What can you do with a cargo bike? Which one is right for your family?

The Tern GSD will help you get stuff done. Carry two kids and haul a week’s worth of groceries!

The Cargo Revolution is Here!

If 2020 was the “year of the e-bike” in London, 2021 is shaping up to be the “year of the cargo bike.” Our 2021 Cargo Lineup is set, and we’re thrilled to offer many of the world’s leading brands. Supporting these magic machines is a big part of how we help your family leave the car at home more often, and help you have more fun getting from A to B, too!

This special preview is to encourage you to imagine, plan, and pre-order your family cargo bike. We’re expecting the 2021 season to be unlike any other. With extraordinarily tight bottlenecks in manufacturing, and virtually no remaining inventory anywhere in the bike industry, we anticipate availability to be very limited all season. To help ensure you get the bike you’re dreaming of, we created a pre-order system so we can ensure you get the bike that moves your family forward.

Pre-orders (with a 15% deposit) guarantee your bike’s availability for spring delivery, somewhere between late February and early May depending on the brand. We have also expanded our financing offerings from Libro to help make an electric cargo bike affordable for most family budgets, and can help you get started with that program, too. To start your pre-order, send us an email, and we’ll make it as easy as ABC! Deposits are due before December 15 to ensure availability.

For the season ahead, we’ll retain our tried-and-true favourites, including the Babboe Carve, Larry vs Harry e-Bullitt, and Urban Arrow Family, while adding the spectacular Tern GSD and HSD folding cargo bike series to our lineup of available bikes. We’re sure one of these bikes will fit your family’s needs, so start dreaming, or send us a note to book a test ride!
