Benno Bikes x Velo Domestique
Your local cargo bike experts, Velo Domestique, are joined by California-based brand Benno, which is showcasing its diverse range of versatile, stylish, and easy-to-ride cargo bikes. Known for its well-engineered, safety-focused, yet good-looking design, Benno makes our favourite mid-tail cargo bikes.
If you would like to book a 1 to 1 test ride, slots are available to book here
Kid Carrying Capabilities
Benno designs its cargo bikes to grow with your family. The innovative rear utility racks can be fitted with two* child seats (for children 9 months to 6 years) or, two* bench-style seat pads with safety rails (for children 5+), or even one of each*. There is plenty of space for passengers, but with racks and panniers equipped, you can carry everything you need for a family adventure day.
*Benno Boost and Benno Remi Demi XL Models are designed to carry two children. The Remi Demi and 46er are designed to carry one child.

Quality and Safety
Founder of Benno Bikes, Benno Benzinger, takes his cargo or 'E-tility' design work very seriously; his eye for detail and consideration of the structural safety of his bikes is exactly why we trust Benno Bikes to look after our customers. This care for safety engineering, backed up with quality Bosch electric components across the range, means your Benno cargo bike will be a reliable part of your family for many years.
For the Planet
We love the Benno cargo bikes for their ability to reduce your need for a car. Removing barriers to people choosing cycling as their mode of transport is at the heart of what we do at Velo Domestique. Discover how easy it could be to replace some of your car journeys with a Benno, enjoy some fresh air, reduce your time stuck in traffic, and do your bit for the planet.

A dog's best friend
Benno cargo bikes are fantastic for transporting your furry friend. Sturdy and sizable front racks allow smaller (under 15kg) dogs to sit on the front of a Benno, whereas the larger rear utility rack can carry much larger dogs with the right set-up. Our cafe dog, Tarlo, is a big fan of the Benno Boost; you can find tips on transporting your dog on our blog here.
Book a 1-1- test ride for hands-on experience of the Benno Bike range
Deciding which cargo bike is best for you is an important decision. Where possible, customers should always test-ride the options they are considering. You will be able to book 1 to 1 test rides with our team of bike experts, including representatives from Benno. This will allow you to try cycling any of the Benno cargo bike options you are interested in and to ask any questions to help inform your decision. Our demo day location is on tarmac but away from the road, meaning riders of all abilities will be comfortable test-riding bikes. Each slot is 20 minutes long, allowing you plenty of time to test ride the Benno range and ask any questions. If you need more time or would just like to turn up and test ride on the day, the whole range will be available from 9:30 ‘til 14:30.
