The TricyLift is a cargo bike aimed at democratizing delivery by bike thanks to its ease of use, efficiency, and genuine comfort. Able to lift loads from the ground thanks to the patented Lift&Go technology, the TricyLift allows to transport of 200kg payload effortlessly and with riding pleasure. The seat of the TricyLift is pendular. That means your arms do not direct the bike, your whole body does. No need to be a bike freak or a fitness pro to drive it. Anyone can do it and once you try it, you surely want to ride it again. This is meant for any professionals, including drivers from the logistics industry, used to driving trucks and vans more than bikes. As the TricyLift was thought and conceived for professionals of the delivery service, it tackles some important issues. The parcels are secured, its compact storage is a plus for real estate issues while its low-tech conception ensures easy maintenance and prevents its users from losing money when the solution can't be ridden on.
