Yuba Bicycles’ Boda Boda
Made for toting kids or cargo, there’s a built-on rear rack topped with a bamboo “deck” on this unique bike. Children sit on the deck and hold on for a ride. (My kids love it!)
Or, load the eight-speed Boda Boda up with groceries and gear — its rack and longer frame design can support large weights with no issue. $999, www.yubabikes.com

NOTE: We have demo’d Yuba bikes from a local independent shop, Calhoun Cycle in Minneapolis. If you’re serious about a cargo bike seek a shop with a staff that knows the genre; they will help you dial-in the right bike (and the right fit/configuration/add-on parts) once you make a decision to buy.
