The ultimate guide to finding your city partner
Cargo bikes aren’t just a means of transport; they embody a sustainable and highly practical lifestyle! With so many models to choose from, it can seem difficult to find the one that’s just right for you. In this guide, we offer an overview of the three types: Compact, Longtail, and Frontloader to help you find the bike that will become your everyday companion.
Compact cargo bikes: nimble and urban-friendly
Compact cargo bikes are your best allies for getting around and parking in the city. If you don’t have much space to store your bike but need to transport your groceries, your belongings, and up to 2 children, choose a compact model. With their rear-loading space, these bikes are designed to be handy and space-saving. Models like the Yuba FastRack can even be stored vertically, which is perfect for fitting it in less than 1 square metre or taking it in an elevator! Bonus: These bikes fit easily on most hitch bike racks, making them perfect for vacations.
Yuba Models: FastRack, Kombi, Kombi E5, and Kombi E6
Longtail Cargo Bikes: Spacious and Easy to Ride
Do you want to fully embrace the cargo experience and carry even more every day? The longtail will definitely meet your expectations! With an extended rear rack, these models can accommodate up to 3 kids and a lot of cargo. Yuba’s bestseller, the Spicy Curry, offers unmatched stability thanks to its small rear wheel and Stay Steady Technology frame geometry. If you’re looking for maximum space to carry up to 250 kg, the Mundo with its sturdy frame and 26″ wheels will satisfy you! Enough to make your car jealous.

Frontloader Cargo Bikes: Great Versatility
Are you looking for a versatile bike? Capable of carrying very large loads while also being able to transport passengers easily? The frontloader is for you! With a large space in the front, you can carry all sorts of cargo and easily access your belongings while chatting with your passengers. These slightly bulkier bikes require more storage space than compact or longtail models. The Yuba Supercargo and Supercargo CL are highly adaptable, with a large platform or passenger box—you decide! Whether it’s for groceries, pets, furniture, or your entire little tribe, these bikes are ready for anything and are perfect for personal or professional use.
