1500 mile update

1500 miles and the batteries are still holding up well. 160 cycles. Hottest commute temperatures 97 coldest 55 in the last 500 miles. The only problem so far has been a catastrophic failure of the bike rack and the quick wear on the 23c rear tire. The rack was a pretty cheap and probably only designed to hold about 25 pounds and since switching frames I'm running a 28C on the back now and the ride quality is so much better. Fenders are next but will have to wait a little since I spent that money on a new rack.
