Yeah, it's not going to be a thing of beauty. You want the back end to be low end gas pipe steel, and the new stuff I used was just basic mild steel from bandq.
You wouldn't make a bike frame out of this stuff, cos you'd just buy a cheap bike instead. The thing is, there are no cheap cargo bike frames, so diy ING it makes more sense.
I litterarly have no metal work experience, but generally like making things, and managed to build this one without too much trouble. It's now my proudest possession!
