Choosing electronics and lighting for your cargo bike
When selecting electronics and lighting for your cargo bike, consider when and where you ride. Bright headlamps and taillights boost visibility in urban darkness, while USB ports and displays give insights into battery level and trip data. Think about brightness and beam pattern to suit your riding style.
Installation and handling
Installing electronics on a cargo bike generally only requires basic tools like Allen keys. Ensure cables are neatly routed and protected from moisture and dirt. Check that lights are securely mounted to avoid shifting during rides, and always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for displays and electrical components.
Maintenance tips
To keep electronics working optimally, clean lenses and contacts regularly with a soft cloth and mild cleaner, avoiding harsh solvents. Inspect screws and mounts during each service, and replace parts if output diminishes. Store your cargo bike indoors or under cover to shield electronics from extreme temperatures.
