Cargo Bikes

Stumbled on this earlier in the week. Has a few types of cargo bikes I'd not seen.

451 as far as I know? Has it changed at all. Mine is a used one.

At the back whatevers in the shed. Which ATM is a gravel king 35c but will change when it does.

451 (which for some reason Jumbo keeps putting on full builds) doesn't have many tyre choices.
Most people get a hub built on a normal 406 bmx rim which has loads to choose from

What tyre size can I shoehorn into the rear with 650b? Or is the lack of google search results for Omnium 650b subtly telling there is a reason not to do it...

I wouldn't bother. I did and couldn't fit a much bigger tyre than the 700c 38mm I was using before and was getting pedal strikes all over the place: not much fun. Went back to 700c.

What @laner said. When I got mine direct (sans wheels) Jumbo told me he contacted Schwalbe about an urban 451 tyre but the quantities required were too big.
The Arisun XLR8 is only one I know of which is a bit fatter, otherwise there's a Kenda and the Schwalbe Shredda. Get @broken_777 to build you a 406 on a BMX rim.

.?

confusing myself. changing the rim I'm getting my wheel built on hopefully. Then what tire do I get?

One-One has Vittoria Randonneurs in 1.5" for £3.99.

I have an aversion to giving money to planet x.

But £3.99

wait is that a front tire? That's what I need at the mo

Yes.

I'm getting one even if it's just a spare.

ah cheers mate. will do.

inner tubes at 99p too

grab me one as well if you want to share postage?

Sure, I'll order a few. Tire or tube or both?

Buy it Bamey

That's mad cheap, 5 years old or not these bikes generally dont loose much value. A new battery is about 500£ but they do last a lot of cycles if even vaguely looked after

Thanks for the info, 700 it will be then.

I assume the key for non jittery ride is using 406 front?

Anyone help with info on attaching a trailer to an Urban Arrow? Also where I can get axles etc to make a trailer?

What brand/type of trailer?

We have one at the shop that has some sort of extension on the axle of I believe a Nuvinci hub that facilitate a trailer. I'll check when I'm on tomorrow.

Don't have anything yet. Looking at UrbanArrow xl or XXL.

I would only need a trailer occasionally. It would need to accommodate a 3-stage mobile platform so quite sizeable.
