A fun, street legal toy.

This is my Ebike that I ride around in Chicago. It is completely folding ebike with suspension, making for a super smooth ride all throughout the city. It uses the same exact parts as the Booter does, just so I could use parts interchangeably if needed in the future.
For the build, I upgraded the seat and tried adding hydraulic brakes but failed. Learned how to not put on hydraulic brakes! I gave up on this because the caliper needed very specific mounting to align with the disc brake wheel, and I didn't have the will to kill two birds with one stone.
I had the privilege of cheating the entire Bike The Drive event with it as its first long distance trial run. Was an absolute dream to ride the bike down Lake Shore, and all the way up, still having 20-30% battery left to spare.

Most of the electronics, as you may have noticed, used to be in a lunch box. This was alright for the entire bike Bike the Drive event, but had to go for everyday use.
A friend of mine 3d printed a box that screws into the drink holder of the bike. This holds all of the wires that used to be in the lunch box, while holding the speed controller in place for pretty much, active cooling, while in motion.
Thanks for the box, Tristan.

I live in a pretty small space now, so honestly the best part of this bike is that it fits in my closet. Kinda crazy how nice it is to store.
