Designer Chengli Hung's cargo bike concept is a two-wheeled attempt at "all things to all people". It's a cargo hauling scooter that can transform into a sort of sport bike by simply swapping or adding components. The bike is describe by the designer as:
...a small scooter but have a large integrated storage area and an optional storage compartment in the mid-section of the scooter. The flexible steering handlebar allows the scooter to transform into a more potent motorbike for higher speeds which improves the aerodynamics of this vehicle and brings more pleasure of riding.
Interesting idea! I've always liked the cargo scooter and in fact, this isn't the first one to show up on
Tuvie. I'm also a big fan of the cargo
Microcar. I have to wonder if Aprilia ever sold any of their
Cargobikes, which was really nothing more than a SportCity with a large storage compartment where the step-through once was. Not taking anything away from it! I'd like to see that kit available here in the USA! *writes email to Cargobike*
Oh, and... it's really too bad we won't ever see any
Honda Cargo Gyro's or new
Bajaj Vans here. Well, not so much "too bad" as "it really pisses me off". *climbs on soapbox* STOP the auto lobbyists from blocking the acceptance of micro work vehicles on American roads! *steps off soapbox* At least I think (hope) you can still get Peirspeed's
Pizza scooter.
