!micromobility@lemmy.world would probably appreciate pics and a rundown of your build when it's finished. Cargo bikes are awesome!
Step 1 in the cargo bike transition is complete! I have some secondhand panniers to try out with some groceries, and I'll see about adding better brakes, a rear basket and eventually a front basket, options like that.
(I mentioned in another comment that I'd had to modify the rack to get it to attach since the right seat stay is crowded, that's the blue part in the picture.)
Nice, Koolstop Salmons are good rim brake pads if you can't upgrade to disc brakes.
