My previous Alfine worked pretty well. But the weight of a cargo bike when loaded takes quite a bit of force to get going, and I think this is where the Alfine suffers. At least that's been my experience with it.
Yeah I hear you, mid drive + cargo bike weight + less than mechanically sympathetic riders = minced internals.
