There's a guy on reddit with this error and I can't find any info on it.  not in either english language help center or anywhere else.

wanna help the guy out.  has anyone here ever seen that error and know what it means?

This is how I deliver your food and groceries in Albuquerque

Now that my warranty is over in days here (extended warranty didn't exist when I bought my bike obviously). So looking at potential upgrades.
Is anyone aware of a heavier front fork spring I could throw in there since the stock spring is so light?
best dual battery box?

Not currently considering 35A until someone makes one that can deal with the premium headlight. I like that thing too much to get rid of it.

thanks in advance

So it's looking like tuesday or wednesday is the soonest he can get it back on the rack (work ahead of me needs to go first, which I totally understand.  Plus with forests out here shutting down for the summer he's not working this weekend to bomb some downhill trails which I 100% approve of.  I want my bike repair dude happy).

See attached picture for what the major problem was and sadly because of that, the bike was only partially setup when I took delivery, so Gator will have to do a complete new setup (although I get the feeling the setups he does are "noice" according to all the mountain bike heads in this state that use him.  Again, he's basically the best bike tech in our entire state).

But turns out he actually lives in my apartment complex, so free delivery when he's done lol

And that's where we are at

That fender mount hole should be an easy fix with a drill and tap!

Yeah Gator at The Bikesmith seemed to think it was a no sweat deal to fix (I think he already has).

But the bike wasn't finished being setup and nothing was torqued he said.  So he needs time to basically start over and is going over every bolt, screw, and nut.  Bedding the brakes and making sure it?s perfect.

Picked up the bike, it's at the repair shop already though lol.

Turns out it was totally described incorrectly to me.  the top screw by the forks, looks like it was misdrilled.  It's actually too small and will need to be drilled more (which is good news).  the tail light was falling off by the time I rode it to the repair shop and a few other bolts were loose by the time I got there (almost 5 miles away from where I picked it up).  Brakes were not bed in correctly either.  All of these things I anticipate will be resolved as the repair guy I took it to is apparently the best bike repair guy in the state.  His name is Gator, so I totally believe it.  greeted us with an open long sleeve shirt with a t shirt under it.  Guy looked like he could be "the dude"'s cousin or something. 

So hopefully everything will be resolved tomorrow.  But the funny part was my wife had to drive the car to the repair shop to pick me up but with all of the bike trails kamoot had me take.  I was only about 4 minutes behind her.

I'm really glad I bought the comfort seat for sure.  I feel like I might even want a suspension post for this to be a true car replacement.

I'm still blown away by how quickly bike trails got me from point a to point b.  I feel like ebikes might be a transportation cheat code for life.

You can only mount the large basket sideways - see below.  I think I would bungie cord a milk crate rather than screw in a basket because I have fallen a few times.  I think an impact from a fall would ruin the basket, the rack and maybe the frame - of course, I am not wishing you ill and I wish it never happens to you.  For the same reason - avoiding damage from a fall - I did not put in a front basket.  On the other hand, my rear rack does not have a scratch despite multiple falls because it is narrow I guess.

From Rad Web Page:

Installation Instructions [for large basket]                 

The Large Basket should only be mounted perpendicularly to the bike as shown in the product images. The only exception to this is when mounting the Large Basket to the rear deck of the RadWagon, in which case it can be mounted either perpendicularly or lengthwise.

I saw a guy either here or on reddit that made an adapter "board" to mount onto the back rack to mount it "longways".  But I don't have the means or skillset to make something like that myself.  but apparently he thought the bike balanced much better that way.

If this bike is a replacement for a car and will be left outside of stores while shopping, you should consider locking options.  IMO the best involves a chain secured to a fixed stand (like a bike stand anchored in concrete.  First step in locking, turn the key off to the battery to prevent it from being driven way...Chains next...

I picked up the Abus wheel lock and optional chain for starters, I'm also planning on a basic D lock as well as a gps tracker (still haven't decided if im going with airtag or spending for the tmobile lte tracker and extra line on my account.

waking up this morning, im feeling so much anxiety about those forks.

I'm honestly really trying to see the bright side of my "new situation" as a bike commuter, but if I'm honest.  I wouldn't have picked this as my first choice.  keeping my car would have been my first choice but this pandemic hasn't exactly been kind to me so im having to "give back" my car to the bank.

And it just seems like everything about this whole thing is going wrong on top of everything else.

god I need life to give me a break.

Id actually prefer long ways, but I thought I saw a guy on this forum that had to make an adapter plate to mount it that way, which is a means I don't have at the moment.

Sorry about the image quality but here's the pic they sent of my bike!

I guess there was an issue with the front fender bolts being "shredded".  I don't have more info on that but wondering what you guys think having received yours as to what I might be looking at.  Whatever it is, I'm hoping it's something I can resolve myself tomorrow.  *fingers crossed*.  Thoughts?

Also, you can see how I really didn't think through that saddle bag purchase.  Could I flip that around and would it still work?

I still don't see the rad mirror or gub phone holder I ordered, but im hoping it's something they plan to knock out in the morning.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance for your insight

Sitting here reading this thread, while thinking about how my e-bike has been sitting at what is mostly an ebike rental store.  Which I'm pretty sure only employs 1 person part time that actually knows how to build a bike.

Yeah I'm pretty much shitting my pants right now.

I'm totally screwed aren't I? 

Give it to me straight.
