minus-square SteevyT ( @SteevyT@beehaw.org ) linkfedilink2•1 month ago Lime’s shared e-scooters, which weigh about 50kg, How the hell? My wife’s full fucking ebike is just barely over 25kg. And it’s a beefcake of a an aluminum bike with a 28mph top assisted speed and range of “yes.”
minus-square JillyB ( @JillyB@beehaw.org ) linkfedilink2•1 month agoI don’t think that’s right. We have limes in my city and I’ve picked them up. It might be right though. They have to be stupid robust because people are treating them like toys they don’t own.
