  • regarding child carriers, just got one of these infant carriers for the Bullitt. It is only 11 inches wide leaving tons of room for the older child in the 23 inch wide truck strap cargo box I use (Holde from Splendid Cycles).

    I built a removable base from wood for the seat that fixes to the floor of the box with one bolt/wing-nut. The seat drops on the base and is fixed with a velcro strap. It all can be removed as one unit by undoing the wing-nut. It wasn't easy to rig up and had it not been for some luck and a stroke of genius it may have not turned out so well. It's not pretty - almost a prototype. I could easily re-do with greater care now that I've worked out the kinks, but I doubt I will since this works fine and I've got other crap to do.

    I'll post pictures later of the set up.

  • Melia actually makes all kinds of different straps and attachments for an array of different cargo bikes to fit their seats in. I just strapped ours onto the Bullit seat with some lashing straps and check on them every other week or so.

    The Melia website is mainly in dutch, and also a bit crappy. Hollandbikeshop has all their products, pdf manuals in english and the info you need.
