Need to pick up groceries for a family of 4? There’s a cargo bike for that.
This Flyer Via Pro’s cargo area gives it the benefits of a front loader (just throw stuff in) while benefiting from the agility & smaller footprint of a long tail.
Try it free via our library in the spring.

We anticipated a slow build to our program.
Instead, it's been a firehose situation with orientations filling faster than we can schedule them!
We're pausing orientations for now (with the exception of those who want to borrow our Lectric Trike).
