Elli (she/her) @elisaelli.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Positive: 12 miles of car replaced with bike! Negative: Can't put on any of the attachments. 5/8 bolts needed taken off were stripped on delivery (you can see the scalloped markings where they torqued too hard into crappy bolts). We'll see if their (lectric) customer service is worth anything. 100
Elli (she/her) @elisaelli.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Yesterday, put together our new e-bike and was pretty discouraged (one of the bolts was stripped and couldn't install the cargo/cage on the back). We could put the pads in without though, and today, replaced 7 miles of car errands with biking! And kiddo loves it, and was showing it off to friends. 231
