They are called Cargo Bikes and they come in many forms. This is one of them. Another has a bucket front, and the most common third one involves a big T R U N K that can hold kids, or cargo.
Beware if you're used to what Bikes cost at Walmart - you're in for sticker shock.
I wanted to get the kind that had the trunk for taking my kids on bike rides but they start at 2 grand. I ain't got that kinda money for a nice-thing-to-do.
Oof... Well thanks anyway 😅
