Good to go. Loads of stuf to tweek. Highlight for me is the front dice valve cap.

Looks great - love the chunky tyres.

Completely unrelated - what spider is that on the middleburns?

Cheers.

It is the double spider. Sorry for the lazy screen photo

Looks like the fork has mid fork eyelets for a low rider rack

Ah ha thank you. Why is it the 130 bcd is the nicest looking?

Looks really good! Any idea how much it can carry Vs something similar like a Bullitt?

It rides great and handles the weight if my son way way better than omnium did. I think max load is tricky to say as the loading area is enclosed, so less flexible. It fits my needs perfectly

It feels a hell of a lot stiffer than the a bullitt and steering less boat like.

That's great, and good info.
Not much use if the thing just looks faster but doesn't feel better/faster.
Also, depending on where I look, quite a bit less money than a bullit frame it seems.

My primary use

Looks perfect for that use case. I'm fantasising about a cargo bike to lug my big stupid dog about in and this isn't helping.

Looks great! Now you only need to find a matching carbon front wheel. ;-)

How does the cable steering feel? Is there any "delay" or something?

No delay in feel. Potentially a little 'heavier' but all the folks on the German forum love theirs and day the steering is super light. I suspect the issue was my set up. It also may have been a slightly sticky new headset(s). I've already got a feel for it.

I'm looking forward to the screams I will receive for trying to get my little one into this rain cover monstrosity.

This would look pretty on it!
