Everything you wanted to know about the YouBike

I do not like the 2.0 ergonomics.

Besides what I posted last year I also realize more like

The handlebars are too low and stiff and compounds the jarring on to the upper body when you’re forced to lean over on them.

Low handlebars and leaning forwards puts more weight towards the front of the bike instead of the center or back of the bike. For me it translate into higher chance of losing control.

The smaller basket is too high throwing off the center of balance especially on the front of the bike.

The 2.0 bike ergonomics are messed up. I can’t sit straight up and touch the handlebars. They put these big muffin handle grips on the handlebars because they know people have to lean over on them. Adds stress to lower back and shoulders. Look at people riding, they’re kind of hunched over and weight is leaning forward on the handlebar at an awkward angle. Chiropractor would probably vote no.
