Cargo Bikes

Yeah, when the carrier is frame mounted, it remains stationary as the bars turn, therefore you cannot have anything that is at the same height or higher than the bars otherwise you will not be able to turn the bars & will crash badly!

Frame-mounted carriers are way more stable than h/bar mounted, however.

Been thinking about this. My Mundo (still waiting on new drop-out adaptors to be machined. Been otherwise finished for a month :( ) has frame braze-ons for a serious front rack. But with my lowish stack height, is it really that usable?

I have two kids on the back, one of which in a full child seat. So not much room back there. I have mounted some fittings for triple straps, so I can place some panniers bags sideways on the side rails securely. But still want moar!

Reckon my bars are roughly the same as the pic. But I have a striaght 17deg rise ahead stem, and zero rise bars.

Hardly seems worth it.
