The Urban Wheelz Cargo was born out of experience and innovation. This Cargo bike had to be better than the rest. Safer, easier to build & maintain, efficient to transport & store, stronger, better brakes & safety belts, more stable and of course easier to ride than the existing cargo bikes in the market
When it comes to the motor and cargo space, the Urban Wheelz Cargo is one of the best available cargo bicycles. The Urban Wheelz Cargo is powered by a strong 36V, 250W Bafang middle motor to ensure a smooth but speedy ride. In addition, the engine provides up to 80Nm of torque to provide the right amount of acceleration when you need it the most. The cargo space of the Urban Wheelz Cargo is designed to be able to transport up to four children. This also means that there is plenty of space to transport groceries or other goods without a problem.
Whenever you want to take your children for a trip, safety of course is one of the biggest concerns. Therefore, we focused on making the cargo box as safe as possible. Cargo bikes tend to have cheap and low quality safety belts. We have invested in high quality and durable belts in order to make sure that your children are securely fastened when you take them for a ride! Additionally, we made sure that the inside of the cargo space has no screws or electronics sticking out, enhancing the safety and aesthetics of the bike.
Braking capabilities are one of the, if not the most important features of any electric bike. Most of the cargo bikes on the market have mechanical brakes with a steel brake cable. This functions well on a regular bicycle but is not efficient enough for a cargo bike, especially if the cargo box is loaded. When using a 3-wheel cargo bike it is extremely important that both front wheels have exactly the same brake pressure, otherwise the cargo bike will tilt left or right severely when using the brakes, this is extremely dangerous. The Urban Wheelz Cargo is equipped with Tektro hydraulic disc brakes including double parking brake. This means that the bike will stop within 5 meters with a total weight of 225kg! Further information regarding the braking can be found below, in the ISO 4210 test results.
The Urban Wheelz Cargo bike has been tested by Extra Energy in Tanna Germany together with 13 other cargo bike brands, the results will be announced at Eurobike 2016 and also published here. Also the bike has been tested by Velotech.de for safety classification. As you can see in the downloads below, the Urban Wheelz Cargo has passed the ISO 4210 requirements regarding brake tests. Even at a total weight of 285 kg the bike stopped in 6,5 meters. Furthermore, the bike stays in a straight line, which is important to know that the bike will behave safely in the case of an emergency stop.
We know that cargo bikes can be very clunky and hard to store. They are mostly stored outside, because they do not fit through any door. Therefore, we came up with our unique storage method for the Urban Wheelz Cargo! First of all the bike is only 76 cm wide, so it fits trough any normal door, than you can easily pick up the back of the bike and tilt it forward, so the nose of the cargo touches the ground. This way you can make the bike take up space vertically instead of horizontally, leaving up a lot free space in garages and storage environments. In total when stored, the bike only takes up 1 m3 of space at a height of 2.06 meters. The bike also comes in a neat transportation box. This box is the biggest colouring picture your children will ever see! A clever and fun way of using packing material!

The idea for the Urban Wheelz Cargo originated from the belief that current cargo bikes are not as functional, comfortable and efficient as they should be. This led the team to develop a new bike. We put so much time and effort into our product, that we feel it is superior to the competition. Hence the previous, we think marketing will not be necessary to sell our product. We focus on the quality of the product and not on the quantity we produce. This is why we do not want to sell as fast as possible, but to sell as much as we can produce with care. This also helped us greatly reduce the sales price to be competitive even with the use of our expensive, high quality parts. In short: We believe that it is possible to be innovative and push the envelope on what is possible while staying competitive, is that not a philosophy to believe in?
Het idee van de Urban Wheelz Cargo kwam voort vanuit de overtuiging dat bakfietsen veel problemen hebben die opgelost kunnen worden met innovatie. Met de hulp van een student van de TU Delft zijn al deze problemen opgelost, resulterende in een veiligere en efficiëntere fiets. We zijn constant bezig met het verbeteren van onze productieprocessen en verfijnen de fiets om u een goede ervaring te kunnen bezorgen!
At Urban Wheelz Cargo we stand by our principals. One of the principals in which we believe, is that quality bikes should be manufactured locally. The reason we believe this is that local production allows you to oversee the processes, keep all processes in check and running optimally. We also think that too many jobs are being shipped to countries overseas. For this reason and due to this belief, we want to support our own community by providing local people with work instead of giving the jobs away to foreign countries outside of Europe.
Here at Urban Wheelz Cargo we believe that a product should have the highest possible quality. To accomplish this, we have decided to incorporate the best parts that we could find, in Urban Wheelz Cargo bicycles to ensure long durability, maximum comfort and optimal functionality. We also decided to use innovative solutions in combination with these high quality parts to make the product as valuable as possible for you as our customer!
We offer you 2 years of warranty on the Urban Wheelz Cargo, including the electronic parts. However, do not forget that a bicycle needs periodic maintenance. It is the owner’s responsibility that the bike gets regular and proper maintenance. This requirement has to be met in order to be eligible for a 2-year warranty. Periodic maintenance can only be done by a professional bicycle mechanic and maintenance invoices must be shown as proof of service.
At Urban Wheelz Cargo we want to make sure our customers can find the right information when they need it. That is why we incorporated the bike manuals below.
