Bike noob here

You'll likely get more and better responses to bicycle specific, non /out/ related questions on /n/. My only suggestion would be to at least look into two wheeled bikes with front and rear racks. I have a loaded touring bike that I've used to haul logs on, even. I'm tempted to say trikes are for faggots, but I recognize that they have their own zen and contextual place. They will be pretty wide, and in many places the law is for bicycles to use the roads rather than sidewalks. Anyway, head to /n/ with this one for better results.

Hey OP. I have owned many different kinds of bikes in all sorts of weights and configurations and tire sizes. I use my bike to commute, to shop, to exercise, to make my way into the outdoors loaded down with camping gear. I haven't owned a tricycle myself, but having ridden a buddy's over the course of a week, I gotta recommend strongly against a fuckin trike. Less maneuverable, heavier, harder to store, less aftermarket options for gearing and wheels and such.

>>1465783 Please tell us that inside the drum is another, smaller folding bike. And a retard helmet. With attached electrical retard.

>>1465690 how much was it?
where can I get one?
Madsen Maskingevær !!o9Rj2xAYif5
>>1465784 sadly no, just some nettle cord and a wet wipe if i remember right
>>1466171 not cheap, but i did the dumb thing of buying the bike first and then having it upgraded to electric. somewhere in the ballpark of 15.000+ DKK definitely, i run a LifeLine 1500 lumen front light on my handle bars too, and a GPS mount for use with my phone, been thinking of getting some battery christmas lights to wrap around the barrel for kicks.
still cheaper then public transport. and a whole fuck of a lot faster

>>1466291 Step aside Dane,
No need for helmets in the Netherlands. If they were to regulate that bullshit it would be the ultmate sign of the sissy-fying of society.

>>1465690 >100% real OK then, here's the deal. Originally I intended to add that to the list of tripfag/uses trekking poles and such with "checks out", but this bicycle business completes the whole picture in a beautiful new light for me. I now formally apologize for giving you shit, because after imagining you actually riding that thing around, composited with everything else I know of you, I see that you are a legit full blown autist retard, for which I have nothing but deep, sincere respect. I think you should start doing YouTube videos. You've also been an admirable sport of it all, bless you.
