I want to know what a cycle is called which one uses to sell items on the road at the back of the cycle.

The term is a trade bike. Or at least that used always to be the name for one with steel carrier at the front, used 50 years ago for taking goods door to door.– WS2Commented Oct 7, 2016 at 10:36

Note that such bikes are essentially unknown in the US, except perhaps in a few quarters of New York City, Philadelphia, etc.– Hot LicksCommented Oct 7, 2016 at 12:33

You'll probably have to narrow the field. The generic name is 'cargo bike'; in the UK, these were known as butcher's bikes (although the Royal Mail had the largest fleet). Anyway, there's quite a variety, and quite a variety of names. Currently in the US, 'long-tail bikes' are popular for delivery, etc.– JELCommented Oct 8, 2016 at 8:22

A bicycle trailer is a motorless wheeled frame with a hitch system for transporting cargo by bicycle.
or simply, Cart can also be used (Source)
