RunForTheHills said:This bike? Aside from the issue with the single gear, have you thought about where you would mount a battery on the bike? You don't need a large battery for 9-10 miles round trip, maybe you could put the battery in a saddle bag hanging off of the seat. Anything else you are carrying to and from work would have to be in a backpack.
E-HP said:When I was looking into it, I was looking for a long top tube steel frame, with 1 1/8" head tube, and very little triangle. The plan was to replace the fork with a 110mm front suspension fork, which would relax the head angle (and maybe make the bike more stable, instead of twitchy, at higher speeds), but also allow me to mount a Hailong pack under the downtube. The frames I've seen that meet those specs are expensive, so just casually keeping an eye out. The other option was 24" BMX, which also seem to cost a lot. I also thought of using a 100mm front hub in the rear, and changing the side cover to allow a single speed freewheel to be added to it.
