I have to agree! the bikes a right POS!

Maybe he's reimagining the marketing angle.

For a moment I scrolled and was thinking it was a scale pic of the ridgeback lol

It's $500 CAD, I don't think it's too fair to do a direct comparison with the surly tbh.

Amazing!

Anybody have recommendations for a 20" disc front wheel? - bonus points if it's also a dynamo hub

Omnium's got you covered..

Only 451 ETRTO though...

True.. Isn't 451 reffered to as 20" as well though?

It is, but it's quite an obscure size and there is not a lot of tyre choice. There is 406 option listed, interestingly, although no stock available. IIRC Jumbo asked Schwalbe to see if they would make one (Marathon?) for Omnium but their minimum order was too large.
Like many I run a 406 on my Mini Max, with a BMX rim and fatter tyre the overall diameter is the same so the handling is not affected.

so 406 = bmx size?

@BrickMan is my hero. I thought I was doing well with about 50kg of logs on the bike. I need a trailer like that for serious timber loads

yep

All right.. I didn't know which of the sizes was more common - but as far as I'm aware Omnium is the only place that carries dynamo wheels in that size.

@dt might be worth it to shoot them an email to ask when they're going to be in stock.

E-cargo bikes is a growing last mile delivery company.
They are looking for new riders offering them proper contracts in contrast to the other players out there

Do they operate in Mile End?

They're based near Ladbrook Grove and are planning to expand.
I'm not sure where they currently operate. I'll check with a friend who works for them

Also have a base in Streatham delivering for sainsburys.

Any idea what the hourly is?

Less weight and half the number of wheels on it this week.
Is a bike trailer XL and is the Xxl size. They shut the UK website but still deliver to UK, its fiektsterXL is there real name.
For its size and capacity its very light, even lighter if you don't use the resin board top deck and just mount things to the frame. Only weak point is the connection, but anything under 150kg is manageable, just wanted to fully test it out!

Quite a picture

I will find out next week...

Not the best pics but another DIY Full Suspension Bullitt. Interesting to see how they retrofitted the rear triangle on there.
