motofocker cargo-scooter by f*ckmáté from hungary
designer's own words:
"unlike the italian company’s ‘ape’ tricycles and small transport trucks from the 20th century, this modified motorino maintains its two-wheeled structure for transporting goods. this increases maneuverability on narrow streets to avoid traffic, potholes, cracks and bumps. the ‘cargo-scooter’ also improves on the dutch bakfiets (a load-bearing bicycle) as the driver exerts less effort to take heavy packages uphill.
its compact form and two-wheeled frame allow freedom of movement around obstacles in narrow and crowded streets, much like a standard unburdened motorcycle. the light commercial vehicle has a wear-and-tear resistant motor that can handle substantial loads even uphills."
(designboom, motofocker cargo-scooter, 2013)
This vehicle is newer, I used a Polish "Komar" scooter frame and an East-German "Simson" engine from the end of the sixties. I made everything in my atelier. I would like to build an electric or hybrid cargo-scooter.
