Why the Ca Go bike is the ideal women's cargo bike

Practically every bike comes in a men's and a women's version. Why isn't that the case with cargo bikes? Many cargo bikes are bought for the whole family and are therefore often ridden by women, of course. Here we explain why it makes no difference whether a cargo bike is ridden by a man or a woman, and how Ca Go's transport bikes offer clever solutions for the whole family.

Ca Go FS Life – the ultimate family bike

For many families, a cargo bike is an alternative to a second car, or even a complete replacement for the car. The Ca Go FS Life cargo bike was developed specifically for carrying children and can take on practically all the tasks of a car. The crash-tested EPP transport box, the child seats designed specially for the bike and the versatile accessories, such as the innovative All-Weather Top, ensure that children feel comfortable even on long journeys.

Ideal for women and men

On a family bike, many journeys are shared between both parents, so the bike has to suit both tall and short riders. The low step-through (similar to a classic women's bike) on the FS Life makes getting on and off easy. The seat post can be adjusted in a single movement and suits riders between 1.55 metres tall (1.60 with the suspension seat post) and 2 metres tall. The cable-pull steering allows precise control without much effort, and the clever gearing means you can turn the cargo bike practically on the spot without having to turn the handlebars too far, because the front wheel turns further than the handlebars themselves. This keeps the FS Life under control at all times, whether you're just nipping out for milk or the whole load area is packed with kids and clobber for a day out.

Motor, battery and a low centre of gravity

Many smaller or less experienced riders worry about whether they can handle such a large two-wheeled cargo bike. To support all riders, tall or short, strong or less strong, the FS Life is equipped with a powerful electric motor that delivers enough power even with a full load. The hydraulic disc brakes with large brake discs also ensure that the bike comes to a safe, quick stop even with very little effort at the lever. In addition, the battery and the load area are mounted very low down at the front. This gives the bike a very low centre of gravity, so the cargo bike rides stably and safely without needing much effort.

A range of models for every stage of life

If you don't have a family, or you're looking for a cargo bike that can carry heavy loads, Ca Go has the right cargo bike for you too. The Ca Go CS is our nimble multi-purpose bike. With its compact design and the innovative Triple Load Space (made up of the Center Rack in the middle of the frame, the Front Rack, a carrier above the front wheel, and the Rear Rack, a classic carrier above the rear wheel), it is the ideal means of transport for everyday life in the city. As it is barely larger than a normal bike, dense city traffic and the annoying hunt for a parking space are a thing of the past. On the Ca Go CS, the adjustable seat post, a height-adjustable cockpit and geared cable-pull steering make handling child's play for tall and short riders alike.

If you're after a real workhorse, take a look at the FS Vario, which is based on the FS Life and has a large, versatile load area. There is a wide range of accessories for all Ca Go models, so you can personalise your cargo bike even further.
