Cargo Joe

Coming soon - CargoJoe - the world's first production folding cargo bike, representing a partnership between Xtracycle and Tern, a premier folding bike manufacturer. Cargo Joe is a full featured cargo bike that fits where you need it to - it will fit on transit, fit in the back of your Prius, fit in your apartment, or fit in your office. For maximum functionality, with minimum footprint, consider CargoJoe as your next cargo bike.

Cargo Joe Facts and Features

Cargo Joe features a 21-speed Shimano drivetrain, linear-pull brakes, lightweight alloy parts, and a steel front fork. The CargoJoe features Xtracycle's bolt-on FreeRadical Classic, which includes 6000 series alloy cargo racks, our 100% recycled HDPE FlightDeck and quality FreeLoader Cargo bags. Tern and Xtracycle have teamed to offer this complete cargo bike for only $999. Adding a PeaPod III child carrier to the CargoJoe would add $270 to the final cost.

You've found Xtracycle cargo bicycles, which is really the same thing as Xtra-cycle, Xtra Cycle, Extra-cycle or Extracycle but different. Xtracycle's LongTail innovation is a hitchless trailer that evolves the bike rack, bike bag (or pannier or basket), bike trailer, passenger seat, and baby seat into one cargo bike or sport utility bicycle system. With a long wheelbase, balanced center of gravity, and versatile carrying capacity, your Xtracycle LongTail may open the door to car-free or car-lite transportation in your life. Load your LongTail with precious cargo: a week's worth of groceries, or a picnic in your FreeLoader; your children, friends or lovers on the SnapDeck. A WideLoader and LongLoader enable you to carry, yep you guessed it, wide and long loads like surfboards, ladders, instruments or equipment. Be a daily bike commuter. Go out for a ride and end up at work. Be a weekend bicycle tourist. Re-imagine eco tourism: from a simple daytrip to an epic adventure. Travel the globe with the function of a Sport Utility Bike and explore trails, beaches, markets, neighborhoods, and parks. Ride to love. Ride to smile. Ride to feel sexy and healthy and to have fun. Welcome to a life of vitality, simple joys and a brilliant future.
