Hey all,
I have an xtracycle on a cannondale right now and am looking at an e-mundo. I live on a steep hill and in a part of the city thats comparable to the hills of the east bay, maybe a 30% grade and my average load includes my growing 50lb child and about a dozen library books - the xtra isnt cutting it in terms of pulling a load and keeping its own balance, and I have a dream that one day I will stop having to call friends to pick up drywall and building materials for me...I am a complete novice - not mechanically inclined aside from some bike maintenance - but I would like some advice on buying/building something that would work better for me. I looked at the E-mundo, and it was the closest thing I could find to what I am looking for. I haven't had a chance to really look over all the posts, they are a bit overwhelming - so if theres some posts that might be of help me me let me know. Look forward to "hearing" from yinz!
