General
Yuba Mundo is a long bike. On this bike the cargo is fastened to an extra long bed located behind the saddle.

The model we tested has 24 gears, hand brakes and no back-pedal brakes. Child seats can be purchased and there is room for two of them.

The bed is a very long and very strong luggage rack, which is built into the frame. Large bags can be purchased and extras can be fitted to the steel tube on the side of the bike.

Loading is fine. A good kickstand keeps the bike in place during packing and unpacking. However, the bike does not have a closedboxso everything must be placed in bags or attached in other ways. Yuba Mundo is great for long objects like a surfboard strapped to the side.

Starting and driving position is no different than on a regular bike.

Riding the Yuba Mundo feels just like a normal bike and because of this it is the clear cut winner of the all the bikes we tested. The bike is light and is well suited for longer distances and is also a good entry level models for green cargo bikers.

Conclusion
Yuba Mundo is the test’s lightest and strongest cargo bike. Even with very heavy loads the bike is nice to rideand it is the obvious choice for those riding longer distances.
