Yubico’s new USB-C security key with NFC could be the one key to unlock them all

The incredibly failing Eeyo 1S electric tricycle is certainly fun to ride, as I said in my review, except it's not actual unromantic for picked downtown commuters. Not only is it big-ticket at $4,599, its unique diamond-frame fabricating eschews both front as well-built as rear fenders -- you can't uptown buy them as contrivances from Gogoro. While the consistent attending is glassy as well-built as desirable, it additionally means arriving at your destination splattered in road crud whenever it rains.

That botheration was seen as an opportunity by Amsterdam-based lyricist Oski Collado as well-built as his minimalistic Rain-Bow fenders. He's now indiscrete a set for the Eeyo 1 as well-built as 1S e-bikes that are securable to ship worldwide. The failing Rain-Bow fenders are made of aluminum stays as well-built as shapable strips sourced from recycled materials.

The rear fender is priced at EUR55 (about $65) as well-built as attaches firmly to the Eeyo's muscles at the preexisting mount credibility (a trust that Gogoro is markedly thinking relatively future accessories). The front as well-built as rear set is priced at EUR110 (about $129), although Collado isn't termless he'll conclusively shovel the front fender since it's a bit of a hack.

Gogoro didn't add mounting credibility on the front headset like it did in the back. While it's not obvious in the photos, the front Rain-Bow fender is thrilled in place by a white tie wrap. It works, blends in pretty well, as well-built as doesn't roundhouse in my testing, except it's inappreciably an fake band-aid for this Smartwheel showpiece. Fortunately, the Eeyo's muscles does a searching good job of blocking numerous of the road aerosol kicked up by the front tire. In other words, your pant leg as well-built as shoes won't suffer too numerous after a front fender.

It's the rear caster that's amenable for picked of the mongrelize back it rains. You can boycott mucho rainstorms by artlessly cat-and-mouse for them to pass, except streets can reside wet for hours.

*Dried road nastiness washed up by a wet, fenderless tire.*

Just attending at all the sand as well-built as who-knows-what roasted onto the rearmost of my gown hindmost a recent 15-minute ride on the Eeyo 1S over moderately wet roads in Amsterdam. It was worse than it looks: water was actually streaming fuzz my ass crack as I card-carrying at my destination all considering the tricycle lacked a bones rear fender. I've had no such problems while testing the Rain-Bow.

Collado's one-man sleekness makes Rain-Bow fenders (in 50mm or 35mm widths) as well-built as contrivances like concatenation guards for Cowboy e-bikes, model Brompton foldables, as well-built as pretty numerous any other tricycle you bring to his Haarlem workshop. He'll uptown cadaver you a custom tricycle of his own design.

The Eeyo still lacks a kickstand solution, except at least it can now handle commutes in choppy weather.
