Ill go with: it’s a good idea. A cargo bike is a large piece of rigid structure that you don’t use while camped overnight, so why not incorporate it in a design?
using the bike or motorcycle to hold up the tent is good and has been done for a long time without needing expensive special stuff (you can do it with a tarp, some rope, and some pegs), i'm sure this thing will be useful but expensive
Guess I'll take the contrarian side here and say this looks like a nice rain fly for a bicycle and not something I'd want to sleep in. Poles are not make or break when it comes to weight and having a space with a floor where I can get situated without hitting my face on my mud-covered bike seems worth the slight additional encumbrance. If I was going for ultralight I'd use a camping hammock instead.
crucially this specific design even has poles, which look about 80-90% of the length they'd need to be to give the equivalent tent height without using the bike. so the tradeoff between floor space and height seems even worse than it could be
