For years we’ve been selling the Down Low Glow as a Side Visibilty and Ground Effects light for bicycles. Some of our customers have been trying it out as rear light, and I finally set it up that way for myself. The results are in. Never has it been this much fun to take the lane.

Optional Herbie BiPod Kickstand simpifies loading

Optional Herbie BiPod Kickstand simpifies loading

The Mundo’s frame accepts standard kickstands, including the Hebie BiPod kickstand. We recommend the BiPod, because it provides the right combination of strength and simplicity needed for utility bike.

The BiPod is not a true cargo kickstand. If it were, it would be much wider. Therefore you cannot expect the BiPod to keep your bike upright when loading heavy loads on one side of the bike. With this limitation in mind, the BiPod does improve the experience of everyday loading enormously. Over the course of a single shopping trip to a farmer’s market, you may use it 10 or 20 times.
