Reuters Cargobike Video

Hadn't run across this video before, but just stumbled upon it on YouTube - a nice Reuters piece on Dutch cargobikes including an interview with Henry Cutler.

I'd love to see a photo of someone carrying 10 kids on a bike!

Is the bakfiets seat adjustment available to accomodate someone as tall as 6' 4" ?

Mark - i believe someone 6'4" would be able to fit, though you may need a longer seat post.

I'd recommend checking with the guys at Clever Cycles or Henry at WorkCycles as they likely have experience fitting taller people to these bikes...

Well phil, I wouldn't know about 10but they do have round here in Amsterdam special school bikes to ride around kids that after school stay at the afternoon centre, or for nursery-school excursions. Of course this all is meant for kids up to 6-7 years old, the rest bikes to school on an own bike.

I've seen up to 8 kids on such a bike. I wouldn't trust a Maxy-cosy on a regular bike, but I do on a Cargo.
