$4000ish US? For my money I'd buy a Wike salamander and put a motor on it.
unless there's roll bars built into that frame, the seatbelts arent going to do a lot.
Keeps the kids in their seats when you're doing a sick jump!
You can't be serious with this design. Really? The cyclist is in the back? You're now pushing the load instead of pulling it. Why would you make a bike like that?Edit: oh my god I'm losing my mind. The one in the article only has two wheels. I swear it had three!
You have never seen a cargo bike before? This is an established design
Agreed. Not only is this very common, bikes like the UrbanArrow (which share this design) are said to be some of the best handling cargo bikes out there. Too bad they’re prohibitively expensive.
Very very cheap, if they replace a car (as our cargo bike does)
Nope, the bikes I've seen always have it in the back. When I think of a cargo bike I think of a rickshaw or, if it's motorized, a tuk-tuk. Why would you want the cargo in the front? I'm pretty sure that'd make it a lot less stable.
Having driven multiple models of cargo bikes, some with cargo in the back, having an overview of your whole bike and only having the main tire behind you handels way better. Taking corners and leaning into a curve feels way more intuitive.
Is that one wheel in the back, two in front, or two wheels in back, one in front? The bike in the article has one front wheel, two back wheels. I'm just surprised that it's more stable to put the weight closer to the single wheel than the dual wheels.

Please never go to the netherlands or places like Copenhagen, your mind will melt.
