That might make more sense than buying a Rivian or a Tesla. But IMO, these cargo bikes only make sense for those who want to live alone in an urban or suburban area. Innawoods? You share the road with truckers and soccer moms going 55mph. And they don't like doing that when your e-bike maxes out at 20. Or having their taxes raised to build sidewalks/bike paths.

Yeah, I could see how these could work in countries where everyone is either white or Japanese.

You know you'll look like a gigantic fag riding that fucking frankenbike, right?
What kind of a fool do you have to be to pay for a BSO like this?

at this rate why don't you just buy a fucking motorcycle? Get an Adventure bike or even a crooser, would be an investment compared to this.

I'm all for people riding bikes and using cars less, but I do think there's a natural limit to what's smart to put on 2 wheels if it's not going to be counted as an automobile/motorcycle. Bakfiets are right at the edge of that limit. Massively overbuilt, motorized bakfiets are over the line.

why?
they're ubiquitous and successful in NL
you don't hear the dutch complain about how they're a menace on shared infrastructure, just that they're dorky.
seeing as the use case is taking your young kids to school, there's already an effective limiter on how obnoxiously people ride them.

And if you include repair costs, taxes and insurance, you'd have to repeat your expenses annually. So the point your making is that owning a used-up low end shitbox is like buying a brand new top end bike every single year.

The rich, flat, small, densely-populated, highly-educated, high-trust, and very white country?
Yeah, I could see how in such an environment you could leave a $10,000 object which fits in a truck bed outside a store unattended for 40 minutes.

I owned a toyota yaris for 4 years, bought it for 2k and NOTHING broke. Oil changes every 30-40k km's where literally all i did. Insurance and tax was 600€ anually, and around 1600€ for gas.
Thats driving a car with all expenses for 4 years for a measily 11k~€.

I'll take the car anytime instead of a boutique grocery getter as a daily driver.
Take your shitty bike to the next ikea 50km away in the nasty months of the year after an 8h workday in the evening at 4°C and rain.
This shit is only good for rich moms who dont work and want to flex once a week on the other moms at the kindergarden.

Yeah, if you want to actually accomplish daily tasks there's still a reason to buy something which can cruise at 80 and carry 7 people.
Stop spamming the board with this fucking dogshit. Post a retarded youtube comment instead you cretin.

600lb cargo...if you never, ever have to stop. That looked so sketchy.

The ca go bike is not a replacement for a true EV if you do a lot of driving over long distances for work.
For urbanites, it's fine. But still not a total replacement for "all cars." I am ditching the second car with my gf, (so that we have one car and bikes.) In that instance, yeah, I'd get one of these instead of a second car.

why would it be so different? You could get a sidecar and put kids in that along with groceries and whatever else. Plus you can reach freeway speeds and still mog cagies
