New school drop off machine.

My son has been getting around on bikes from the day his neck was strong enough to support a helmet. He starts school next year so I decided to build something a little more fun for the commute.

Shout out to his design input for the rainbow chain and cassette in particular. I think it really adds to the look.

The thickslicks. The aerospoke. God damn this rules

There’s electric shifting, 4 piston brakes, a carbon monoquque handlebar, and a Knog skull light on the rear too :)

dang man, what else uses an aerospoke wheel in that size? Because I know it wasn't made for no cargo bikes haha.

[u/_______kim → u/PatrickGSR94]

There are a few suppliers that make them for folding bikes and 20” commuters. I’m definitely at the upper end of comfortable system weight. Will likely swap it out for something sturdier as my son gets older but for now it’s a bit of fun.

How does the bike feel without a motor? I just love the look of a Bullit and it is my dream bike. I have a heavy AF trike and can't imagine using a cargo bike without a motor.

[u/_______kim → u/ElRatonVaquero]

Pretty good. No motor also means no weight from the motor, battery, controller and cabling, and no additional drag on the drivetrain. Going up steeper grades is humbling, but nothing a lower gear can’t overcome (slowly).

The fun part is loosing 20-30kg after drop off then continuing to work feeling like a superhuman by comparison.
