Was right behind an ugly crash today. We were going about 35 mph with a trash truck blocking the opposite lane. A driver behind the truck pulled pulled out across the double yellow, people hit the brakes, and one rider went down hard. Looked like a fractured clavicle and very painful. Felt terrible and glad I wasn’t involved. The driver and trash men both treated us to a stream of invective as they drove off.

My wife likes the idea of getting out with me and the kids, and a motor would certainly help extend the feasible range a bit.
I kind of like the idea of a utilitarian ebike for myself, for running to pick up groceries or beer or whatever, but other things are higher on the list.

I may have to post this in “bicycle mechanics” but will start local. I have a Williams 38 crabon wheel that is 10s but would like to convert to 11s if possible. Williams wheels is defunct. Any idea how to find a compatible freehub body? See pics below:

100 degrees today so some of us drove to the coast and rode on PCH. 50 miles and it wasn't too hot there and we stopped at a place on the way back and I split an order of chili fries with a friend.

I don’t think so because the 10s cassette fits perfectly with just the small (0.8mm?) spacer on the bottom. I believe I need 1.8mm for 11s.
I hope I am wrong but suspect it’s 8/9/10 and not 11.
ps where did you find that???

She does see the benefit for those who otherwise cannot get out and ride.

No interest from LSS either. She does look at Nordic Tugs with a certain interest, though.
