Is there any way I could carry 50lbs of a generic, crappy folder on my back? I've done an electric conversion on this cheap amazon BSO and my plan was to carry some straps to lug it on my back when I go inside somewhere, but I haven't found any way to do it yet. The folder itself is 28lbs, the motor 10 and the battery 10 (although I'm re positioning it to the front so ignore the bungee cords tying it to a back rack).
Do I give up and swap to a mountain bike? I was hoping to carry it on my back to avoid people tampering with it in my high bike theft town, especially with electronics on it, but I guess I could just make a mountain bike heavier to avoid theft.
