Bullit vs Urban Arrow

Hi folks,
I'm considering a cargo bike and interested in hearing from someone whose ridden both the Urban Arrow(cargo model) and the Bullit. I'm curious how/if the bikes handle differently from each other? My primary use will be grocery getter but i'll need to haul a significant load (including a couple or kids or an adult) on occasion. Also, i can see putting some longer trips in on it so an ergonomic comparison would also be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I thought my question was fairly straightforward? Thanks anyway but i can do my own research. It's only a direct ride comparison I'm interested....by someone who's ridden both.

I'll be at the ICBF in a few weeks time, both Bullit and Urban Arrow will be exhibiting, so I'll see if I can undertake a first impressions direct comparison for you and any others who may be interested.

Check out the blog Humofthecity.com, she owns a Bullitt and has tried the Urban Arrow:

She's on Twitter as well and would probably be happy to answer any of your questions.

Great find Mel2012. Excellent info. Looks like the Bullit may be the direction I lean.
