We have selected a set of cargo bikes that cover all commuting needs.
In Central Bike Barcelona we are specialists in cargo bikes with electric assistance. We know they are the future and that is why we have firmly committed to them.
We are the first Riese & Müller cargo hub in Spain.
WHY BUY A CARGO BIKE?
Currently, Cargo Bikes are revolutionizing urban mobility throughout Europe, especially in northern countries. With or without electric pedal assistance, they are an ecological, simple, and convenient way to get around the city, saving time and money while avoiding annoying traffic jams.
These are electric bicycles with two, three, or four wheels that have a large cargo area at the front, designed to comfortably transport heavy or not-so-heavy loads.
These cargo bikes have evolved to the point where they are now completely safe for transporting children in the front. Even major courier companies have started incorporating them for city deliveries, as some of these Cargo Bikes can support up to 180kg.
With the weight at the front, the bicycle becomes more manageable and agile, while allowing you to keep the load visually controlled at all times.
VARIETY OF CARGO BIKES
There is a large variety of electric cargo bikes that, thanks to their high-quality motors and batteries, allow you to reach areas where vehicles cannot go, such as pedestrian zones or narrow streets in the city center.
With Cargo Bikes, you save on fuel and time while contributing to the planet’s sustainability by reducing CO2 emissions in your city. With a long range of up to 65 km, you can go as far as you want.
They are becoming increasingly popular in our country, with their presence in major cities like Barcelona, Madrid, and even Málaga growing exponentially in recent years.
Explore, discover, live, and breathe easy with cargo bikes. Take them wherever you want to go, because the future requires smart, bold, and responsible decisions.
Everything you ever wanted to know about cargo bikes
What advantages does a cargo bike offer over a car for urban deliveries?
Cargo bikes allow you to transport goods, children, or tools without emitting CO₂, while avoiding traffic jams and reducing costs such as fuel, taxes, and parking. They can also access restricted or pedestrian zones more easily than motor vehicles. At an operational level, this translates into faster deliveries and greater visibility in urban areas, projecting an image of sustainable and accessible service.
What is the typical load capacity of cargo bikes?
The front box is generous and sturdy, designed to carry everything from groceries to several children or bulky parcels. While the exact figures depend on the model, the reinforced structure of these bikes can safely support significant loads. Thanks to the electric motor, only minimal effort is required, even when fully loaded.
Are cargo bikes legal to ride in the city?
Yes. They are classified as electric bikes as long as they comply with regulations (motor ≤250 W and assistance up to 25 km/h). They can be ridden on cycle lanes, streets, and urban roads without the need for registration or additional insurance. It is important to adapt your riding to their size and weight, while respecting pedestrians and traffic regulations.
What accessories can I add to a cargo bike?
You can add elements such as lockable boxes, child seats, rain covers, side panniers, additional lights, and dedicated fastening systems depending on your needs. The modular design of these bikes makes them easy to adapt to different scenarios, from families to delivery businesses. Central Bike Barcelona offers advice and customisation for every requirement, allowing each bike to be configured according to the intended use.
