The Carryish Take

Yuba quality at an entry-level price. The Shimano Steps motor has less torque (40Nm vs 85Nm on the Spicy Curry) so steep hills with a full load will be slower. But for flat-to-moderate terrain, it does the job. The rear rack fits two child seats or panniers. Wheel skirts keep little fingers away from spokes. Good first cargo bike if you're not sure you'll commit to the lifestyle.
