aCheviot wanting to trade for a Clem L?

I can verify a battery fits perfectly on a Cheviot. The only drawback for me was the caliper brakes, but that was my fault for putting a monster mid-drive kit on it..the damn thing was as fast as a small motorcycle! Your kit should be fine on one.

This thread, along with the consistently very positive reviews of Clems and Cheviots and other "cruiser"-type Rivendells makes me think about buying one of these long-stayed, upright Rivs with an electric motor of some sort, particularly as I progress ineluctably toward senility; perhaps a elegant Copenhagen wheel?I myself put fewer than 200 miles on my old car between a mid-January 2020 oil change and mid June -- this is not virtue, this is simply a very quiet life and several bicycles and living near things; my daughter, Covid-ed home from college in mid-March, put another ~1,200 miles on it between 1st May and mid-July.But for those days when it is windy, or rainy (I have Sou'wester hat and rain cape and spats), or when I want to carry big loads, an electric bike may be a real option, and if this bike retains something of the "feel" of the best Rivs I've already owned, then all the better.With that windup, will you-plural post photos and descriptions of your electrified Rivendells? And tell us how much they can carry, and how you carry it?Thanks.--On Fri, Aug 7, 2020 at 12:50 PM Joe Bernard <joer...@gmail.com> wrote:I can verify a battery fits perfectly on a Cheviot.

Speaking of Cheviots..if you don't buy one soon then keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming Platypus. It's going to be a Cheviot with v-brakes and more tire clearance, would make an excellent eRiv me-thinks.

I think the Clem L is a great platform for the juice, but as Dave alluded to it can be tricky to fit a battery on the toptube (where the bottle cage bolts are) because they're often the longer than the amount of real estate there. An ePlatypus would be great.
Mark,
