Hurmph. The shortcut to work would be a four mile straight shot down a 30MPH road. The class 3 is still $500 less than the class 1’s normal price.

If the class 3 is an option just go for it. Nobody is making you use it at 28mph all the time, and its not even easy to get going that fast anyway.

Allrighty, just ordered this guy in class 3. Bummer that they are out of snack bars and front racks until November. Figure I’ll do a stoker stem and random handelbar out of the horde, really want that porter rack though.

Kind of a branding fail on their part when you can’t tell what brand the bike is from their own pic.

It looks neat tho.

Yeah it’s less awkward with the rack. I’ma try and smang my Old Man Mountain rack on there, hopefully it won’t be too goofy over a 24" wheel?

I’d hold out till November for the Xtracycle rack (I am). It attached to headtube and therefore doesn’t turn with the bars.

They’re cool whatever they are.  
I had some rad cooks that I commuted on for a while until the nds arm snapped at the pedal threads and I had to hoof it the rest of the way to work.

I finally got around to ripping, cutting, chipping and tearing the remnants of the old feet off my kickstand. I installed these big rubber feet. They’re about 1/2” taller than the stock feet and the rubber compound is pretty soft. They’re made to use on walkers. We’ll see how long they last.

Walkers are used all day every day across all kinds of surfaces, I’d reckon they’d last a good while as stationary kickstand feets

TC I wish the stock rubber feet were a little grippier, they like to slide on the concrete in our garage.

Ok, I’ve used them a little bit now and they’re a huge upgrade.  
The slippy stock feet would slide annoyingly on pavement when I’d try to rock the bike off the kickstand and make a horrible noise. These are way grippier and don’t do that at all.  
The only downside is that they make it harder to muscle the parked bike around with the kickstand deployed because they’re taller and they don’t slide.  
These are what I ordered:

This is what I’ve been using but I don’t glue them on there. How does glue help? I guess I’m still rathering to replace a little more frequently then wrestle off glued on feet
