Cargo bikes like you have never seen before

Cool bikes September 23rd, 2011

It’s worth checking out Alain Delormes’s photos of Chinese cargo bikes and the people riding them.

A reader just pointed out that the original site (Huffington Post) updated their site to clarify the photos are digitally altered. It did look a little over the top . . . .

    Neat photos, but it is worth noting that the article indicates they are photoshopped to accentuate the loads.

    I have a problem with digitally altered photojournalism.

    They may have been photoshopped, but I can tell you that I saw some loads of cardboard that were two-tiered high. Those Chinese really use bikes for their recycling.

    BTW — I should say, I’m just back from China as of Monday.
