ebike share deal

Post by art walsh » Sat Jul 16, 2022 6:32 am

Solo camper flying in from florida. Due to bad back (75 yrs old) will need an ebike to get around.
Looking to connect with trustworthy burner for the following.
Will have new Heybike Mars shipped to you a couple of weeks before BM - beginning of August. You would assemble and charge battery. You would be free to use the bike until BM opens. You could use during build week.
I will be arriving on Sunday August 28. Would connect with you at that point. Would also consider letting you use part of the time during the week in exchange for access to power to recharge. Haven't decided what I'll do with the bike at end of BM. Sell at 1/2 price (~$550?) maybe.
Email me if this sounds interesting to you. Please, only burners with a history on eplaya.

12ah battery, 48volts= 576 watt hours.
This bike has a 500 watt motor and you have no generator, or exit strategy. You are looking at a lot of charging so you and your cohort will need to be camped close to each other, I think. Do you have a neighborhood in mind? It’s a specific match. I hope it works out for you.

I got a heybike ranger folding ebike so that I can fit it in my Subaru. So if you’re driving in a folding bike might be a better fit
Oh my god, it's HUGE!

Walt Whitman said, “Poets are the joiners. They see how things join.” Just Joe has a beautiful giant solar panel trailer he got for a song from either a wanna be Ponzi that collapsed, or a visionary co. way ahead of it’s time that collapsed. A good fit for art walsh… well done, Lonesomebri.

Yeah, leave it to bri to "facilitate".
He's mastered being a player without actually assuming any responsibilities. I'm in awe.

@Elorum, the solar trailer has found a new home elsewhere. I'll be running running 200Watt/100AH Lifepo4 on our travel trailer along with my similar-sized, standalone homebuilt Solar Generator. I can't run the AC, but hey, it's a camping trip.

@Lucky, bring that folding bike to Perseids and race me!

Hey Joe! An influencer before it was a thing. Ebike, race for pinks! Considering Persieds. Have a 100watt panel in my west facing window, good for stereo and device charging, 35ah agm sla. Not much power in winter, but my neighbors built a two story building in their backyard, so it serves for privacy too.
