Carry kids, carry kegs. Carry both. Yuba’s new frontloader Supermarché has a two-piece frame that comes apart for storage or shipping, yet keeps the weight of the full bike under 60 pounds. Double redundant cable system and double-ended brake cable too. But why the frontloader? There are two main reasons why folks love front loading cargo bikes: control over the load and an eye on the cargo. The Supermarché is designed with a super low front rack offering an extra low center of gravity resulting in better control over the load; not to mention a huge carrying capacity. Haul up to 220 lbs. in front and 80 lbs. on the rear rack. For folks hauling kids or dogs or other precarious cargo, having a view of the load is essential. You can play referee and provide snacks upon request without stopping.
