Roberta,
I was reading a little about the safety value of the Tigr lock - some of what I
read was not favorable. I use my Tigr lock to secure my front wheel because I
don’t want to be bothered with removing it for locking. Good luck with this!

Dear all,
First, I appreciate being part of this discussion group and reading your
thoughts on one of the favorite parts of my life (bikes).
My psychology of riding has been heavily influenced by Grant’s Just Ride, that
he gave me when I purchased my Roadini. I started to feel less need to

I love the way your bike looks! I have a grilvered colored Roadini with
Albastache bars. My bike a joy to ride with the more upright positioning
compared to the drops I used to have. May your girlfriend have much joy in
riding this beauty. Great color.

Patrick,
Great story! Did you really push the lady in the ditch?
I have an electric bike I used to ride to work (till a few weeks ago, when I
switched to riding solely human powered bikes) - I have Zound horn on that bike
to use with cars - it will definitely get people’s attention!

Roberta,
On the plus side, the Tigr lock is light. I needed some practice to easily
get the locking device off the lock and then to reinstall it - still working on
that. I have had a learning curve to get the lock thru my seat stays and
spokes, and to do it in a way that I don’t bung up the
Thanks, Roberta! That is very kind of you. The Tigr sounds like it could
address your goal of lightening your bike. I have played around with the idea
of putting another Tigr lock on my Clem and leaving the Albus at home unless I
need it to lock my bike and my wife’s together. My Clem is a

Leah, you may already be aware of these products but there are some clothing
that are designed to protect the active person form UV. I have never tried
this type of clothing in weather such as you get in Vegas. Good luck! As a

A delta trike might work. Stable and easier to get into and out of than a

I use an Abus Bordo Granite (heavy but very well rated) to go thru the
frame and rear wheel and whatever I am locking the bike to, and a Tigr Lock
to lock the front wheel to my frame. Both locks mount to my frame. I also
tend toward being over insured.

I agree with Joe. If your Dad is not in great shape, a motor could be a
great bridge. You can also check out Electric Bike Review. They have a
category for electric trikes and some are upright.

Welcome, Guenther! Glad to meet another bike loving person. I commute on a
Clem Smith and I was thinking what a great ride that bike, and my Roadini give.
I look forward to having the same or better joy.

I have the large front rack from Rivendell. Looks great. I like the larger
size compared to their other offerings. Most importantly, it is rated for
weight in the low 20 lb range - something I need.
Good luck! Fun project.
