I have 3 bikes right now. An upright ebike for around town and short trips, a recumbent ebike for 50+ mile trips, and a mtb/commuter (mostly to handle the winters). I ride everywhere around town, and I do lots of bike camping around my area.

I have a regular cheap no-name bike. I usually ride it to do groceries or to spend some time in the forest. I drive it to work too if it takes no more than 30 minutes. I added a wire basket to fit more stuff. It’s in need of mainteance, I got a flat tire 2 days ago, oops.

I ride an Easy Motion Evo Eco bought secondhand from a bike swap. i call her Thora, that’s her if this picture loads correctly. i mostly use it for my tiny commute of 3 miles round trip in rural western Colorado.

I am riding a Tern GSD S00 and have put about 100miles/mo on the bike in the last 18mo for errands and commutes to my 2 kids school.

I love the bike but the maintenance is quite a pain. In particular replacing brake pads is annoying due to all of the accessories. Also, the lock failed and a caliper exploded requiring a warranty replacement.

Cargo ebikes are awesome but it seems the hardware needs to be heavier duty to make maintenance less fussy.
