We have that in Germany, 25 for regular e-bikes. Anything above requires you to register and insure your bike, you get an actual license plate and you are considered a vehicle not meant to use regular bike lanes.

Lots of manufacturers stop calling that frame shape woman's bikes, but rather find terms like step through or low step and so on to be better suited. This frame design is a lot more accessible for people who aren't as mobile anymore (think old people, people with hip problems, heavy people) and are also much easier to handle with tall cargo on the back, typical example would be a child seat.

For the average person, this frame design is probably preferable as there are no benefits to the typical male frame shape.

My parents think it looks odd when a guy sits on one of these, but then my parents are in their sixties :>

This whole thread is a perfect example of "feeding the troll" :D

Capitalism has you thinking that these are our only options

I know someone responsible for these labels and descriptions for a fairly large company, can absolutely confirm this will happen a lot. The product has to go out to the stores and there is just no time to get these translation anymore. I also know of products that shipped to large stores with false information on the label, knowingly because changing it would take too much time and money.

I'm always reminded of the YouTube channel technology connections and his famous line "but sometimes...!" It really is a non issue almost all of the time but people always act like they will spend 60 minutes at a fast charger every day.

Da wird auch schon dran gearbeitet, glaube 4,2t ist der Plan. Weil Elektro Autos ja sehr schwer sind...

The German word "Mist" translates to "Shit" btw

These must be solid brakes

Seriously it has sort of changed the world. I know I'm just handing all my location data to Google but the way it works and the features it offers are amazing and I cannot imagine a world anymore in which I might get lost if I just take a wrong turn somewhere. That combined with the free messaging has made "finding" anything location related a non issue. I can send people a location to meet, I can look up an address someone gave me, I can send my spouse my live location while I'm on my way home to let her know how far I'm out, I can find a hardware store in a town I've never been to because I need to tape to fix my bag or whatever, people write helpful comments about where to park or whatever. Maps will suggest different routes for pedestrians, cyclists, drivers or find you a public transportation route if you wish, including (usually) the exact time your train or bus or whatever leaves. It's fantastic

Was ihr Lappen

The movie has an interesting story about how so much was cut or couldn't even be filmed and the editing ended up all over the place, the movie ist barely coherent at times. But the feeling I got just thinking about that place was captivating nonetheless, great movie. Captures the vastness and loneliness of space well imo
