Metropolises are growing faster, more and more, especially younger people are moving here. The associated challenges in infrastructure, such as congested roads, as well as air pollution, which includes reducing the quality of life and causes stress, require alternatives in individual mobility.

The bicycle manufacturer BERGAMONT, based in St. Pauli / Hamburg, has long been committed to developing products that offer real added value. "We are part of the change in mobility. And help shaping it. "

Based on a reinterpretation of the historic "Long John" cargo bike, which has been on the market as "BERGAMONT E-Cargoville LJ" since model year 2020, is the aim of this work to develop a modular accessory concept for the loading area that will become safe transportation of goods and children.

This thesis (B.A. Industrial Design) was created in 2018 in cooperation with the company BERGAMONT Fahrrad Vertrieb GmbH (BERGAMONT Bicycles), Hamburg, over a period of four months.

I give thanks to all of my colleagues, who were at my side with help and advice.
