I feel like that would be the first thing to start with. Id buy one just because... even if I already had a stealth bomber

Chalo said:It is difficult bordering on impossible to get a straight chainline on the Luna cargo bike.
Chalo said:For that bike, I highly recommend the Origin8 DAT-PRO 65 rim. It's wide enough for fatbike tires, but narrow enough for MTB and cruiser tires, and it's way stronger than single-walled or drilled-out fatbike rims. Plus, its slightly narrower size buys you more gearing options on a bike that has built-in limitations in that regard.
As for tires, I recommend a smooth treaded tire of at least 2.25" width: Schwalbe Big Apple, Big Ben, Crazy Bob; CST Cyclops, Maxxis Hookworm, Kenda Kraze, Vee Speedster, Origin8 Captiv8r, or Arisun Big Smoothy. The bigger you go within this range, the more it will cost you in speed and chain clearance.

Unfortunately the screws are not the same size, from lever the size is bigger than the bleeder screw
