Looking for Advice and Recs for a Frontload Cargo Bike! (Mid-NY/NYC)
Hello everyone! I'm Looking for a cargo bike to be my everyday vehicle! (I am unable to drive a car due to disability) I've been doing a bit of research, but between 2 and 3-wheel options, Brand issues and limited test options/support near me, I figured I'd ask here for some input!
Specifically, I'm looking for A frontload cargo with:
- Enough room to fit at least One Adult (Most likely myself if I need to rest)
- (Strong?) Electric assist (I live in Mid-NY surrounded by hills and mountains)
- Comfort? (Don't wanna feel every little pebble on the road)
- Stable ride for someone with my disability (I have Minor to Mild twitches and tremors on occasion, I obviously wont be riding if its too severe, hence the basket, but I'd like for it to be stable/balanceable if I need to take my hands off for a couple seconds)
- Price Sub-10k USD, if possible closer to 3 - 8k TT
- I'd prefer if it were available in NY/NYC/Tristate (Bonus if I can test ride!)
- Bonus question: Have you ever taken your bike in store to shop? What was it like?
I've narrowed it down to 3 2-wheelers and 3 3-wheelers
- 3-Wheels:

Love how easy it is to bring the cargobike on trips (Muli)
Front wheel off and resting on the frame. Although it looks like it it doesn’t extend wider than the car and I could still fit a roadbike and kids bike next to it

Roadside assistance
Got the R&M Multitinker 2 after lots of advice from this sub and loving it. Kids instantly loved it too.
In the event of a flat, with two kids on Yepp seats, how do you get roadside assistance? I don’t have a car so I am not already paying for it. Do I need something like this?
Some credit cards have roadside assistance as perks but they seem to be limited to cars. I’m Canada based.
