Innovative suspension for cargo and urban mobility bikes

Innovative, or perhaps better said, alternative suspensions for cargo and urban mobility bikes. Yes, because when we talk about suspension, the classic suspension fork or the 'spring' in the frame always comes to mind; and when we go to a shop to buy a bike, specifically a Cargo or urban mobility bike, not visibly seeing the suspension, the question arises.

 

Why don't cargo or urban mobility bikes have suspension like all other bikes? 

Every time we look to buy a cargo bike, or an urban mobility bike, also called a city bike, we ask ourselves the same question: But don't these bikes have shock absorbers or suspension? 

We are used to seeing something that gives us the idea of comfort and safetyand when we do not see it so clearly, doubts and suspicions arise.
The reason why, in these bikes in detail, the suspension is not so obvious lies behind a 'innovative' element we never imagined.

No springs but tyres: the innovative suspension for
Cargo and urban mobility bikes

Adjustable suspensions are the most visible, but they are the ones that do not need constant setting as the use of the bike changes. We generally see them mounted on dirt bikes, precisely because their use, depending on the load, often remains the same. Can we call them innovative suspension for cargo and urban mobility bikes?

 Innovative, but above all alternative, because cargo or urban mobility bikesdo not prefer this type of system. Because we use them for shopping, taking the child to school or loading a heavy box. So many operations, for so many different loads, involving so many different settings for each load. An overly technical and impractical operation which has guided manufacturing companies towards the choice of a tyre capable of performing specific functions.

 

Specific and dedicated tyres as a suspension system

Cargo and modular bikes, such as the Ahooga ModularThey are fitted with specific tyres that can adapt to the load and the road surface and offer a unique cushioning effect.

Tyres like those of the Schwalbe, the Big Appledesigned specifically to absorb impacts, avoid punctures, and adapt to the road surface. They are made with specific compounds that reduce impact and promote smoother gliding.
