Hello! The rising cost of petrol, carbon emissions, tax and insurance…these are just some of the reasons why owning a car may not appeal to everyone. Likew…
Also called a velomobile.
Imagine going up-hill in this bad boy. The workout is gonna be intense.
Imagine how easy a road bike would be once you got acclimated to pedaling one of these chonkers around though.
So cool but I can only imagine the local brodozers raging if I used it on the road and the Karens going crazy if I used it on the footpath.
i wonder how well these would fare in a crash with the average newer american sized suv’s and pickup trucks.
Not well at all, but they might help avoid a crash in some places what being extra visible is valuable.
Why not just a bakfiets?
- This has a roof.
- The balance isn’t godawful like a bakfiets. (Hopefully)
git gud :p
Different use cases, the cargo bike is to haul cargo and kids around.
A velomobile is better suited to travel long distances, specially in bad weather.
Carbikes, like the ones in the video, can be used for both. I’ve seen plenty of cargo carbikes used by businesses and delivery couriers.
That makes sense, thanks!
The one on the picture though, it’s just crazily ineffective use of space. That’s already half of why cars are so terrible on cities
That’s just the attention grabbing thumbnail, it’s a one-off project by some random guy who did it for fun.
All the other carbikes shown in the video are actually super nice and useful
I might get one
