Riding Bikes: Civia’s Halsted

Another entry in my Riding Bikes series. This one is the Civia Halsted – a light-cargo bike in the cycle truck style. This bike can take about 50lbs up front with a large, modular recycled plastic basket that’s handy for lots of loose items, or with the sides removed, oversize cargo. I’ve been riding this bike for about six weeks, reviewing for the July/Aug issue of Momentum Magazine and it’s almost time to bring it back to the shop. Look for my short review in the print edition of Momentum #57, with a flushed out review online in July, 2012. In the meantime, here’s an iPhone shot to give you a glimpse of this family errand runner.
