Thanks for your comment Steven. Consider supporting our feature length doc, LESS CAR MORE GO: www.kickstarter.com/projects/1887563980/less-car-more-go-the-cargo-bike-documentary
Guys before their time, innovative, Cargo bikes what a great way to simplify your life. You don't have to kill the family car, just step off in a new direction, reduce reliance on the car, there is so much you can do on a cargo bike in your home town and a great way to cycle camp.
I really do wish the American infrastructure would allow for a more bicycle friendly environment.I was just amazed one night watching House hunters international and the town this couple was thinking of moving to only allowed bicycles.
+mavspecialgirl1 It used to be that way. Sense cars came along, the car drivers think the roads are only for them. Bikes was around long before cars. Now their egos dont want to share with the bike riders. We must go fast all the time, get out of our way. And they have the nerve to call the bike riders assholes. I think its the other way around. You can be riding your bike on the side walk and they will get out of their cars and try and fight you. I have had it happen. Car people just hate bike riders now days. I have been sprayed with who knows what, yelled many things at me. Like bike riders are nerds to be bullied. The school bullies are now the car drivers hating on bike riders.
+Jojo Gun Fang Recently fiancee got hit in the back with a pellet gun while riding his bicycle.Yes I've had some close calls,most by assholes talking on their cell phones.
Jojo Crazy Cat bike riders are generally entitled assholes and always will loose remember that when arguing with a 2 ton car. A lot of good it does you when they scrape you off the pavement. You can argue your point from the morgue
I've been trying to build the same concept, though with a mountain bike in-mind ...that was when I was a teenager. I'm now 39 y.o. and I've been attempting the same when it comes to mopeds :)
There are people on here moaning about the man who whispers. We have a customer who comes in the shop where I work. He whispers. He has throat cancer. Yes, cancer is annoying, isn't it?
No need to get snarky. A person whispering without apparent need is odd, and for people to wonder about that is not so strange. Either it is explained or people will speculate.
Actually Gary I'm hoping to capture a bit of the impact of bikeshare in LESS CAR MORE GO. The SF bay Area's CityCarShare is going to add 22 electric cargo bikes to its bikeshare program in the Spring 2014! I plan to capture the story and perhaps use it as an ending to the doc. Pretty cool stuff...
Holy crap, today is the 5th, and I find out there's a free screening near me on the 8th. I'll will try my best to make time to cycle the 20+ miles to go see it!
When riding a bike in America, you must face this reality: Welcome to the Jungle. Total hostility toward the bike and pedestrians. Live in a cage, drive a cage.
I biked in the 1980’s to late 1990’s in Silicon Valley and mountain areas around it and the only hostile people I ever ran into on the road was other rude cyclist. Cyclist are the most self entitled spoiled brats u have seen. Always challenging cars and trucks. I always laugh because a car will always win that argument. You can’t be right all the way to the morgue when they scrape you off the pavement in a bloody sack of meat parts. Cyclist are the biggest arrogant turds I have seen
I‘m a cyclist, but riding on the street you are an obstacle and slowing down traffic - there is no gain in „sustainability“ if you are slowing down 5 cars behind you to 20 km/h.
It's interesting how cargo bikes of all shapes and sizes were in use all over the world long before the so called 'American cargo bikes' were thought of....
I found this while trying to find a bike trailer that can haul extra bikes. I frequently want to pick my kids up from places and gave them ride there bike home but I need a way to bike their bike to them.
i prefer a bike that i can carry my stuff. Would help people with no Bus or Taxi around. i used to live way out in the sticks as they say. Only way to get anyplace, you had to have a machine to get your stuff, or even go too work for money. No side walks. so the best thing for a poor person would be a bike with some type of gear carry ability. I just always used racks that i would find in a store. And hope it would fit. Many times they dont fit all bikes. Its probably best to look for a bike that comes with racks.I thought about getting a two seater bike and adding a rack on the back seat post. I would say im above average bike rider. I knew bike racers who thought they could out ride me. But im a long time and hard rider. So my legs are used to riding long amounts of time. So they would puff out of energy after a hard ride a block or two. I can ride 50 miles hard riding. But i do prefer long relaxed rides with my gear. Like hiking on a bike :) I just love the ride. Im also a motorcycle rider. I do the same on my motorcycles. My gear and my ride.
No one cars and yes you are poor so you have to try and prove your better Schlep then the guy with the more expensive bike. You still work minion wages so save it.
just keep in mind that your 'poormans' bike works day in day out. Theirs need to go to the shop every week for repairs and need to be cleaned every day
My new "extended" cargo bike is great , but I find that with a real heavy load (maybe 150 LBS or even more) the bike seems squirrely or unstable - When I see videos of people riding these bikes with all kinds of loads , I wonder if my own experience is somehow unique !
+Alan Scott I was just wondering how they would fit in a car or SUV to take on a trip. Its hard for me to fit my mountain bikes in my SUV. I also worry about getting them stolen. I have 3 locks, but all locks are easy to cut. Yeah i would not want a bike that is wobbly. Specially if i was riding long distance.
Pedego 101 Electric Bikes a normal Electric drive will take the average "cyclist" about 10 -12 miles (yes?). I don't see it taking a bike, plus trailer very far at all, for very long. so you will have to spend mega dollars to carry extra batteries. only to still be stuck in a long stretch somewhere with no "outlets" to recharge. A 2-stroke can take the average cyclist 80 -100 miles........ so "with trailer" I see at least 50 miles....... and it is "cheaper" to carry 1 - 2 gal (maybe even 5 gal) of fuel in the trailer with the other supplies
NinjaViking1 Many electric motors go 40-50 miles and that's plenty for most people who are commuting or running errands. Sounds like you are talking about touring and I don't have much experience with that.
I am having the same problems and ideas. I had to sell my car because of loosing my job because of a motorcycle injurie to my arm witch I am soon to have fixed in February with more surgery removing bone and a screw. I was debating useing the trailer I used to drag my kids around and bording it out so I can collect fire wood/ fallen trees. but the tracks are single or there are bars to onley alow bikes.
I don’t know, I can’t see this become a thing here in Denmark, but could be interesting to try. But after riding bikes since I was 3 years old, ridding in traffic before I turned 5 and own a Christiana bike, mtb and track bike and have ridden most bike created. I really can’t see the benefit in, a big load in the back. Maybe if you ride on small tracks, but stil still in my eyes you can almost do the same on a normal bike!? But a normal bike is more movable, because of short wheelbase.
This was great and it really gave me a rush to see groovy people getting high on life and bikes - and possibly other things but I can let that slide - I came back to bikes after 14?15 years absence? But it was the idea of no rushing to get somewhere to camp just get there and enjoy the journey which was sparked off by talking to a guy on the train going to work on his bike and i felt shame I had a bike doing nothing except the odd ride at a weekend when it wasn't raining. Yes, I admit to being a weather wuss when it comes to freezing rain in my face or stinging my legs and arms. But when you get passed that, when you don't care because you as a fat middle aged man just got up a huge hill and can barely breath feel so much better, you think - I know what I’m going to do now. now I've got two bikes and a trailer, I am buying another and ride regularly but need more as I am going to ride a weekend covering 147 miles to see rellies. When i get better, from here - Colne Lancashire to wherever by bike. 8 months in the saddle is on my mind, per year.
Just buy a cheap PRC made mountain bike from Big5. I got mine on sale for $99; a Kent Shockwave, not bad, it's got a frame strong enough for a gorilla. Then modify it any way you want. I made my own rear carrier from scrap material I found around the yard.
This thing may change the world.. instead using gasoline Why dont we use our feet?? Less polution save earth and live a very simple and happy life.. I saw this in my dream bicycle will be useful than machines that eats gasoline and diesel Keep it up..
In my opinion when ya got a piece of shit to advertise, flash the pictures fast, zoom in or out a lot, talk about non specifics and don't let anyone read anything. I think this qualifies
I hope we learn to live sustainably at some point. It seems like we are trying to move mountains. It's hard to stay motivated sometimes, but I suppose we must.
True , not only that but are a way of life now. The world economy depends on road and car building. And oil to fuel it . Even more sickening is it depends on war to fuel production of products for sale in the war business. Yes business. Sickening and disgusting .. if you think I am exaggerating, let's see you or the world get out of cars for a year..
Good video but you don't need a bike like that to haul things (and I see no mention of stronger/thicker spokes which is the REAL ISSUE when it comes to hauling more weight. I know this from first hand experience. They will break.) I built my own hauler from an old schwinn cruiser step thru frame. Got on bikeman4u.com and ordered an extra heavy duty rear wheel with coaster brake (11 gauge spokes!) and the biggest rear baskets they sell plus a pletscher double kickstand so I can load groceries w/o it falling over. Best money I ever spent.
What the fuck is up with the guy who is speaking but we can't hear or understand what the hell he is saying. Sometimes the answer is to pass on a project. Come on!
I love the idea that you work for the world development and train people who are from developing countries. You are awesome!
Thanks to this passionate people we have options.
ever since I was a kid I hated cars, I had a massive problem with car sickness when I was young combined with the smells it was just over stimulating. when I first heard about ebikes I was like: I'll just use that. I also saw how people lived in the suburbs and thought: When I buy a house I should just make that a business, and then I'll be the most successful shop in town. years later I still believe in that, and having learned about zoning laws, minimum parking, and the lobbying and manipulation of housing and transit, has confirmed what I knew.

Good vid. Cargo/utility bikes should be sold everywhere.
Or even a cargo type trailer for a bicycle. The majority of the ones for sale are to haul kids, and wouldn't hold up to hauling cargo.
That was awesome, Liz! Looking forward to the full feature.
i never had such a longtail
but cycling is a great source of happyness
Love this video of families having fun and getting exercise while going wherever to do their daily chores!
I'm building a Kona up and adding the xtracycle soon! I really liked this bit.
Love it! It would be great to see people rocking these around North American cities as an alternative to cars.
What a great american story - is there goig to be another installment? This was a great story to watch! Really good video also!

Parabéns sua história 👏👏👏
a soulfood buffet - can't wait wait to see more =)
we need this with PAS in the central Alleghenies Ridge and Valley region of Pennsylvania.
I know the feeling when im surrounded with people who ride high end bikes and i ride a poormans bike while waiting for the light to go green
just keep in mind that your 'poormans' bike works day in day out. Theirs need to go to the shop every week for repairs and need to be cleaned every day
People who own high end bikes worry about them being stolen.Better to buy an old bike and make it healthy,who cares if the paint work is in a bad way?
what is the song at 4:30?
very cool some days i have to pick up my daughter from school on my bike and roll her biker struggle all the way to school
When did Surly get involved...?
What`s a normal Bike?
If you are interested in cargo bikes, check out a new model from Pelican-bike, in Denmark.
Liz,,,bike share is really making an impact for bicycling in many cities. that would be a new film project for you?
Hey Liz. Are you on Kickstarter with this ? Can I help ? I have a Trek Transport so I think I can relate.
Nothing free in the Land of the Free. Pure, raw capitalism.
que historias, me gusta el entusiasmo y placer con que hace las cosas, dar solución a la gente desde ese lugar de gusto
I love it!
is this film available to view somewhere?

There's no other way to put it- the Big Dummy changed my life. And it's because of Xtracycle and Ross Evans and the good folks at Surly.
so how do these work how do these work with a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke engine mounted?
NinjaViking1 Most people are using electric motors -- better for the environment, quieter, no bad odors, less vibration and less weight.

If The XTRA CYCLE will fit on the back of a Car America is ready!
Don't mean to be negative, but these are all over Holland. Have been for decades
Mostly Bakfiets (I have one, not common in the USA)

whats the point?
Bikes are saving millions of gallons of gas a day.
The Dutch started it all, quite a while back...
Kinda seems like everyone hated InterBike.
pass the torch to me i got this
I'd much rather have a proper Bakfiets. More cargo space and you can keep an eye on what you have.
This thing may change the world.. instead using gasoline
Why dont we use our feet??
Less polution save earth and live a very simple and happy life..
I saw this in my dream bicycle will be useful than machines that eats gasoline and diesel
Keep it up..
Guys, why do you need a vegetable oil fuelled bus to go around? Take your cargo bikes! Be free!
I always have 200 pounds on my normal bike
Maybe loose some weight?
I like the concept, but the jump cuts, jittery cam, and shaky cam ruin the video. . . had to stop watching it.
Too complicated. Here we just use a regular bike and add a side car. Cargo and passenger use.
The best cargo bike for me is the nihola brand,you do not need to balance your bike anymore.
ps there were no fat Japanese like I am in Japan in the 1960's unless they were sumo...
We will make this bike utopia happen somewhere in the world. Then the situation will be reversed and the car will better watch out.
LOL drama queens, it's just another cargo bike :)
but keep it on...
