Torker Cargo T

I've been eyeing lots of different bikes lately. I most likely will be buying something used (and cheap) but I can't resist checking out some of the new stuff that's out there. Although I don't have a need for a cargo bike, I really like the Torker Cargo T. If I bought one I'm sure I'd make up stupid reasons to haul stuff around. It sounds like this could actually work as a daily errand bike.

The Cargo T in gray. It comes equipped with a Shimano 3 speed hub, front and rear racks and heavy duty kickstand for about $599.

Urban Velo has reviewed this bike, which is how I learned about it to begin with.

Here's another review of the Cargo T by R.L. Policar on the Bike Commuters blog.

Looking through the Torker catalog I found another bike that I like, the T300. Its equipped with a Sturmey-Archer 3 speed hub and a steel frame. Basic trouble free transportation for about $350.

  4. Those two bikes are what bikes are meant to be - functional, durable, and fun to ride.

  5. That Torker looks like quite a tank. I'll bet it would last forever.
