Cargo bike: the transport of tomorrow

Cargo bike or cargobike: a transport bike that changes life!

The Electrically Assisted Cargo Bike (VCAE) is: a carrier bike par excellence. It can carry large loads and large volumes. Through our personal experience, we have tested numerous utility cargo bikes. We realized the absence of a bi or tricycle adapted to the transport of large loads. The VUF concept makes it possible to meet three challenges:

Bypass accessibility constraints in the city center:

In the city, and especially during peak hours, it is very difficult to travel freely and quickly in a vehicle. The electrically-assisted Cargo Bike makes it possible to overcome this problem.The VAE makes it enormously easier to travel in the city, whether for package delivery, waste collection or even street marketing operations!

Reduce air and noise pollution

It's no surprise to anyone, but electric-assist cargo bikes emit a lot less carbon emissions than a motorized vehicle. Of course, noise pollution is also reduced. Choosing a cargo bike means choosing to move efficiently while preserving the environment.

Decrease transport costs.

Finally, from a financial point of view, choosing a VCAE is very advantageous for the company. Indeed, the VCAE does not fall into the category of mopeds, and therefore, it does not require the wearing of a helmet, a registration or the subscription of insurance. In addition, unlike a motorized vehicle: an electrically assisted cargo bike does not generate costs related to fuel and fines.

Cargo bike: what sensations for the cyclist and the passengers?

The center of gravity of a cargobike is very low, which is what allows the rider to feel the overall weight and what makes this bike very maneuverable.

From the very first attempts, the cyclist will quickly be comfortable sneaking around, turning, etc. Little passengers are generally delighted, comfortable and often admired by passers-by!

Beyond the ease of use of the bike, it allows you to carry out a sporting activity on each of your trips. In fact, despite the electric assistance, you still have to pedal in order to make the bike move forward! A good way to stay in shape physically.

In addition, the cargo bike is completely modular and can meet different needs depending on the type of professional. Today, the electric cargo bike is a real alternative to motorized vehicles.

At VUF Bikes, we have adopted this mode of transport.
