(Although in all honesty, wouldn't that go under "Commuter", unless the idea is to boost/highlight Cargo Bikes as a THING?)
Edit - answering my own question, possibly not. Difference between cargo bike for families ( Family & Kids group) and Cargo Bike for Cargo such as a Business thing.
Intent on Cycling Commuting on a budget, but keep on breaking/crashing/finding nice stuff to buy.

They're big in my city. Literally and figuratively. And ******* expensive.
Yeah but a forum for them, how many posts will it get? I reckon you should REALLY go for the niche market, maybe a unicycle cargo forum for gay black disabled Marxist dwarfs?
I should add not only do we have none where I live, I must confess at first I wasn't sure what was being referred to and had to google to find out. #livingashelteredlife

An excellent example of why supporting such a niche market and raising awareness of it, especially in light of the climate crisis and the ULEZ is beneficial.
I'd love bike radar to have an article on Cargobikes - and will even lend mine for them to test

agree completely - the more the merrier and as its a growing area of cycling we can't see why not.
Yep - esp with the electric versions getting a little more affortable.

That's very affordable to some on here. You could probably save that on tax with the help of one poster on here.
I did only say " A little more affordable" . Still, when compared to the price of a car, let alone an electric car over a year, it almost certainly pays for itself.
Especially if you're lucky enough to be working somewhere where you can buy them pre-tax under a Cycle to Work scheme or similar...

I think cargo bikes are useful. My Nihola has PowerTap pedals with flywheel’s clip adaptors — that way I can monitor my power output to ensure I’m not relying too much on the electric assistance!
The cargo bike forum is keen on player safety and consideration of those around them. I am specifically aware of the classic motorcycle helmets as being of great importance in head injury safety.

Even the small bridge over the local river has me searching behind the sofa for the extra £1000 to make it pedelec.

I know Scotland's Energy Trust does such grants[1] - Shirley's in NZ I believe, not sure what the grant systems are like over there.
[1] it's actually a loan : https://www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/sc ... ebike-loan

The grants are for businesses who want to buy one. My wife works for a small business up here so I think she may ask the owner to buy one.
