I’m a recent Omnium user, and found that where and how you load the bike makes a huge difference to the handling. The further back towards the headline the better; the further forward especially over and in front of the rear wheel makes it very wobbly and shimmy all over the shop. With a large wriggling dog it may be tricky to keep the loading in a good position that doesn’t affect handling constantly.

I'm semi seriously considering buying a cargo bike of my own. The main use case will be lugging my 30kg dog about and as a general run around. How does the Omnium handle with the weight that high up? My current thinking is that the low centre of gravity on something like a Bullitt might be a better bet with a big, wriggling dog. The appeal of the Omnium is the ability to stand or on it's end to take up less room in the house. Anything else to consider?
