Returning this thread to life! Everyone has given reasons for and against cargo bikes, but let's say I've already decided I do want one and that touring is one of the activities i'll use it for. I would like to steer this conversation to ask: LHT + Free radical or Big Dummy? The LHT + free radical setup is evidently more versatile, but does it really hold up to the task? Won't it bend your chainstay bridge over long routes? Wont it break? Any experiences on that?
