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 bicycle enthusiasts in urban areas. The ECF is certainly not for everyone: messengers, couriers, and avid cyclists. It is more of an opportunity for a custom build, rather than something off the shelf. After all, in addition to the adapter kit, you also need a frame, wheels, gears, saddle, handlebars, and all the little extras.

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.
