it's slightly more clumsy and less manouverable on slow speed due to front wheel turning a bit less
adjustable surely?
MCamb-
Is it? There is a hard stop for the steering, I'll have to look into this a bit and check if it could be adjusted to allow turning the wheel more.
I managed to fix the electrics. The battery connector had seen some heat and one of the pins didn't have a proper contact. I cleaned the melted plastic off and the bike started working. I'll change the connector as new ones are available from Aliexpress for a few euros.
Previous owner had extended the front light wires in a somewhat non-professional manner, I'm suspecting this might be the reason for electrics failing in the first place. I bought the bike suspecting it might need a new battery as he didn't disclose this to me, but don't really feel that bad as the fix is significantly cheaper.
I haven't familiarized myself yet with steering properties of cargo bikes really. Compared to this, our long Bakfiets feels really stable and easy to ride even one handed, with this I'm nervous to take a hand of the handlebar for signaling. Might this be partly because there's more weight on the handlebar as the riding position is less upright? Turning the stem around to positive angle helped a bit, I'm thinking of getting a wider handlebar or something with a bit more angle compared to the narrow'ish flat bar.

I bought this one last week, it's a GZR Cargo On-e branded bike bought from a Finnish online store. Feels and looks like it's barely used, I doubt it has more than 500 km's on the clock. Problem is the damn thing is dead, battery charges but system doesn't turn on. I'll try to start troubleshooting this next week.
Feels like a solid bike, altough as typical for a bike sold in a box, most screws for mudguards etc. are loose. Surprisingly compared to our long Bakfiets it's slightly more clumsy and less manouverable on slow speed due to front wheel turning a bit less.
