How much does a cargo bike cost?
Prices vary by model and setup. The bikes page shows Shopify's listed price when available. Call or text to confirm current pricing and availability. Colorado's $225 point-of-sale credit, an income-qualified rebate, a trade-in, and financing may reduce the amount due or spread it over time.
Can I test ride before buying?
Yes. Test rides are free for 30 minutes. Schedule ahead and tell us what you want to compare so the bikes can be ready. You may also visit during open hours.
What brands do you carry?
Tern, Urban Arrow, Xtracycle, Benno, Riese & Müller, Flyer, and Gazelle. Check the bikes page for the models currently listed, then call or text to confirm what's on the floor.
What's the difference between a front-loader, longtail, and compact cargo bike?
A front-loader puts the load in a box between you and the front wheel, where you can see it. A longtail carries passengers or cargo behind the saddle and rides more like a regular bike. A compact cargo bike uses less storage space and carries less. Which one is right depends on what you're carrying and where you park it.
Why should I buy from a local dealer instead of ordering online?
You can compare bikes in one visit, ride before you decide, get help choosing the right setup, and return to the same shop for service after the sale.
How do I finance a cargo bike?
Clean Energy Credit Union makes fixed-rate e-bike loans. Loan terms change with the amount borrowed, so check the lender's site for current numbers. Financing can still be used alongside Colorado's point-of-sale credit and a trade-in.
What is the Colorado e-bike tax credit?
Colorado residents get $225 off most ebikes — no income test, no separate application. Bring proof of a Colorado address and we handle the paperwork at the counter so the discount comes off your total. One discount per resident per calendar year. Couples can each use one.
What is the Colorado e-bike rebate, and is it different?
Different program, much bigger. It's $1,000 for income-qualified Coloradans, plus $300 more on a qualifying cargo bike, and it stacks on top of the $225 discount. You register during a state window and get picked at random — it's a lottery, not first-come. We're on the state's participating-retailer list for both programs. The savings page has the current registration dates.
Can I trade in my old e-bike?
Use the contact form to share a photo and notes about the bike's condition, or visit with the bike. The shop quotes a value only after seeing it.
How much can I save in total?
The $225 Colorado credit can combine with an eligible rebate and a trade-in. Financing changes when you pay, not the purchase price. Your total depends on eligibility, the bike, and the trade-in value; the savings page separates each option.
Which cargo bikes can I bring in for service?
No. The service shop supports cargo bikes purchased from Front Range Cargo Bikes.
How often should I service my cargo bike?
Most riders bring a cargo bike in about once a year. Come in sooner if the brakes, shifting, tires, or motor start behaving differently.
Do you offer loaner bikes during service?
Call before you count on one. We don't promise loaner availability online.
What does a tune-up include?
A safety inspection is $45. Tunes start at $180 and go up with what the bike needs. We look first and tell you what the work will cost before it starts.
How long is a test ride?
About 30 minutes. The route connects with the Goose Creek, Boulder Creek, and Foothills paths, giving you time to compare the motor, handling, starting, and stopping away from a parking lot.
Do I need to arrange it in advance?
You can stop in during open hours. Scheduling ahead lets the shop prepare the model you want to try; some bikes are stored off-site.
Can my kids ride along on the test ride?
Yes. Bring the children who will ride with you and helmets for everyone riding. Testing the passenger setup and handling together helps you compare bikes accurately.
What should I bring to a test ride?
Wear clothes you can pedal in. If you're testing a family cargo bike, bring the kids and their helmets. We'll handle the bike setup and show you the route.
Need an answer for your family or route?
Call during shop hours for a quick answer, or send a message with what you carry, where you ride, and the bikes you are considering.
