Well thanks professor. I must say that Papamotors and Ping batteries have proven themselves honest and super business resources. Tonight they refunded me the full purchase price on that post. In a sense it is a shame, because it seemed solid and looked very nice. It could be I had a defective one, but I want to stress they have refunded my rack as I had already replaced it from a local bike shop. Yeah the flying post probably would be better as a standard rack. In my case of usage I ride mainly a concrete bike path, some dirt but no real big bumps. I also ride pretty slowly too. My speed averages around 12mph on average give or take so again I followed their procedures.
For those of you wondering, this company has to me proven itself rock solid in taking care of me. I feel that having dealt through my life time with many companies, these guys and gal (Julie) do care about me, and I cannot stress how very important that is. Both Papamotors and Li Ping's battery have proven so far to be great folks.
