Put a rooftop tent (the foldable type with a ladder your see on landrovers) on top. Use the container as your kitchen, mini-disco, sauna or whatever. You can even do some deliveries on your journey. Happy camping ;)
Thank you for this fascinating and enjoyable video. So many of the ICE vehicles in Brighton or London could be replaced with Armadillos and the cities would become so much better to live in for everyone.

I agree with the guy it cool to try it out for camper o to travel to places in my country New Zealand, this bikes could really good here .Gisborne camping on beach I'm really liking this even more now
As always, awesome video! I agree that these are the future. We use cargo bikes for our business. I'm interested in purchasing one of these but it only comes with 250 watts of assist. We would need 1,000-1500 watts like we have now with the Bafang BBSHD. If they offer this we'll get one.
Incredible smart and intelligent system, and mybe they could use the fairing made for recumbent trikes for some weather protection and less air resistance.
On the cargo boxes maybe adding lifting points it looks like two of those bins could could stacked on the relay truck on top of each other and then they could be craned on and off the big truck or lowered off the top rack with a lift gate
Great stuff! I work in logistics ...I'm hoping my company could go to this option. For cities like Manchester, London, Southampton etc it would be better than vans and cheaper than insuring large fleets and then the cost. Plus you could have more of them. Would they require a license John?
Excellent! So finding drivers would be easier than van drivers for many companies too. What's the expected price? I would imagine a fleet price would be better, of say 20 to do a city and it's boroughs like Machester or Preston. Plus you'd only need two bike mech's and a sparky for upkeep.
I'd love to see this with some sort of cab for the rider for weather protection... possibly for aero as well, although at it's operating speed that would probably not be significant.
Thats a great bit of kit but we need wider roads for these machines and the motor cars to co-exist or at least wider and many more cycle paths in the uk.
One thing I would add is a wind fairing for recumbents. I think that could help protect the rider when they have to be on roads with regular motor vehicles.
I went with my velomobile from Göteborg to London last year, you should bike here too! :) There is the direct ferry from Germany so you don't have to be in Denmark ;)
I saw a video from someone who used a Rohloff hub with mid-drive and he was saying the 3-speed is all you need with a standard electric bike as it can handle much more power coming into the hub then the rohloffs with more gears. But maybe due to weight of this vehicle you need the extra gears.
Marvelous video John. Is it just me, or do they look like luggage carts from airports? Airports should invest in these, it would save them a ton of money of maintenance and fuel.
Would you perhaps do some cycling parcel or perhaps some other delivery as another source of income? I’d assume it’d become handy. It would look seriously awesome with a fairing.
Greetings from Swedeeeeen! (Helsingborg, Skåne) Tried one of those damn cargobikes yesterday..crashed 5 times, lol! How Do you guys do it? Felt as if I was going to tip over.
Very nice cargo e-bike.. iam jelous.. if there maybe a shipping in our country baguio city philippines i will immediately buy 1.. very good for small tym business.. going to market.. it can help a lot.. wish i have one..😮😥
Is that a crutch-scooter in the back??😆 So, 2 things; 1* they're using rollhoff for that weight? that is impressive! And 2*; who needs a spare wheel when you have Schwalbe tires? I got'em in all my bikes for years now and not a single flat in 8 years
Feels just fine, I will have to hold fire on what it's like after a full day on the seat though. Until I ride one for a few days, there is a guy riding one to china at the moment from Switzerland with two kids on board.
With a Belts That’s What’s Missing All We Need is That and We’re Good To Go Because This Looks Like a Driving Scalaton With Nothing On Top It Has a But No Belts And a Driving Cab With 2 Doors After That You Can Deliver A Whole Bunch Of Pizzas Who Knows How Many You Can Carry
I write you in spanish because my english is not good. Pienso q pudiste haber hecho un video mucho mas corto c info acerca del armadillo bike (q cabe mencionar, es hermoso y muy funcional), podrias tmb haber incluido una parte d su manufactura, mas d las competencias, mas d la reaccion d la gente en la calle, pero pasaste mucho tiempo grabando las caras d las personas del proyecto aun cuando t mostraban piezas y funcionamiento.

Ebikes are the future whether people accept it or not . They won't replace traditional bikes but their numbers will nearly match them .
I can imagine building a great bike camper on the trailer version!
Right! If they were a little bit longer I would definitely buy one! you could put a whole sleeping bag and a lot of other stuff in there
th-cam.com/video/xvfEm3h0CAQ/w-d-xo.html
It's what I'm thinking, but would it be robust enough to do a world tour ?

That thing is beautiful. Wish I could afford one
Thank you for this fascinating and enjoyable video. So many of the ICE vehicles in Brighton or London could be replaced with Armadillos and the cities would become so much better to live in for everyone.
I’m new to your channel. I like tech a lot and your smile makes it even more pleasing!
I love the Armadillo the little engineer in me is screaming right now to buy one and build a canopy for the rainy days here in germany :D
I saw a DHL armadillo in Mexico, they did add a canopy to shield the operator from the intense sun in Monterrey and occasional rain.
Why the rear wheel is off the ground without tracking as shown in the video ?
Ha ha ha! Welcome to Sweden. I see you enjoyed Armadillo. I want that bike😃
The stability seems amazing. I want one! Thanks John.!
Excellent video! I love the fact that it wasn't super long but you gave a decent explanation for everything attached to the armadillo. Very cool
Wow so cool we need these in uk if we havent already got them 😀 be so cool to see one off these cruising along
dhl is delivering in my hood with armadillos now, it makes me smile all the time :)
this is the best velo for me...
armadillo & trailer...
what an amazing stability...
sweden engineering is magnificent...
hope have this one... wkwkwk

This is cool stuff, I don't mind having one!
Very good video! Next time come to Finland 😁
I WANT THIS THING SO BADLY
Great product and great video. Thanks.
I agree with the guy it cool to try it out for camper o to travel to places in my country New Zealand, this bikes could really good here .Gisborne camping on beach I'm really liking this even more now
I want one of these for grocery shopping! unfortunately it looks like itll be a while before it comes to the US
This stuff is going more intresstant this times in the UK ;-))
AWESOME! I want an armadillo. 😃🤗

Really good, and that particular bike and DHL, to Ireland? Very cool
Мужик. Я не знаю почему это смотрю в России, но это славно. Так держать!
That scooter at 6:12 with no handlebars peaked my interest.
Incredible smart and intelligent system, and mybe they could use the fairing made for recumbent trikes for some weather protection and less air resistance.
I dream of having one of these -Ive held a Driver license for 30 years and lately I despise driving a car in traffic and much rather ride a bike😊
Nice looking rig. But needs a better battery system, and maybe regenerative braking. After all 25km is only 15.5 miles. Just a thought.
I also was thinking of it as a modern teardrop camper/micro house.😁❤️✌️
This chassis would make a great solar vehicle with the right shell.
Unconventional.....and BRILLIANT!
Excellent, definitely interested in getting one of these before april 2021
We need to speak as I'm an ambassador for them now.
On the cargo boxes maybe adding lifting points it looks like two of those bins could could stacked on the relay truck on top of each other and then they could be craned on and off the big truck or lowered off the top rack with a lift gate
Yes, but that will also be too tall and will have the risk of landing on one side...
I Love These But The Only Thing is that There is No Sitting Cab On Top With Two Doors for Rain and Snow And It Also Needs a Windshield
I am sure the Armadillo is expensive , but it looks like the future to me .
Agreed! I think expensive, but then compared to the value!
The Future is Now
Great stuff! I work in logistics ...I'm hoping my company could go to this option. For cities like Manchester, London, Southampton etc it would be better than vans and cheaper than insuring large fleets and then the cost. Plus you could have more of them. Would they require a license John?
No licence, just pedal.
Excellent! So finding drivers would be easier than van drivers for many companies too. What's the expected price? I would imagine a fleet price would be better, of say 20 to do a city and it's boroughs like Machester or Preston. Plus you'd only need two bike mech's and a sparky for upkeep.

I was thinking the same thing, ie streamer fairing.
Thats sooooo Cool! 👌🏻
I really want to use one of these as a petty cap in my town shuttles people from parking lots to restaurants and bars
I went with my velomobile from Göteborg to London last year, you should bike here too! :) There is the direct ferry from Germany so you don't have to be in Denmark ;)
fun to watch.
Hallo John,
Lovely video well made and well done Mate,
John can you please ask the team when the ARMADILLO CARGO BIKE full cab design well be ready ?
Will do mate.
it's amazing
Hope you liked our city
I absolutely loved it.
1.! :D I am so rarely first at anything I just had to take advantage of that occasion! ;D
give john a toy / velo and he is having fun even it is for parcels

Hola mexico sepallo tresamucho grasias
Friend very good your videos, I wanted to know if you have a video where details more the mechanism of traction and the engine that has, thanks.
Maybe try velove. Se on TH-cam or Armadillo cargo bike, you should find more that way.
Marvelous video John. Is it just me, or do they look like luggage carts from airports? Airports should invest in these, it would save them a ton of money of maintenance and fuel.
Thanks Gabriel, I am seriously looking into getting one as they are definitely th future 🔮 especially in my city.
Would you perhaps do some cycling parcel or perhaps some other delivery as another source of income? I’d assume it’d become handy. It would look seriously awesome with a fairing.
@@gabrielpayan5971 that's the plan.
Why wasn't a garage door type used with top and bottom roller? Operating either roller would open the entire side. The dual doors look inconvenient.
Is anybody going to ask a rude question, "how much it costs"!

Do you know if the Armadillo is considered a bike in Thailand , that is where I live. I am very interested in seeing these in more use.
I'm not sure, you may have to check with your local authority.
Sir this is totally new concept if you can launch in India it will be good business for your company
Sí,llegan a vender cargo bike aquí en México espero no sea muy caro para comprarme uno me gusta,para la mercancía de mi negocio.
Nicee.. i like thiss👌
Класс
John going into bizz,, London’s anything small message and delivery. Buy 4 of em .
I wanna get one for London
Is that a crutch-scooter in the back??😆
So, 2 things; 1* they're using rollhoff for that weight? that is impressive! And 2*; who needs a spare wheel when you have Schwalbe tires? I got'em in all my bikes for years now and not a single flat in 8 years
Yes, I run Schwalbe tires too, but they can still go flat, specially if your putting a load on them, so the spare wheel makes sense to me.
hi Sid from Australia ,how much do they cost
It was not clear on how many KM does a battery can move you, did he say 25KM/charge?
On average 25 km, met a guy riding one n London recently, he gets 35km per battery as his route is flatter.
It can be more if you’re careful and add all six batteries. I WANT ONE SO BAD 😂
Hi,is it possible an idea about prices,thanks
Good morning. How much and how much does it cost to be sent to Brazil ?? Thank you.
Bra jobbat!
Where can i buy an armadillo bike?
How much it costs for me i live in Kyrgyzstan Bishkek
Its nice, and I like to have one, can you send me the price
I live and am from here in Brazil. Help me, send me the site so I can buy one of these please...
What about showing us how it will perform in an uphill roads.
If you watch the most recent hill climb competition vlog there is one competing in that.

Qual é o preço, vocês podem me dizer?
How did you manage to get in touch with them? I've emailed them twice with no reply.
How can I buy a velove armadillo like that?
Can you tell me please how fast do they go?
Restricted to 15 mph of assist, you can go faster with pedalling
@@velo-ads4206 thanks
How much. low end, high end
How about the more upright position compared to a standard recumbent or velomobile?
Feels just fine, I will have to hold fire on what it's like after a full day on the seat though. Until I ride one for a few days, there is a guy riding one to china at the moment from Switzerland with two kids on board.

Now with a minor upgrade with more batteries that would make a splendid mobile scooter lol
Can buy it.from indonesia.
