is there a logic/reason for the shape ?
You put a box in the front for cargo/children. Look up 'bakfiets'.
I don't know what I find most scary.. the idea of trying to steer a roundabout whilst in full aero or trying to stop.

So when you pull out of a side road you can't see properly out of your kid screams and gets wiped out...
Hmmm
Cargo in shape of carrier bags that hook onto those bull horns? 😉

Think of it as an opportunity to teach your kids road safety.
Express deliveries by bike.
I saw a woman riding an electric one in Edinburgh one day, with two kids in a box on the front.
I pointed it out to the passengers on my bus.
Every single one of them commented that they thought it was brilliant.

Hence the tri-bars 😉
Really, there are almost no junctions where you can't see either way before pulling out with a Long John configuration like this. It's shorter than the bonnet of many cars.

Yeah but it's a bike OK so it's different because.
Love the logic fails some days, I assume most people can't ever leave their street due to poor visibility.

You'd have thought they would have made an integrated basket/box/kids seat. Wouldn't want joe public ruining the aero profile...

See the other thread I started last night.
cargo bikes are brilliant. though putting 28mm roadie tyres on them somewhat ruins the utility.
Is it for the XXXL jiffybags at Sky?
It would be a worthy upgrade for this beast...
