Reply by @KralikLj: Hell boy that would fit in a bicycle. Way more carbon free than that wankpanzer. (image of cargo bicycle with several bags of soil strapped to the front)
I mean I'm all for making fun of truck owners but in this case it's just straight up not a good comparison. The bicycle is carrying half the number of bags...
Also: distance, hills, etc.
That bike is a better solution for a lot of people, but let's not pretend it's a practical one for everyone.
LOL, my son and I both drive hatchback Mazda 3's. My son had to drive to a customers site because the boxes were too tall to fit in a truck like this. And I just went to Lowes for mulch and stuff and put 7 bags of mulch, 4 bags of dirt, and 1 bag of compost in the back with my seats down without going over my weight limit. But I did similar in my Saturn Aura 4 door with fold down back seats. I only drove a truck when I needed to tow a boat. When the boat went so did the truck
Where can I get a wheelbarrow bike like that? That actually looks cool..
They are called Cargo Bikes and they come in many forms. This is one of them. Another has a bucket front, and the most common third one involves a big T R U N K that can hold kids, or cargo.
Beware if you're used to what Bikes cost at Walmart - you're in for sticker shock.
I wanted to get the kind that had the trunk for taking my kids on bike rides but they start at 2 grand. I ain't got that kinda money for a nice-thing-to-do.
Oof... Well thanks anyway 😅
That particular frame is made by Larry Vs. Harry, called the Bullitt bike, or eBullitt for the electric version. If in the US you may need to do a bit of digging on and offline to find a distributor.
They’re called “bakfiet” or “longjohn” cargo bikes. Similar bikes are made by Urban Arrow, R&M, Bakfiet.nl, and others that aren’t top of mind for me at the moment
One drove by us at the end of a hike yesterday and I literally thought.. "what the fuck is.. oh - oh wait is that their.. ugh, oh no. Fuck this- fuck this guy driving. Hey buddy you look like a jackass fuck your Nazi CEO funding bullshit pedestrian murdering truck."
That’s one ugly sybertruck of bicycles
