Muli-Cycles hand-builds its compact cargo bike in the centre of Cologne, mixing skilled manual work with welding robots and a stated commitment to fair, local production. The clever foldable front basket collapses so the bike fits in a lift, a hallway or even a car boot — a cargo bike for people short on space.
The Red Dot-award-winning design proves European makers can be both small-batch and seriously innovative, with the service and spare parts to match.
