The Kona Africa Bike is a lot like a 'normal bike' version of the Yuba Mundo in many ways. It has a pretty good load capacity for a regular bike; being integrated into the frame means the rack can carry a lot more weight than an after-market rear rack. The downside of this is that the rack tubing diameter limits the choice of panniers which can be used somewhat. The fork also has a second set of eyelets for a front carrier or large basket too.
I ended up giving mine to my girlfriend, as much as I liked the Africa Bike, I liked my Raleigh Roadster more, and keeping them both for myself seemed a bit pointless. The upside is that she has been able to discover what it is like to ride a bike which is practical, comfortable and upright, which has really turned her on to cycling quite a bit more.
