Who would use it?

The version without the bucket would, with appropriate bags, racks, etc, use it to transport all sorts of goods that would never fit on and ordinary bicycle.

The version with the bucket is made primarily for passengers (children or smallish adults).

Hey Aaron, if you’re interested in a longtail e-bike, you need to fire up The Google, and point it toward “stokemonkey.”

These longtail bikes look useful – although (let’s admit it), a little dorky.

Does anyone have experience riding one? Are they much harder to maneuver than a regular bike?

Also, it would be great if some made a longtail e-bike — the extra power would surely come in handy for carrying heavy loads.
