Don't you think these will be better than pushing 4 wheeler cart and walking so many miles ? Name the country where postperson walk so many mile? Not even in poor third world countries ... shame on the person who invented this pushing the cart system.

If the gearing was right you prob would not need a motor. However on the roads you would prob get killed.

These were part of the trial of various trikes and bikes (electric and manual) for the original delivery methods project equipment. They were unsuccessful and the current shared van and HCTs solution developed instead. As far as I am aware, these trikes were scrapped.
