I'm alway hesitant on lending out my ebike to other people because in my mind too many out there are idiots. My boss usually borrow my bike for small errand like coffee and snacks. I usually accept but follow follow along setting up battery, turning on switches, and giving direction until the last minute of departure. Lately i've been skeptical and keep saying no. Anyway...today i cave in and said yes. Oh boy do i regret it. I didn't notice anything differently when he came back because he doesn't pedal but as we were closing up the guy said sorry earlier he stopped some where. When he parked it, it tipped over and scratched the handle bar.
I said it's alright not a big deal, but i was skeptical and have a further look at the bike. At the moment i'm doubting the whole tipped over thing. My front fork is dented a bit near the dropout. left rubber handle was scratched up, brakes lever scratched up...both side. His store start out saying it tip to the left so i agree with the left handle scratched up. Further investigation show my right pedal also was scratched up. This lead to seeing the front derailleur is bent inward. Following that i notice the rear dérailleur is now pointing toward the spokes. I'm pretty sure dérailleur doesn't have negative camber. From that view i looked up and my battery bag was scratched up. Some of the zipper has popped their position. Nylon show some fraying. Rear rack was bent. Oh and the best part. My throttle is stuck. If i twist it to max position, i would have to turn it back to decrease because the return spring doesn't work. So now when i brake i can't just release throttle and apply brake. Have to twist the throttle back and then brake.
No one is touching my bikes again. I'll make copy of full repair reembursement agreement and have them sign it before taking it out. Okay...enough venting. Back to banging and adjusting my drive train.
