You can do both with ease if you’re up for it. Not every bicycle looks like what you think a bicycle looks like - the US is very fond of sports-focused bikes that aren’t capable of much utility.
To do more with a bike than just leisure/sports, you’d want to consider either something practical with a rear rack, a cargo bike, or an equad van
I plan to add a rear rack to my newly built ebike. is having one and a front basket overkill?
Doesn’t sound overkill at all IMO, having both will make it much easier to carry more on the bike.
Only thing worth noting though, putting heavy things in the front basket could change the handling a little bit

So you are blaming a baby and a non-existent wife for your refusal to find another way. 👍
keep in mind we’re basically pioneers at this point. we’re paving the way to make taking your kid to school on a bike practical in the future
