Whatever, I'll just go to Walmart and buy a 50 pack.

What've you got against beans anyways? This is the Fediverse, we love beans here!

I've seen chocolate chip "pizza" before but it's just chocolate chip cookie baked in a circular pan and cut up like pizza.

American here: I'll take that chicken, you can have the "pizza"

Also, beans on toast is fine.

Commuters I figure, This would fit on some handlebars with room to spare, but I'm thinking like Surky Moloko bars or something. If this thing takes off, maybe they'll make accessories for it: I bet you could fit a cup holder and pouch behind the curves.

Cyclists can be hard for motorists to see, particularly motorists in larger vehicles. British trucker Jay Singh observed this firsthand, having spent decades driving a hauling truck around the UK. Singh himself eventually took up cycling, and "after one too many close shaves while cycling in London [decided] to invent

I've dated over and under 30 and IMO, after 30 dating gets better. Don't lose hope!

SAFETY WARNING: Engwe EP-2 Pro (and similar) faulty fender design (fedia.io)
 

To anyone else out there with an Engwe ebike or any bike with a cheap fender: If your fender is not designed with breakaways on the mounts, you should either remove it entirely or replace the bolts with 5-10 lb zip ties to create your own breakaways and prevent a serious crash.

https://engwe-bikes.com/cdn/shop/products/Ep-2pro_5c418549-daf2-4cda-8994-6e4ac361cb9b.jpg

What happens is, if the fork mount fails and the front fender does not have breakaways, it wraps around the front wheel and sends you over the handlebars (quite possibly at great speed).

Engwe 100% does not care, did not cover my medical bills, replace my $300 helmet, warn their other customers, issue a recall, or even bother to fix the underlying issue.

To be clear, this fix literally costs a couple of zip ties. That is how little they care about their customers.

If I had not been wearing a quality helmet, my Engwe likely would have killed me or left me with life altering injuries.

If you're looking for an inexpensive ebike, don't buy Engwe. Get an REI Co-op, Ride1up, or Lectric. Any semi-reputable brand is a safer choice.

Also, as always: Wear your helmets every time! Be safe out there everyone.
