Bionicon’s Urban cargo was introduced in Europe earlier in the year, but most of our brethren across the pond are getting their first glimpse of it at Eurobike this week. Here in California there are already some Urban Roads out on the streets, and we’re looking forward to introducing the Urban Cargo at Interbike.

On Road.cc and UrbanVelo.com the Urban Cargo is described as “Part cruiser, part load carrier, part urban machine…” They also show off the Urban Road in a series of close-up photos.

The first Bionicon Urban Road in the U.S. hit the streets this week in Los Angeles. Steve, a long time Bionicon Edison rider took delivery of the first of Bionicon’s new line of commuter bikes over the weekend, and rode the bike just as intended, to commute.

The Urban Road is designed from the ground up to be a simple, straightforward, low-cost urban commuter bike. With a steel frame, no nonsense 1×9 drivetrain, comfortable upright position, bullhorn bars, V-brakes and rack-mount lugs, the Urban Road is an ideal solution to higher gas prices and traffic jams. You don’t want to take your 17 pound race bike to work and back, or your 30 pound mountain bike. This bike is tailor-made for the task.
