Elephant Cargo Fork

News October 2025

We're back from the BESPOKED trade fair and raring to go! Now all we need is the prototype of the down tube clamp. We've been waiting for it for the last four weeks... as soon as the clamp arrives and everything fits, we should be able to start pre-sales in the next 4-8 weeks. We will let you know in good time, of course!

Oh, and we are now pretty sure that the price will be €650, including German tax, for the set with fork. So it depends a little on your location.

Born As An Idea

Limited space, expensive space. The Elephant Cargo Fork (ECF) is the result of a product design bachelor’s degree in cargo transport by bicycle in urban areas, densely populated and hardly any open space. On this basis, a compact adapter solution for the own, previous bike was created. This avoids the double burden, financial and spatial. Through the versatile combination of several usage scenarios: the cargo bike in the commuter bike.

Individually

For bike enthusiasts in urban surroundings. Surely the ECF is not everyones piece: messengers, couriers, loving biker dudes and dudines. It’s more likely to be a possibility for a custom build, nothing standard. The kit also needs a frame, wheels, shifting, saddle, bars and all the tiny bits. Remaining keeps: Does this even fit? You probably have to have a certain passion for bikes – or you just have the right mechanic on hand. It quite a big modification on your bike, changing the fork like this. So if you’re missing the right skill, just get some help of a professional.

Versatile

Thanks the foldable platform, the bike is as wide as a standard bicycle and even so does fit a standard 600x400mm Eurobox. With many mounting points for tensioners you can fit a big variety of package-sizes. On top, folded up two smaller commuter bags can be attached to it. So all purposes are getting served.
