Thanks to TerraCycle, all those with recumbents can add an Xtracycle style kit called the "Cargo Monster."

I wasn't aware of them. Looking at their site it looks like they'll do a custom built xtracycle for a limited number of specific recumbent models; whereas, TerraCycle is selling a kit that a recumbent owner can install on a bike they already own. Angeltechcycles' bikes look sweet, but I suspect TerraCycle's kit will have more universal appeal.
