I saw this bike made by an independent bike shop for himself.
It’s an electric longtail and can carry a 300kg europallet, plus the toolbox on the front, plus an extra person or material on the bike rack!
Here is the link to the shop website: https://www.cycles-penet.fr/

Would be better if it could haul standard containers. Then we could replace trucks with bikes.
That’s not furniture…
Depends on the brand. Could be a bike shaped object
What do you mean? My house is entirely furnished with bicycles. I respect your life choices but you are missing great opportunities for drying your clothes.
I was just thinking about hacking together a bike trailer for hauling pallets of stuff the other day. I need a pallet jack that can lift pallets on to it though.
The people who think you can’t haul shit in a bike have seriously never tried. As long as you’re on flat surfaces it’s just as easy as riding a bike without a load imo, save some learning curve for turns.
Ehhhh starting from stopped is hellish when you have a heavy load behind you, and maintaining momentum on the flat definitely takes a lot more. I recently got a trailer to transport my kids and where I might be able to go 20 miles on just my bike, I struggle to make it more than 3 miles with the extra 2 wheels and 80 lbs of kids behind me. Granted I live in a hilly area, but I can definitely tell that it isn’t just the challenge of hills given how much slower I go on flatish sections and downhill
They didn’t even realise that it’s a possibility at all, that’s what usually happen when someone is driving or being driven their whole life
also a glaring, blindspot behind all the junk being hauled.
Nobody hauls shit like this on their bikes, nobody ever does on their bike that has a blind spot. That’s why this picture is impressive and crazy.
I’ll tell you right now though, as a contractor, who has hauled many trucks for my company, with trailers, and for other people, blind spots are definitely a huge issue for hauling with vehicles. But yeah, guy hauling shit on his bike with blind spots is the issue.
Isn’t that a load of bikes? I don’t see a sofa or refrigerator
Must be dutch.
Bike is sofa and they have ride-thru fridges.
Well I can’t ride a bike in my area at all, so I still wouldn’t be able to move furniture with a bike.
Take the lane. Cover the furniture with a giant yellow tarp.
