  • Hi all,
    I’m new to cargo bikes but I think I’d like one for hauling kids/stuff around. I’ve been thinking of the eBullitt (I live in Brighton so electric would be handy) Is this a good choice - or should I be looking at something else?

  • Bullits are awesome to ride. eBullit would be a great choice I bet. Maybe test ride one and see if you like it?

  • For people moving- the old Dutch kind are amazing. Much less twitchy than the Bullitt.
    Can get e-bike versions as well.

  • We've had a Bullitt for two years now, we love it. Had to get a kids seat on the back now though as our two has outgrown the front cargo space. I'm planning to widen it to fit both again, but for now this works well

  • eBullitt all the way! Though I would sell that as we sell them lol.

    Other bikes to look at are the Omnium (handles more like a normal bike), UrbanArrow (handles more like a house), R+M packster 60 or 80cm (easier to set off, but much twitchier at speed, also heavier) and then there are a few smaller production variants (a really nice Swiss made Ti framed beast floating about, price of those is around £10k though). Closest competitor is the Douze in terms of handling, capacity, price and weight. Suggest riding at least the Omnium and the Douze along side the Bullitt before pulling the trigger, they are all around the £4-5k mark.

    Rhino bike boxes of Berlin are making a two seat (side by side) arrangement for the Bullitt with proper belts/harnesses, it overhangs the sides by around 7cm IIRC which is less than the bars and puts it in line with the width of a Bakfiets.nl box.
