Those city slickers who are not blessed with a car (or the funds to justify paying for parking) will be happy to discover that the solution to their grocery shopping problems comes in the form of the Cart Bike by Zieak. Instead of relying on that high volume backpacker bag to carry your goods from the store to your home, this Instructables user suggests a much more efficient way.
For anyone who's interested in this shopping cart bicycle hybrid, the directions for your own DIY version are available. To sum them up, one first needs to source an old two-wheeler, with at least the back tire in tact, and an abandoned grocery trolley. A great deal of handiwork and resourcefulness will ensure the successful assembly of the Cart Bike by Zieak, given that the handlebars and forks need to be joined with the back of the pushcart.
