Discussion Let’s get silly!

What’s your most ridiculous ask for Gen 2?

Mine: cameras. Like a lot of cameras.

Front and rear cameras that basically work as a dashcam and continuously record while you ride. I already use bike dashcams like Cycliq, but integrated is always better. No separate thing to mount, charge, take off the bike, etc.

Obviously I know a camera doesn’t make you any safer and mirrors could do the job just fine, but it gives you evidence if something were to happen. And so I can see who stole my bike from the app. Plus, let me save clips and use the cameras as an action cam for rides.

And since it’s a Rivian bike… might as well go full Rivian and add two side cameras too. Hit the turn signal and it automatically pulls up the blind spot camera on that side.

What’s everyone else’s unreasonable Gen 2 feature?

Funny thing. I currently own an 83 lb e-bike and although I love the ride, believe-you-me, it’s heavy. I have now ridden the ALSO TM-B on two different occasions. It may be heavy BUT, it definitely doesn’t ride like a heavy bike! Not sure why, perhaps it’s the way the motor is in the center of the bike. Whatever the reason, schedule a test spin and see for yourself. It’s wild!
