  • Is anyone a CAD wizard and would like to help me out?

    Phillip on the cargobikeforum made this excellent box design and gave the plans to anyone who wants to get it made themselves.

    I'd like to modify it slightly so that it could be more like this Holde box from splendid cycles: https://www.splendidcycles.com/products/bullitt-accessories

    I need to modify Phillip's CAD file to include some slots for the ratchet strap to hold it together like the Holde box. So that you can quickly remove the sides and use the flat area of the cargo bike for big loads.

    Can anyone do that for me?
    The CAD files are here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1FPC1mH-Rbvi3E82x7RyDxFp4XDILlzBm?usp=sharing

    I was thinking about getting it made out of HDPE sheet by a manufacturer in the UK, called Sentinel plastics, (who are great, we've used them to make bike polo mallet heads )

    Would anyone else be interested in going in on this? It would be cheaper if we did a bulk order.

  • I have the holde box and although it is perfect on the user end, I never understood why they routed the truck straps inside the panels. I simply leave mine on the outside and it works perfectly. Might simplify your endeavor. You can catch a glimpse of what im getting at in the background of this picture of a faulty tire.

  • Interesting!!

    Can you post another pic? Where does the ratchet strap route around the backboard?
