About

Sanka Cycle offers an alternative to the second car in rural and suburban areas. It is a comfortable and safe cargo bike, designed to be used where the infrastructure is not suitable for bicycles (for example, where there are no cycle paths). Sanka is part of the ongoing ‘cycling revolution’ and aims to make it possible for people to cycle outside the city. Being active to combat sedentary lifestyles, spending less and reducing the environmental impact of travel should be accessible to everyone. With its quadricycle cargo bike, Sanka is targeting the segment of small cars used for daily travel, of which 500,000 are sold every year in France, where 35% of households own more than two cars.
