Bike Accessory Recommendations (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

Hi all, I have a new (Bulls) ebike, and am hoping to get some recommendations on accessories including:

  • Cargo rack bag (what is this called?), I have the rack over my rear tire, but need something that can carry a modest amount of things, thinking a bag of groceries would be nice to fit in there. (I couldn't pick up a bag of sugar today and having something that can carry things would help)
  • Water bottle holder
  • Cameras maybe? Reading the other thread thinking about a coupe
  • Repair kit/emergency kit

I have a bike shop but they're more repair/new bikes, and don't have many accessories so I'll probably be limited to unfortunately Amazon, but of course prefer smaller sellers. Thanks!

Alll great, thank you! I've had it a few months and have some base riding, and completely agree, cars for the most part do not give a shit about you, and view me as an annoyance. Had my first driver swerve into the oncoming lane just to get around me (going up a blind hill), so at least they put themselves in danger I guess? Funny thing is I was going about 28 in a 25 already, my friends warned me that no matter what I'll always be going "too slow" for drivers and they'll feel forced to go around.

Still it is a gamechanger. I can go to appointments now much easier, and generally get around my neighborhood easier. I avoid going on any stroads or anything with 4 lanes, keeping it to my neighborhood for now

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
