The combined weight of 2 kids just became too much. It&#8217;s a &#8220;bakfiets.nl&#8221;, first generation, so the Bafang engine didn&#8217;t easily fit. Nothing a bit of cutting and welding couldn&#8217;t fix :-).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I also upgraded the back brake and strengthened the cargo part.It used to be painted with Shaun the sheep, but Shaun had shed a lot of his wool so the kids were allowed to choose something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fat unicorn is based on a internet GIF, that I can&#8217;t find the correct source for. The shark is my own design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After 9 months and ~3.500 km, the biggest challenge is that I have to recharge often (really not that superb quality battery-management wise). Bolts and stuff tend to come loose faster. On the other hand I only had to invest ca. \u20ac 800 to have a functional and very unique electrified cargobike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped has-lightbox wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-1024x768.jpg?v=1728936671 1024w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-300x225.jpg?v=1728936671 300w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-768x576.jpg?v=1728936671 768w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-1536x1152.jpg?v=1728936671 1536w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-2048x1536.jpg?v=1728936671 2048w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-740x555.jpg?v=1728936671 740w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_haai-400x300.jpg?v=1728936671 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"353\" src=\"https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-1024x768.jpg?v=1728936677 1024w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-300x225.jpg?v=1728936677 300w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-768x576.jpg?v=1728936677 768w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-1536x1152.jpg?v=1728936677 1536w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-2048x1536.jpg?v=1728936677 2048w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-740x555.jpg?v=1728936677 740w, https:\/\/peen.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/bakfiets_unicorn-400x300.jpg?v=1728936677 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Painting a Shark on a Cargo Bike\" width=\"740\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4yRBXNzS4R0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Painting a Unicorn on a Cargobike\" width=\"740\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0j5_wdPGcp4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In spring 2021 I had to electrify my cargobike.
