Bikes: single speed Krampus, burley piccolo, salsa mukluk ti, CETMA cargo bike, M5 Shockproof,

FWIW I ride a cargo bike that I regularly carry 300 pounds plus 180 pounds of me on. I have 32 14/15/14 spokes on the wheel and I don't start breaking them until I try to carry 350 pounds. A well-built, evenly tensioned wheel will carry a huge load.
