A generic Bakfiets style cargo frame with some custom disc brake BMX forks.
It’s pretty rough and ready but it’s been absolutely amazing for life with my baby daughter, she sleeps really well in it, points at dogs and it has generally meant we’ve been really mobile.
The rear hub is pretty annoying, it tends to skip a bit in various gears. I’ve just found a gear that doesn’t skip and I leave it in that. The hub rear brake is verging on non-existent, thankfully the front is great.
The bearings in the DMR flats have seen better days and it has various surface rust.
The tire clearance with 27.5/2.1 at the back is really good with the frame, but is ridiculously close to the mudguard bracket. If it was me I’d probably go 26” at the back if replacing the rear wheel.
£350 please. Collection from Margate, first dibs is original owner @platypus
