modded moulton??
There was the Ortre Cinco available for a while that was designed in sydney. Rear loaded only but is pretty schmick.
Have always kinda wanted an orbea katu ebike…
yeah, I reckon they’re close to being the perfect shops/pub bike. If I didn’t have kids it’d be the perfect bike for kicking around on, pub/shops/whatever.
Only thing that makes me second guess getting one is from experience of having a 20" front wheel on my clydesdale voodoo - sometimes kerbs/large potholes/uneven transitions are a bit sketchier than expected with a 20"?
Fatter front tyre might help a bit?
Like dis
4" tyres
It actually looks like a Orbea Katu that has gone to the gym alot

Cheap surly 1x1, melbs
that’s a thing of beauty.
Close to me if anyone’s interested.
want!
anyone know how wide i can go with tires?
Apparently 2.75" - according to surly legacy page but might depend on the year of the frame.
Reckon this would also be fun for my clydesdale fork but think A-C of the fork was bumped up to ~450 from ~410 so would look/ride a bit weird.
fuck, i really hope the owner is actually the dude in the avatar.

you can go real big. I have one with 2.35" big apples on it and there’s room to swing a cat. I’d go measure it but it’s at my sister’s house.
Oh, looks like that one sold.
