I love love love my Bob. It means I can carry a lot more "stuff" around, the center of mass is MUCH lower for your cargo, those little wheels are MUCH stronger and are much better at handling the weight, weight that is NOT being carried by a (probably) heavily dished rear wheel....


I found the nature/vacuum sentiment accurate for all of about three days. Once you have ridden hills of any consequence, you will quickly find a good weight/usefullness balance and be able to appreciate the extra space for unexpected souvenirs, spare loaves of wheat bread, etc.

The surface of the bag is great for drying clothes and for keeping hella stinky things out of the way....

Trailer + good-sized handlebar bag = goodness.
