Drew, I was able to check out a Kombi. It does have the braze on for a
front derailleur cable stop, as well as cable guides for the cable route
down the down tube. A conversion to a double or triple crank is doable!

recently put together a mundo for a friend with a triple and there's
nothing weird about the seat tube. took a regular FD without any shims,
etc. cant imagine a kombi is much different?

I've been following this thread with interest. I'm still on the lookout
for a rosco bebbe, but if you're looking for a Yuba Sweet Curry here are
few options for sale around the country:

Yeah it's definitely between the Kombi and Short haul now. Leaning Kombi,
but finding anywhere that stocks these for a test ride is proving
impossible in los angeles. Looks like the Kombi is out of stock now as
well.
Will M, did your Yuba come with a double up front? The Kombi is a 1x and I

Drew,
I faced the same dilemma a few years back. An Atlantis +
Rich-Lesnick-built 36-spoke rear wheel (and child carrier) were easily
rated for my 40-lb 5 y.o., (also w/ sensory issues) but I found the weight
that high up (on top o' 700c wheel) made the stability unsafe. Really
unsafe.

Why not electric? My kids are nearing college age and I'm looking forward
to replacing a car with an e-cargo bike. I have no specific
recommendations for you, but to me, you get more general utility with a
motor.

Drew,
The Yuba Kombi probably will make more sense in the long term because it's,
like, a mid-tail cargo bike and when your kid is riding on their own it's
still useful as a cargo hauler. Also can best serve as both kid and cargo
interchangeably, during transition period when you want your kid
Drew,
Where are you? Depending on the family bike scene near you, Facebook
marketplace or craigslist might have some deals. When I sold my cargo bikes
in Nashville, I sold then to someone from 4-5 hours away each time, so it
is often worth it to spread your radius if you don't find something lo
Thanks for all the thoughts and feedback. It's unfortunate that there are
so few non electric options these days, but helpful to know which older
models to keep an eye out for. I did discover that Yuba has a version of
the Kombi that isn't electric and about the same price as the Tern. Bike

It amuses me that the difference in wheelbase length between my medium Big Dummy and my medium Gus is only 9”. On Jul 22, 2023, at 12:53 PM, Eric Daume wrote:You could look for an old Kona MinUte. Kind of a short cargo bike. There was another model like this, but I can't remember what it was.Eric
It's long, but I love the surly big dummy or big fat dummy. They are just
great riding bikes, loaded or empty. I've had several and they are all
great bikes. It's long but not much longer than a clem (for some reason).
Great riding bikes and you won't even notice 100lbs or so on the tail.
