If a country song is not directly about trucks/pickups, it often still manages to mention them anyway. Big cars are a staple of this musical genre.

I think we need a new musical genre where songs mentions bicycles and public transportation so often that every parody of it will always mention it.

I propose to call the genre "city".

So the questions now (aside from the "how do I keep the battery from catching fire" 🤪 )

1. How to convert this to a Class I e-bike
2. What battery technology to switch it to, and what is the hub capable of (with focus on SAFE battery tech -- I assume LiFePO4 is the right choice here now)
3. What e-bike controller would work best (vs. whatever is hacked into here now, which is "turns on when pedaled")

(The purpose of this foolish exercise, for me, is simply to learn about the technology... I am quite happy pedaling uphill with my normal bikes right now!)

Hello fellow cyclists, I'm looking for a blog post or a web page where the author listed some "extreme" bicycle repair methods. You know, like stuffing grass in the tire or patching a hole with a money bill. There were many other issues with DIY fixes in the wild.

I thought I had bookmarked that somewhere but I can't find it again.

Does it ring a bell anyone?
