Utility/Cargo Bikes

Welcome to the next generation of versatile bicycles. These workhorses allow you to use your bike for transporting just about anything - from groceries, to a bulky load of cargo, to the smaller half of your family. Today's utility and cargo bikes are remarkeably easy to maneuver and include a ton of features that will make your ride more convenient and safe. Not convinced? Just drop by for a test ride. You'll be surprised.

The bikes featured below are just a small selection of the utility and cargo bikes we offer. To find out more details about the broad assortment of bicycles we sell, please visit one of our six stores, e-mail us, or give us a call.

 

Introducing Bullitt Cargo Bikes from the land of the cargo bike, Denmark. Similar to the popular bakfiets these bikes have a large platform in front of the rider with the option to add a box. They feature high quality Shimano Alfine parts and most importantly a heat-treated aluminum frame to drastically reduce weight. Capable of carrying loads of nearly 400 pounds, this is the bike that could make owning a car obsolete. Even with all the capacity, the Bullitt is as narrow as a regular bike and easy to navigate through traffic.

The Bullitt Cargo Bike is available with an optional alloy cargo box to keep contents secure and dry. Steering is handled by a heavy duty ball joint.

Madsen Cycles was started with the idea that a bicycle should do more. Whether you want to work more or play more, a Madsen utility bike gets you and your cargo there in style. Tested for up to 600 pounds, the kg271 is as burly as it is elegant. Available in two models: one with a heavy duty rack, and the other with a large bucket.

kg271/RACK – Load it down. Your Madsen Cycle can take it. The kg271/RACK model comes equipped with a reinforced rack with oversized steel tubing. Take your load anywhere for work or for play with the standard SRAM X-5 8-speed components.

kg271/BUCKET – Load up the kids and head to the market. The kg271/BUCKET model will carry your precious cargo and help you complete all your errands in style. The BUCKET comes equipped with a removable seat and two seatbelts. Madsen Cycles Web site
