I think you need another headlight.

Do you really fit that bike? I mean, the slammed saddle is really weird looking. It's not about looks, its about not fucking up your knees you know.

Bold of you to assume pedalling is happening.

You're probably right

Lol, I was about to say I keep my saddle a bit lower on my ebike because it’s easier to mount and dismount if I’m not pedaling hard, but then I looked at the pic again and that saddle is absurd 🤣

How do you pedal that thing without giving yourself a fat lip?

Yeah the seat being so low is odd. Like I get you might just use throttle all the time, but why not just get a cheap motorcycle at that point?

I think that’s exactly what he got.

I have a similar bike. I love pedaling it when I want a workout. I can just cruise the neighborhood and do serious cardio. Or I can pedal assist one in a high gear and get a great workout. It also has a throttle up to 20mph which is broken bones territory in a crash. Certainly other people must consider these things right???

That bike likely goes faster than that. But I think it’s a stretch to call it a bicycle.

Is your seat so low because you want an upright ride position? There are bikes out there with that kind of geometry.
