The latest bike concept to become a reality thanks to crowd funding is TreGo, a modular design that promises to turn any bicycle into a cargo bike.
While it might look like the marriage between the urban bicycle and a porter’s trolley, the TreGo is full of hidden surprises.
According to its makers, the TReGo has the benefits of a traditional cargo bike, but is smaller, easier to store, multi-functional, more fun to ride and costs less.
If you need to carry something heavy or bulky, you simply replace your bike’s front wheel with the TreGo – a process that takes seconds. Alternatively, Trego can be used as a trailer. However, those of you used to the cargo bikes capable of hauling up to 250 kg may be disappointed by a payload of 25 kg which is paltry by comparison.

Do not do business with the TreGo makers.
They are ruthless money-hungry marketers who will promise you the moon and stars and then fall short on delivery.
I am a victim of their greed.
I would:
A) not recommend the TreGo as it fails to live up to any expectation.
B) Demand a trial period before you actually BUY the TreGo
C) Explore other less expensive options
D) Only buy the TreGo with an unconditional money back guarantee
I will be happy to reply to questions
