Most e-bikes on the market today are built with unique and proprietary parts. They are drifting farther towards unrepairable future waste. There needs to be affordable easy conversion options, there is no shortage of suitable bikes laying around. Bikes with near infinite parts operability. Bikes are the mechanical #fediverse

Cory @pluralistic Doctorow gives us #cargobike #ebike folks a nice rundown on all the fun bosch has in store for us.

worth keeping in mind as all these 'official' e-assist systems also neatly pair with your phone, all sorts of hilarity & hijinks may ensue!

& fwiw, bosch ain't the only outfit going long on enshittification.

it's never if, merely when.

Funderat på lastcykel?
9 personer som aldrig provat testar två olika typer – med lasten fram eller lasten bak. Fint att se totala nybörjare vingla fram och ge ärliga åsikter.

Just come across the phrase " #Bicycles offer you the freedom that car ads promise". coined by Tom Flood https://www.linkedin.com/posts/tom-flood-7a91b411_bicycles-deliver-the-freedom-that-auto-ads-activity-7115679791810314241-iGGB?trk=public_profile_like_view

Appears to be a two year old phrase but I think if for #2026 you're wanting to use the car less, it's a good mantra memorize. I've had a puncture on the main #cargobike for over a week now I've been lazy about fixing so the car has been used more. I need to remember the freedom the bike gives a #smallbusiness like us.

Video bike tax: Video is from a couple of years ago on one of our cargobike, sadly now gone due to a recall

I actually only needed some small light in order to be able to identify things in the dark box in low light conditions.

Somehow, that escalated quickly and turned into some #Christmas thing. 😎

Just two 7€ xmas LED sets with a 3xAA battery pack each.

Sadly the most pretty cargobike is missing, perhaps I have the chance and time to add it soon.

How do you carry a broken bakfiets to a workshop to get it fixed? On another bakfiets, of course!

#TIL If you update the firmware of your ebike's #Rohloff E-14 electronic shifter, make sure to also update the #Bosch software on your bike. Otherwise, you might end up with a non-responsive shifter stuck in first gear and a grey “--” symbol instead of the selected gear on your Bosch display. 😬

(Luckily, updating the Bosch software after the Rohloff firmware turned everything back to normal.)
