40+ lbs sucks but is doable on a clydesdale- i think my high score was 48 fizzy drinks, two bottles of wine, a big roast and a few other small grocery items, plus normal commuting crap like lock and tool kit etc. almost landed me in a ditch but i saved it
Whoops I forgot you were using a Clydesdale, for some reason I thought it was a cycletruck.
I can guarantee this was not fun to drive
Can of beer weighs 350g
So about 42 pounds just for the drinks?
That’s not bad for a front rack; the clydesdale must have a wonky geometry if that makes the ride squirrely.
it’s not bad. they don’t drink and I do so sometimes when we go out we’ll just take the omnium and I push them there and they push me back. it’s slow but doesn’t feel unstable or anything. gotta be a little aware on the starts and stops.
I picked a friend up from the transit center with her giant suitcase once and it was fine. it helps that your legs dangle over the side and get the center of gravity lower.
it gets pretty floppy. totally doable but i wouldn’t recommend it to those not initiated in carrying too much shit on a bike

Not that cool then lol
Oh, so it’s one of those high security locks.
does S know about this?
Dunno. Customer lost their keys so I made them a new one.
That seems like a feature (albeit very stupid). If the lock didn’t ratchet, someone would be mad they can’t jam the battery in when the key is in the locked position.
Wild that it took this long for the e-bike equivalent of the Bic pen trick.
