Cargo Bike

This project began as a graduation assignment for Urban Arrow, who sought a solution for transporting heavy cargo without compromising ride quality. Traditional three-wheeled cargo bikes can carry substantial loads but struggle with cornering at high speeds due to their fixed frame. On the other hand, two-wheeled cargo bikes can navigate turns smoothly by leaning into them, though they often lack the carrying capacity of a three-wheeled bike.

To bridge this gap, I designed a tilting three-wheeled cargo bike that starts in a fixed upright position but can unlock at higher speeds, allowing for easier, more stable cornering. The concept was rigorously tested through multiple prototypes to refine functionality and performance. Although the project didn’t reach commercial production due to high manufacturing costs, it provided valuable insights and potential avenues for future innovation.
