Seven Generational Ruminations

Discussion group for anyone with a Surly frame pimped out with an Xtracycle Kit.

The Big Dummy frameset is a cargo "longbike" designed in cooperation with XtraCycle to take the modular components used in their FreeRadical system. This should make for a sturdier XtraCycle than the bolt-on kit distributed by XtraCycle themselves.

The Stokemonkey is an electric bicycle drive system meant to be used on a bicycle that has the XtraCycle frame addition built in. Because of the XtraCycle frame, the Stokemonkey has awesome cargo capacity.

Most electric bike products are designed for people who don't, won't, or can't ride regular bicycles. Stokemonkey is different. They don't believe in replacing human power with electricity; we believe in replacing cars for tasks that even the strongest bicyclists seldom if ever undertake on human power alone. Developed in a car-free household, Stokemonkey is for fellow riders who want to become more completely independent of cars in their daily lives.
