Looks good! What kind of range and speed do you get?

Anyone know if there is a way online to check individual stores in your area to see if they are in stock? I have been to several Walmart's so far and have found a few Schwinn Swindlers but none of these.

Thanks from me as well!

For it's worth, I took it to the Austin Bike Farm. They can hang it on the wall as art!

I have been recommending this site to friends like crazy lately and most of them have even less knowledge about bikes than I do. Hard to believe. I have been asked questions about some terms that are used and have been able to answer, but it made me wonder if there is a glossary of terms...

Doesn't hurt my feelings. I will always have cheap bikes. :)

Forgive me if this has been answered before. I searched the site and still have a couple of questions that perhaps someone can answer. First I noticed that Amazon offers Aosom 48V 1000W in front and rear wheel conversions. Is there any major drawback/advantage to a FWD setup? It looks like it...

That's kind of what I thought too. I have seen a few of them in downtown Austin without tags, but I figured the guys were just not bothering to tag them.

For what it's worth, the width at the narrowest part of the front fork is 3 inches. The rear is about 3 1/4.

No problem. I thought if they can stand up to the treatment these guys give out

Sorry, 27.5. Guess I was tired! Get it? Wocka wocka!

I live in Leander. I've been wondering this same thing lately. I have no fancy bikes just my Schwinns, so I am looking for more of a hang out kind of club.

I hope this okay to post a link. I was looking at the pedicabs that are all over downtown Austin and asked one of the guys where they get their parts. I would like an opinion if these are feasible for use on a board tracker style bike? http://shop.pedicab.com/26-triple-clamp-fork/ If not is...

Also, for better or worse they come with 25.5 inch tires.

That's the way I look at it. I don't ride as much as I used to and it was initially free so why not? It's the bike equivalent of the 15 year old beater Honda. Cheap and replaceable.
