Wheelchair Bike Trailer: Inclusive Cycling for Every Adventure
Freedom of Movement, No Transfers Required
Reclaim the joy of the open road with the Cargo Bike Company Wheelchair Bike Trailer. Designed for families, carers, and inclusive cycling projects, our trailer allows wheelchair users to experience the thrill of cycling without the discomfort or time-consuming nature of transfers.
The passenger remains securely and comfortably in their own manual wheelchair, facing forward to enjoy the view and easily communicate with the rider.
Key Features for Safety & Comfort
Integrated Loading Ramp: Our innovative design features an integral stability leg that lifts the front of the trailer, transforming the rear into a sturdy loading ramp.
Universal Compatibility: With a generous 1000mm x 700mm platform, our trailer accommodates most standard manual wheelchairs. Custom sizes are available upon request.
Secure 4-Point Tie-Down System: Safety is our priority. Every trailer is supplied with four heavy-duty tie-down straps to ensure the wheelchair remains rock-solid throughout the journey.
Hand-Built in the UK: Each trailer is custom-built in our Derbyshire workshop, ensuring the highest standards of British engineering and durability.
