[image] My hometown has some nice rentable cargo bikes
I would love to see it in more cities/countries, because I use it very often. I don't have the money to buy one for myself so the best that happend was that the city decided a few years ago to make stations where you can rent these bikes for a short shopping trip or to some nice place. They aren't even really expensive too.

Seems like an odd choice to have the cargo in front instead of in back - are they awkward to steer?
I was surpised when I tried the first time but no, they are not awkward to steer ! It drives like a normal bike. It also feels safer to see exactly where you are puting the box with your children in it.
This is a bicarrier though (one wheel at the front). Tricarriers (two wheels at the front) don't drive like a bike AT ALL !
Incredibly they are pretty good to steer. I thougt the same first time I tried them. Some of them also have little seats for children to sit in, I assume that is why its in the front. But I clearly did like to see my groceries while driving.
Pretty cool to hear. I can see straps that I think are meant to be seatbelts. Are they a common sight in town or do they not get as much use as they deserve?
I see them pretty often, more often I see the rentable normal bikes tho (:
