Thanks JCM. I've been wanting an english 3-speed type, but since this bike came along and was only $60 from craigslist, I couldnt resius. And I already invested quite a bit in it so the 3-speed will have to wait. Besides, the 3-speed might be a bit too fragile for the electric assist kit.

She totally replaced my car on short to medium trips, errands and even recreational shopping. I only use my car on trips more than 20 miles or to go to work so I only use the car less than 40% of the time now. And since I live in a dense area, I don't really need to go too far.

Just a couple of question, what happened to your brooks, and what rear tire are you using?
