I am the proud owner of a Bakfiets LWB cargobike (the slightly cheaper Dutch version of Viking utility bikes) and I guess the frame was made in China just like with most Danish cargobikes. To stay on topic, I may add there is plenty of space to carry half a dozen view cameras and glass plates :-) Some pictures I took in Copenhagen in September 2008: http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/VoyageDKSepOct2008#5253825613469181890 http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/VoyageDKSepOct2008#5253825482764819618 http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/VoyageDKSepOct2008#5253825385819504546 (this one might be a Bakfiets imported from NL) http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/VoyageDKSepOct2008#5253825399461148322 (disc brakes - Christianiabikes, made in DK) http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/VoyageDKSepOct2008#5253825409090716082 (Kangaroo, independent front wheels, made in DK - the fastest cargotrike, not cheap) http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/VoyageDKSepOct2008#5253825568943114370 (Jernhest front wheel drive and rear steering, made in DK - the most agile) Other pictures taken in deep wild Mexico: a brand new Mercurio, http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/SalamancaJanvier2009#5316164389929356210 Mercurio parking: http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/SalamancaJanvier2009#5298390412203487026 the glass delivery version: http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/SalamancaJanvier2009#5316164044041639826 and a conversion into a Taco restaurant: http://picasaweb.google.com/jean.louchet/2009mar15ValtierrillaLaCapitalMundialDelNopal#5316162738517241890 Jean -- Jean Louchet INRIA-APIS 4 rue Jacques Monod 91893 ORSAY Cedex France jean.louchet at inria.fr http://jean.louchet.free.fr/ "I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him" (Booker T.
