I had actually contacted Worksman at one point. They waranteed out the pedals and the shifter. Those were fixed at the shop. Nonetheless, the issues with them are indicators. I have no doubts that the thing could be ridden by cockroaches after the nuclear apocalypse, just so long as it isn't parked out in the rain.

But it does not do the ONE THING I GOT IT TO BE ABLE TO DO, and it has all sorts of minor rust after just two exposures to rain. Some of that looks like it creeps into some of the basket welds. I've had enough issues, some fairly inherent, that I can't justify owning the thing. Had it slipped neatly in and out of bus racks and not shown all the weather resistance of the Wicked Witch of the West, I could have dealt with the problems. Those aren't little 'oh we'll drop it off at the shop' issues. I need reliable utility transportation 365 days a year, and I need to be able to throw it on a bus.
