>>998835>so do you drape pigs over the top tubeThat's Vietnam. In modern China, people have trikes with a large tray on the back, the pig goes on there. It was probably just slung over the bar originally, legs hanging on each side and tied together or something.
I'll try to take a pic for /n/. Most shopping centres have a handful of old guys sitting around playing cards next to their cargo trikes. You hire them to take your fridge/pig/whatever home for you. Stores that sell bulky shit will usually have one on retainer and handle the delivery fee for you.
>>999383>>slick fat tires>for what purpose?Bling. It looks cooler than other bikes. It's only going to be ridden on roads anyway but those roads won't always be good. Fat slicks are probably a good solution if you're not looking to ride faster than 20kmh which nobody does on those things anyway.
>a pig on a bicycle is going to be a stressed out pigI want to make a joke about bike cops but I'll be bigger than that.
I'm pretty sure they meant a pig carcass. I guess the first top-bar is just for cargo support, the second provides the frame strength and completes the front triangle. It keeps the cargo weight from impacting on the triangle.
>>1000060>7 gear-inches with those wheelsI saw a guy in Shenzhen airport ride one of those from the gangway to the baggage carasel. It took me 15 minutes to walk, it probably took him about 1 minute to ride. It would be kind of cool on a uni campus or something, many of them are really big in China and you can zip around in no time. It would be most useful indoors I think. China has some very big buildings.
I've seen electric versions on the street though, those go a steady 15-20kmh I guess.
>>1002218>Folding electric bikeI haven't seen that exact model but the concept is very common in China, there are lots. Most people don't actually use the folding feature but there are still plenty of them around. I'm sure you could find one on aliexpress.
