Owners of Urkai
It is just as important to know who your are buying from as it is what you are buying and that's why you will always find both Kendra & Andrew, owners of Urkai, parents, and proud "bakfieters", at every meetup. We only sell what we love and use ourselves and trust to carry our most important passenger - our three year-old son. If you are getting advice from a "salesperson" who does not use a bike or cargo bike for child transport, you may want to ask them why they are trying to sell something they don't use?
