As the price of gas increases, many people are looking for alternative forms of transportation. Bicycling has always been popular for shorter distance trips, but many bicycles have limited carrying capacity, which limits their use. The advent of a new form of bicycle, the cargo bike changes this. A cargo bike is just like a regular bike, but is longer with a substantial carrying rack in back. This allows the rider to carry a week’s worth of groceries, bulky items or even children in bicycle child seats. This addition changes the bicycle into a green transportation alternative, extending its use from just recreation to transportation.

The psycological barrier of a large hill is enough to keep many bikes in the garage. But adding an electric bike conversion kit to a bike removes this barrier, so many people get the bike out and start having fun on it again.
