ericgoesoutsideon Oru Kayak’s reckless and irresponsible advertising

That's a pretty strong selling point. How close to 8 minutes is that in practice? (I see a review on moosejaw for the Bay ST where they mention having an eventual goal of assembling the thing in under 10 minutes)

I owned a Folbot for a while, and while they advertised sub-20 minute assembly times, it was really more like 30, which involved a fair amount of cursing at and struggling in 90-degree weather with the skin that never really stretched out to fit the frame. Moving to a sit-on-top that I can just throw on top of the car in 10 minutes on each side of the trip was a big win for me.

ericgoesoutsideon Ask HN: How do you find the weird parts of the web?

Heh, my screentime went up this last week because I also recently discovered this rabbithole during a downtime from regular game night. Reading through old Zine-Quest (https://www.kickstarter.com/zine-quest) entries has been particularly fascinating.
