Cargo Bikes – Carry More, Ride Further, and Ditch the Car
Cargo bikes are the perfect solution for urban transport, family rides, and commercial deliveries, offering exceptional carrying capacity while staying eco-friendly and practical. With sturdy frames, stable handling, and adaptable load setups, cargo bikes make it easy to transport children, groceries, business deliveries, or even pets—all while avoiding traffic and reducing your carbon footprint.
At Velo2Velo, you’ll find a wide range of second-hand cargo bikes from leading brands like Urban Arrow, Riese & Müller, Tern, Babboe, Yuba, Bullitt, and Benno. Whether you’re looking for a front-loading ‘bakfiets’ style cargo bike, a longtail for family riding, or a powerful electric cargo bike for business use, buying second-hand offers premium features at a lower cost.
Buying Tips for Second-Hand Cargo Bikes
Frame Condition & Load Capacity – Cargo bikes handle heavy loads, so inspect the frame for stress cracks, dents, and welding integrity, especially on well-used models.
Braking System – With extra weight, powerful disc brakes are essential—ensure rotors and pads have plenty of life left.
Wheel Strength & Tyres – Cargo bikes put extra strain on wheels—look for double-walled rims and reinforced spokes. Tyres should be wide, puncture-resistant, and able to handle varied surfaces.
Steering & Handling – Different styles of cargo bikes (front-loading, longtail, trike) have different handling characteristics—test ride if possible.
Mounting & Storage Options – Check if the bike has mounting points for extra accessories like rain covers, cargo boxes, or child seats.
