I didn't want to buy an Urban Arrow cargo bike, but I did...

In the UK, I purchased a Riese & Müller Load 60 and sold my car, I also have a Riese & Müller Nevo for everyday use. Urban Arrow have some great child transport options, seats, covers, child seat adapters etc.

Love this walk through!

This typeof bike turns commuting with a kid into quality time. Best investment ever.

I love these videos! And always enthusiastic about Excel sheets : ) Looking forward to following you all on your journey. If your husband is taller, I’ll be curious to learn how comfortable he is with the bike (at 6’3’’ I’ve found many cargo bikes too low/small for comfort). Currently have a regular bike with a child seat for the younger kid and a trailer for the older one, but we’re at the limit, and I’m preparing to choose a cargo bike to carry both.

I enjoyed your video. Nicely edited and a great clear story of how you came to own your new Urban Arrow. Good luck and I hope you have many safe and fun years with it. I'm looking in from Ireland currently waiting on delivery next month of my first e-bike which is going to be an all round general purpose commuter workhorse, a Cube Kathmandu. I don't have fun sized little people to transport so I couldn't justify the cost of a bakfiets type bike for myself no matter how much fun it may be. I've been using large trailers with my ordinary hybrid bike for a few years now and because I only need to use one of them about every one in five rides it works out fine for me. A €600 hybrid bicycle plus a €131 trailer gives me almost the capacity of a €6,000 cargo bike and a real world practical alternative to a car. Have fun and stay safe.

Welcome to the cargo bike tribe, I am curios how your experience will be. To be honest the 3 wheeled one is a lot more unwieldy and I managed to flip mine (when empty) a couple of times.
