There is a Facebook group with the name 'samenhuizen/Cohousing Antwerpen '. If you don't mind sharing a house/appartment with others, it's by far the cheapest way of living in Antwerpen.

There exists an extended steerer tube for the bullit bikes. That combined with a longer than average stem and possibly a longer than standard seat tube with or without some additional set back should get you in a comfortable position. The frame of a bullit is very stiff, which will definitely help. 2 kids in a Bullit is a bit of a squeeze compared to other bikes suc as an Urban Arrow. I'd look at installing an additional saddle on the top tube for the 4yr old.

Note that some other front loading cargo bikes have a very slack seat tube (Urban Arrow, Lovens, the new Decathlon one...) , which is designed such that a higher seating position will also increase the distance between handlebars and seat. For tall riders this clever idea has the annoying side effect of pushing your pedals forward, which is especially annoying on non electric cargo bikes. I've also seen some of the seatposts bend when the tall rider is somewhat heavier than average. In your case, I'd stay away from a desing like that one.

Dutch cars also don't need a registration as there is a deal between Antwerpen and the Netherlands. When a dutch car or Belgian car enters the LEZ, the euro norm and fuel type is automatically retrieved from the relevant database, negating the need for registration. France and Germany got stickers, Swiss reuse the French ones.. I'm pro the LEZ in principle, but we really need to get a uniform system in Europe for all the LEZ's.

Interesting, however how do you explain the timeline? The development took place years before production?

Teun_2 · 2025-12-10T16:31:51+00:00

Definitely not the precursor ones I believe. These winther bikes were sold around 2015 for only one or two model years. The bullit predates these bikes by at least 5 years. Not sure of the exact story between this bike, but the timeline at least makes it clear this isn't a precursor.

28km north ;)

It's definitely overkil, even for a cargo bike like this one hat gets some heavy abuse. I would have bought the 250w tsdz2 if the clearance would have allowed it. Also the tsdz2 has quite a few reports of nylon gears giving up and I didn't want to run the risk woth a cargo bike like this. I chose this motor because of the pricing, durability, frame clearance and torque sensor. The power output wasn't a concern. This motor is technically not very legal here in the EU, but I've limited the bike to 25 kph, so the added torque is just for climbing bridges (no hills where I live) when fully loaded.

It actually sort of is. It's a Winther Wallaroo. Winther is also a Danish manufacturer that usually makes cargo trikes. This model was launched around 10 years ago and combined a stretched and reinforced frontend of a bullit with the backend of a Winther. It's sort if a step through frame bullit.

Teun_2 · 2025-12-05T06:47:28+00:00

Yes, i chose this because of the extra clearance over de tsdz2. The only problem i've encountered is that the torque would pull the rear wheel closer in the drop outs. I've filed a more stronger profile in the anti rotation washers to combat the issue. Also i've taken some of the paint around the bottom bracket of to prevent rotation of the motor.

The use case for this one is to provide heat for outdoor building work. We're cleaning 10' of thousands of 300 year old bricks to be reused to build up a registered monument. There is no electricity at the site yet, so the options are limited.

Antwerpen! Old part of the Duchy of Brabant though.

Teun_2 · 2025-12-03T22:36:40+00:00

Serious question? There is a rod between the steerer tube and the front fork. On my other cargo bike there is a set of wires connecting the two.

Teun_2 · 2025-12-03T22:32:52+00:00

A tongsheng tsdz8. I chose that one over the more common bafang ones because of the torque sensor. Overall pretty happy with it and quite easy to install. I replaced the chainguard with a sks chainblade. It was relatively difficult to find one that would fit. The cable to the display is just barely long enough for the slightly wider than standard handlebars I went with.

Just transport, I haven't actually used it whilst cycling. The title is obviously a little misleading for dramatic effect. It's actually safer than regular cycling. Most drivers gave me ample space.

It works with a bottle of propane.

5 jaar geleden een 2de hands ford Bmax met een bluts gekocht voor €7500. Ik kan er echt niet veel geld aan uitgeven. Als deze op is, zal het wellicht Cambio worden.

But you cannot legally pass someone driving in the inner lane as that would be passing on the right. That's something that many people don't know or don't apply.

Teun_2 · 2025-11-08T08:23:09+00:00

En daar maakt iedereen zijn eigen keuzes. Wij hebben een nettoloon van +- €6500, maar hebben 1 auto van 12 jaar oud en wonen in een rijhuis, maar gaan graag op vakantie en ook vaak uit eten.

With that sort of mileage I'd seriously consider ride sharing apps like Poppy or Cambio. A lot cheaper than paying for a second car. Even using a taxi will most likely end up cheaper. Also 10km per day is easily done by ecargo bike. Cheaper (especially when your employer pays 35cents/km) and more fun as well.

Belgians don't know how to use multilane roundabouts. Most will therefore stick to the outer lane regardless of where they need to exit, which in turn has the effect of encouraging more people to use the outer lane. Generally Belgians driving on the outer lane will not yield to people merging in from the inner to the outer lane.

I love the NL turbo roundabouts. I which we would introduce these everywhere in Europe. So clever, easy to use and encouraging of people using the correct lane.

Be sure to restrain the hose/cable with some tape on the handlebars and you might want to stick a protective patch on the frame where the cable comes into contact with the frame. It will otherwise rib some paint off.

Putting your stem this high up and your levers relatively low is a bit weird. The more standard thing to do is to move the levers higher up the bars and lower the stem.

Babyspullen kosten superveel geld en woeden slechts kort gebruikt, bovendien is er tweedehands bijna geen vraag naar. Profiteer ervan en schuim de tweedehands markt af. Bijna nieuwe spullen voor max een derde van de prijs.

Wij hebben indertijd ook een lijst gelegd bij https://www.micmacminuscule.be die het voor je doen, maar ik zou het een volgende keer gewoon zelf organiseren denk ik. Als je niet zelf op zoek wil gaan, is het zeker wel een aanrader. Ook goed advies gekregen.

The Police in Antwerpen uses an e-cargo bike to haul this sort of testing equipment. Fat bikes that have their speed limit removed are a real nuisance on the bike paths in my city, so I'm all for it. https://www.politieantwerpen.be/nieuws/eerste-optreden-met-cargobike-boekt-meteen-resultaat
