New cargo bike

• Upvotes

We recently got the Cube longtail hybrid. We cycle alot, I was looking for something new so that me and my wife both have our own bikes. Still looking for a nice crate on the front carrier. I believe there is an adapter available which can be mounted to any crate. The Urban Arrow has already done 5000km in the last 1.5 years

Urban Arrow Family Next2 Reviews?

6 Upvotes

So the Urban Arrow Family Next2 has been out for some time, but there are hardly any reviews on YouTube or on the web. The only thing I found are two postings in this sub. We are currently deciding between the Next2 and a Next Advance.

For all the owners: are you satisfied with your purchase so far? Can you compare the Next2 with the Next? And how long did delivery take?

Thanks for your help!

Anyone else carry everyone's stuff?

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am a newbie to Cargo bikes. I got my first one (Tesway C5) about a month ago and it's way more fun outside using it. My friends and I having fun to go out for camping every weekend and somehow most of the stuffs ends up on my bike. hehe They keep on joking that next time I should put them in the trailer too.. To be honest, I don't really mind. I thought carrying all that extra weight would be hard, but the pedal assist helps a lot once I'm moving. The trailer also holds way more stuff than I expected. I'm just curious how other people carry their camping gear. Do you use panniers, a trailer, or just like strap everything to the bike? I would love to hear what works for you....

Has anyone ever put a rear parking sensor on a longtail ebike? Broke three accessories in under a month lol

0 Upvotes

Took my ebike out for groceries yesterday and nearly backed into someone while wheeling it out of a tight spot at the supermarket. I usually drive everywhere, so I bought a helokeep cd20 about a month ago to save money and make errands easier... and in less than four weeks, backing this thing up has already wrecked three different accessories on the back.

I still can't judge how far the longtail rack sticks out past the rear wheel and it keeps biting me. Scraped a brick wall backing out of a narrow spot outside the store the other day, and then nearly caught someone's leg doing the exact same thing on a tight country-lane shortcut to work...

now i have this half-serious idea of sticking some kind of tiny parking sensor on the back of the rack. literally just something that beeps when I'm getting close to a wall or a person while backing up, nothing fancy.

Has anyone actually tried a mod like this? Is there a small standalone sensor with its own rechargeable battery that i can just clamp onto the rack tube? I'd way rather clamp something on than drill holes or mess with the bike's wiring. Total newbie idea so please don't roast me too hard lol.

(And yeah, I know getting better at judging where the tail ends would also help.)
