Three-wheel bicycle

Parents with wheels?

Yes, that's us, the parents with wheels, the ones who, despite everything, keep pedalling. Whether it's a simple bike or a cargo bike, the important thing is not to abandon a more ecological and healthy lifestyle, especially when they, our children, are around. That is why we decided to take a short trip into the world of transporting children on two or more wheels.
Because cycling alone is fun, but in company it is even more so!

Let's start with the most common seat, the kind you see around. Babies can start using it when they are able to sit upright (8-9 months). I front seats are most preferred by children: they have a better view of the route and it is more convenient for the parent to have the little one under control.
The child grows up and is no longer a bundle. The front seat becomes uncomfortable, dangerous because of the possibility that the little one can get his feet in the front wheel. So here is a seat at rear butt, up to 25 kg load. Obviously, no matter how well the child seat is secured, the risk margin is always higher than with the less common trolley. Furthermore, it is not permitted to transport two children on a two-wheeled bicycle unless it has been specially designed for that purpose. Read more on the subject here.

At this point one could use a trolley, it is a two-wheel trailer which can be attached to your bike via a solid and secure fastening system, the best have either a clamp that anchors to the rear dropout or an anchoring system that attaches together with the quick release of the wheel.

However, if you want greater security and stability, the choice falls to a three-wheel bike (sturdier and safer) there are two ways: the classic cargo bikes or the innovative TAGA BIKE, which was created precisely with the aim of meeting the needs of pedal-powered parents.

Le cargo bikes are three-wheel bicycles designed for transporting weights (goods) and only later adapted for transporting children. They are very popular in Denmark and the Netherlands, and on the rise here too. The capacity of a cargo bike is up to 150 kg. Your children can sit on two benches strapped in. There is no lack of accessories for every occasion and need: from the sun canopy to the rear carrier, from the non-slip mat to the entrance step. If, on the other hand, you want the real difference of a three-wheeled bike there is the TAGA BIKE, in effect a cargo bike, created exclusively around the child and the family and for this reason with high standards of comfort and safety.

The TAGA BIKE best known offers the possibility of having a bike and pushchair in one. But that is not all. The Taga is also a three-wheel bike in a Family Bikean exceptional cargo bike, different from other bulkier and heavier bikes, precisely because it is designed for the family. Light, manoeuvrable, slim and foldable, it can be carried in the car and in any means of transport. And it doesn't lack safety: TAGA BIKE has exceeded the most stringent safety standards for bicycles and pushchairs in the European Community, USA, Australia. In addition, features such as the internal gear hub and the fully enclosed chain cover allow you to focus on your children, not thinking about TAGA.
