Pashley workbikes
Pashley, founded in 1927, is the last UK manufacturer of work bikes. This is a small part of the bike business, so there aren't a lot of incentives to design and sell a work bike. As a side note, Worksman is the last/only work bike manufacturer that I knew of in the USA. I've worked in two places that used Worksman bikes and trikes at their facility, which I thought was a nice way to get workers around the facility with heavy tools (usually) while being efficient and offering a bit of light exercise for the workers.
