I got one of those surly cornerbars (offbrand) and they're fucking great, would recommend to everyone. Easily the most comfy handlebars I've ever owned.

Also currently trying to piece together the perfect small size at most medium weight bicycle EDC pouch to chuck in my panniers so I can field repair my entire shit and also help other people.

Pretty sure I'll put some bar ends in there just to slap them into random bicycles so people don't core sample themselves. I am the velocipedal crusader, you will be saved from doctors having to extract a tubular 21mm cross section of yourself so they can figure out what the fuck you managed to lose because you didn't think to put 50 eurodollarcents of bar ends on your stuff.

what e bikes y'all got

I bought one but it's so fucking heavy (20-25kg) that it's sort of impractical

I bought a used Heybike Mars last year for $800. Use for Uber Eats on weekends. Has like a 35 mile range if you use pedal assist on the lowest level. It's also a fucking tank so taking it on public transport and going up and down stairs is a pain in the ass.
