Surely, if printing money (theoretically) causes inflation; and if collecting taxes reduces inflation, then the two are somewhat closely related.
If the amount of money that can be created by the government is somewhat limited, then surely tax money is another valid source for that money.
Yes, I’m amazed at what these tinywhoop-sized builds can survive, when there’s not much weight behind any impact.
Minor correction: you have the wrong community address under the third item in your “For right now” section. Should be [email protected] I think.
Wouldn’t that be 60 Hz without a rectifier, and 120 Hz with one? If the voltage crosses zero twice per cycle, but goes negative only once.
What sort of horsey reasons? Now I’m curious.
The range and charging leave a lot to be desired for many applications, but the bikes themselves seem to be quite nice.
My concern is that finding chargers will be even more difficult than it already is since I don’t think there is any DC charging support. So none of the side-of-the-highway EV charging stations will work, and you’ll specifically have to seek out a level 2 charger next to a coffee shop or something. Just makes any travel longer than the ~130 km range even more hopeless.
If I didn’t already commute everywhere locally by bike, I would definitely consider something like this though.

Do we get to make the argument that if they’re not worn on their backs, then they’re not backpacks? Chest-packs maybe?
Definitely agree on the recycling. Carbon fibre is a whole can of worms there.
In general, agree with your explanation here, but would disagree on the repairability point. Lots of carbon repair shops will repair carbon parts. Often just needs paint sanded off and additional carbon bonded on. Generally doesn’t bend and deform like metal parts, so the cracked bit can just be cut out and reinforced.
On the other hand the aluminum alloys a lot of car parts and bikes are being made of end up quite difficult to weld and re-heat-treat in practice, so no easier than carbon.

Trying to keep metal shavings and dust out of that spring opening will probably be an ongoing pain. But worth it for how good it looks that way I think.
