Designer Chengli Hung&#8217;s cargo bike concept is a two-wheeled attempt at &#8220;all things to all people&#8221;.  It&#8217;s a cargo hauling scooter that can transform into a sort of sport bike by simply swapping or adding components.  The bike is describe by the designer as:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8230;a small scooter but have a large integrated storage area and an optional storage compartment in the mid-section of the scooter. The flexible steering handlebar allows the scooter to transform into a more potent motorbike for higher speeds which improves the aerodynamics of this vehicle and brings more pleasure of riding.</p></blockquote>
<p>Interesting idea!  I&#8217;ve always liked the cargo scooter and in fact, this isn&#8217;t the first one to show up on <a href="http://www.tuvie.com/cargo-scooter-concept-by-elliot-ortiz/">Tuvie</a>. I&#8217;m also a big fan of the cargo <a href="http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/06/01/petite-cargo-pickup-plays-transformer/">Microcar</a>. I have to wonder if Aprilia ever sold any of their <a href="http://cargobike.com/">Cargobikes</a>, which was really nothing more than a SportCity with a large storage compartment where the step-through once was. Not taking anything away from it! I&#8217;d like to see that kit available here in the USA! *writes email to Cargobike*</p>
<p>Oh, and&#8230; it&#8217;s really too bad we won&#8217;t ever see any <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Gyro">Honda Cargo Gyro&#8217;s</a> or new <a href="http://www.mrsikhnet.com/2005/09/car-shopping-and-truck-replaced-by.html">Bajaj Vans</a> here.  Well, not so much &#8220;too bad&#8221; as &#8220;it really pisses me off&#8221;.   *climbs on soapbox* STOP the auto lobbyists from blocking the acceptance of micro work vehicles on American roads!  *steps off soapbox*  At least I think (hope) you can still get Peirspeed&#8217;s <a href="http://www.cobrasales.com/delivery.htm">Pizza scooter</a>.</p>
