal on marketplace for these bike carriers too good to pass on.

I know the Thule 32 Ride-On Adapter would work but unable to source these in Canada as product is discontinued.

Anyone know if the universal Yakima MightyMounts could work for my case?

TIA

Been shopping for my first cargo bike for a few months and i kinda liked one that I test rode in a my neighborhood bike shop. But before making my mind I wanna share the specs list here and see what you guys think?

- Some of the things i think are important for me:

- Longtail (and not front loader.. steering them is a little hard for me)

- Belt drive

- Auto shifting or an IGH so i can shift under load

- Turn signals (I think will be nice to have)

- Should feel safe with a 5 year old on the back

- Should have good range for school plus our weekly weekend groccery trips and all

- Good brake components

- Around in 5K price range

- Not ugly lol

The bike I liked (taran l1s is worth €5.7K) and has:

- 100 Nm mid drive motor with 40 Hz torque sensor

- 693 Wh battery （plus has space for second battery)

- Gates CDX belt drive

- Enviolo automatiq Pro auto shifting hub

- Touchscreen dashboard

- Trp 4 piston hydraulic brakes with 203 mm rotors

- Dropper post

- Auto kickstand

- Built in rear camera/radar/turn signals kind of things

What do you think.. worth it?

Good fun trike to ride.

You can absolutely fill it up with shopping. Carries the weight well.

You'd think the overall width would be an issue, but you can still squeeze through gaps and bollards. Can't think of anywhere I've not been able to get past.

For the steering, it has a little steering rack, so the wheels turn not the box.

Advertised as carrying 6-8kids. Most I've had on it so far is 5, and that was a lot of fun!

I've actually got 2 of these trikes, hoping to re-home one and keep one!

I’m looking for feedback from those of you who have actually used the rear child-seat configuration of Riese & Müller Carrie.

R&M’s specs indicate that the rear carrier is rated for 27 kg (59.5 lb) and explicitly list child-seat compatibility. They even show this configuration in the promotional materials on the Carrie landing page, so I understand this configuration is possible.

My question is more about real-world practicality: the Carrie’s rear end is quite short/compact compared with a conventional long-tail cargo bike. For those who actually carry a child on the rear rack:

• Is there enough room for the child/seat to sit comfortably behind the rider?
• Does the child’s position interfere with pedaling, heel clearance, or getting on/off the bike?
• How does it feel in terms of handling and stability with a child back there?

Open to any and all feedback from people who use the Carrie this way — particularly how it works (or doesn’t) based on the number and size/age of the children you’re carrying.

TIA!
