That’s not that many (╥﹏╥)
How many do you think it takes?
Too fucking late
We're in the market for a kid carrying ebike, and while REI makes the most financial sense, I think we'll be paying a visit to our LBS.
As an aside, I tend to prefer Sports Basement. Have had better luck with their bike department, too. No idea if they're better from a corporate standpoint though.
LBS FTW
Hell yeah on LBS.
Sigh. Where do I shop instead? Anywhere that actually supports cooperative efforts?

When the mask accidentally slips.
The finding out stage is upon us
