1st week using my converted vintage
1st week of using my e-converted vintage for work, have to say it's far nicer to ride and quieter than my pevious commuter. Manage to fit my lunch and a laptop in the saddlebag.
Doing 18-22km each day, average speed is around 30kph.

I guess that's rear-wheel drive? Is the battery in that left pannier? It would be nice if all that wiring could be made more tidy, but what really draws the eye is those yellow tires -- they really pop against the green!

The other wire is from the original lights, this will also be tidied up
