My wife has had a Yuba Boda Boda for about four years, and she really likes it. It's aluminum, so it's surprisingly light, and it doesn't extend as far back as a full cargo bike. I don't know how much they cost now, but back then it was just over a thousand dollars.

I like it because I can mostly carry what I need and make good time (20-30min). The route is 95% paved, however in the future I'll be riding miles of gravel and paved roads. Does anybody know of a quality, durable, comfortable-for-long distance light cargobike? The Pashley Pronto workbike is in the style that I like- thicker wheels, front and rear racks...only it seems designed more for urban, smaller commutes. Something inbetween a cargo and a race bike is what I'm looking for.
