  • Anyone got experience with Gaya e-cargo/kid carriers?

    Looking for a 1 kid suitable bike to share with my wife. Assuming Tern/Benno is out of budget, what else should I be looking at? Mycle? Radwagon? Btwin?
    Will we regret not getting a high-end one over the long-term?

  • Seen plenty of radwagons, apart from the size and weight (they are biggest of the long tails I've seen so far), for £2k or whatever they cost really they are pretty decent. the stock mechanical brakes aren't awesome, but less than £100 to put a set of tektro hydraulics on it. Not fancy but also not junk.

    Be wary of a lot of 'new comers' to the market have glossy websites but the bikes are pretty pap.

    Radwagon has a weird tyre size. Main reason tyres were failing was due to cheap rubber band type spoke hole protection/rim tape, that TBH more than half of all bikes use. At least they stumped up and made the effort to get new tyres made, shipped to customers and did something about the problem. Many of these newcomer start up's will just fold and leave the customers and dealers hanging.
