The Sundiro S07 eBike by Honda

Due to the continuous rise in fuel prices, people are trying everything to combat transportation expenses. One of the most popular way to do this is to ride your Bike to work. Yeah, this is easier said than done. With the right gear and an appropriate level of confidence, you can tackle a bicycling going to work. If you’re still not totally comfortable toughing it out yourself, try to find a riding buddy. “I got through the hassle of Cycling by my best friend riding in with me to work,” one of the bike-to-work enthusiast says. “It was a blessing, suffering together. She would drop me off and then go do her base miles. Now, my boyfriend and I will commute in together, and he drops me off and then goes to work. I’ll go swing by his job and we will ride home. It’s awesome.”

If you find yourself sweating too much and always having a second thought on riding your Bike to work, you might want to consider having an eBike instead.

Introducing The Sundiro S07 by car manufacturer giant Honda.


Sundiro Honda is a joint venture between the Sundiro Group and Honda Motor Company. Its local distributor started selling foldable electric bikes in 2020 and is now venturing into other segments. The latest addition to its range of offerings is this: the Sundiro Honda S07.

If so happen that you see this kind of eBike on the road, we know that of course you took a second look and said WOW that's beautiful. The S07 does have a very sleek and minimalist design, with popping color options to boot. It’s not that eye-catching in terms of size, though, as it only measures 1,725mm long, 685mm wide, and 1,020mm tall with a 1,220mm wheelbase.


The tiny footprint does mean it’s very rider-friendly, as it only has a 725mm-high seat and weighs 54.7kg. And since it can only operate up to speeds of 50kph, it falls under the L1b category for e-bikes, so it can be used without registration or without the rider having a license. Wearing a helmet, however, is required.

If you're worried what LTO or the Land Transportation Office have to say about this, this is their official statement, “Allowed to go beyond barangay roads to cover other local roads, provided that it will take the outermost part of the road adjacent to the sidewalk. It can pass main thoroughfares and national roads for purposes of crossing roads that have been divided by the aforementioned thoroughfares, but they should yield the right of way to incoming traffic.”


Now that you know what you need to know about traffic violations if you ride eBikes, let's go on with our Sundiro S07 specifications. The Sundiro Honda S07 packs a 48V 24Ah lithium-ion battery with a 400W 48V brushless Bosch motor. As mentioned, it tops out at 50kph, and the maximum estimated real-world range is around 60km on one full charge.

The e-bike is equipped with a disc brake up front and drum brake out back. It gets a small LCD display for its instrument cluster, and it has an LED headlamp up front.

This Honda Sundiro S07 is already available here in the Philippines and retails at roughly around Php 80,000 pesos.

Cheerio!

The Most Expensive Philippine Coin Ever Sold

I personally am fond of collecting old coins. I have an ample collection, and decent if I may add, of Philippine old coins. Though I collect coins for a hobby, some people kept on asking me how I acquire those coins and if I’m selling one. So in some cases, when I visit the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (Central Bank of the Philippines), I always try to order an additional from my own to sell or give it as a gift to my friends. I always wonder, what Philippine coin is the most expensive ever sold, and how much. Priced at $22, 000 or Php 1,038,136.00 as of this writing ($1 = Php 47.19), the 1903 San Francisco Mint fifty centavos is perhaps the most expensive United States-Philippines coin ever sold. Only 2 specimens have reported and only one formally auctioned for the price mentioned. Do not mistake this one for the common 1903 Philadelphia Mint fifty centavos. This coin is an absolute rarity. How this coin surfaced? The story behind that incident is still a myste

The Great Badjang or Giant Taro

As we try to come up with things to do to make our days productive this Pandemic, a lot of people are leaning towards Gardening. Here in the Philippines, people are becoming crazy with a certain plant. It has large leaves which resembles an Elephant’s ear. Badjang, as we call it here in the Philippines, scientifically called Alocasia macrorrhizos, is a species of flowering plant in the arum family that it is native to rainforests of Island Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Queensland and has long been cultivated here in the Philippines, many Pacific islands, and elsewhere in the tropics. It is also famous as Giant Taro. The giant taro was originally domesticated in the Philippines, but are known from wild specimens to early Austronesians in Taiwan. From the Philippines, they spread outwards to the rest of Island Southeast Asia and eastward to Oceania where it became one of the staple crops of Pacific Islanders. They are one of the four main species of aroids (taros) cultivated by Austron

Hanamichi Sakuragi: In Real Life

I am not that young, though I am not that old to have watched the Manga Series Slum Dunk. A lot of people is being fascinated with the game of basketball. Almost everyone knows how to play the game. Maybe, just maybe, NBA really popularized the sports. Apparently, one story caught my attention, and surely, it is really worth to tell ;-) Slam Dunk (スラムダンク Suramu Danku?) is a sports-themed manga series written by Takehiko Inoue about a basketball team from Shōhoku High School. It was first serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump in Japan from 1990 to 1996 and had also been adapted into an anime series by Toei Animation which had been broadcast worldwide, enjoying much popularity particularly in Japan, several other Asian countries and Europe. Inoue later used basketball as a central theme in two subsequent manga titles: Buzzer Beater and Real. In 2010, Inoue received special commendations from the Japan Basketball Association for helping popularize basketball in Japan.
