Cycling has always been synonymous with freedom, but that freedom often ends when you need to transport something. Bags swing around, baskets rattle, and not every bike has a fixed luggage rack. The German design company WN Products, known for its innovative bicycle solutions under the FLECTR brand, aims to change that. With the CargoMate, FLECTR presents a universal transport system for modern cyclists who seek uncompromising functionality.

At the heart of the CargoMate is a simple yet revolutionary concept: a luggage rack that fits every bike. Whether it's a gravel bike, e-bike, city bike, or hardtail, the universal mounting system ensures perfect compatibility. No tools, no effort, no fixed components required. Installation takes only 30 seconds, and removal is just as quick. 

This flexibility changes not only everyday life but also our expectations of bicycle accessories. The CargoMate adapts to different bikes, needs, and lifestyles, making carrying luggage as natural as cycling itself.

Thoughtful design meets everyday practicality

The CargoMate's design bears FLECTR's unmistakable signature: minimalist, functional, and elegant. Its one-piece stainless steel frame ensures high stability and low weight. Well-placed eyelets and a clever quick-release system make stowing and securing a variety of loads easy. 

Whether you need to secure a spontaneous shopping haul, camera equipment, or a picnic in the park, the load securing system can be flexibly adjusted. No fiddling, no improvising. 

Every detail is perfect: the weatherproof, UV-resistant tarpaulin cover; the precise frame design that optimally distributes weight; and its ease of use in everyday life. The CargoMate elegantly solves an everyday problem, and that is precisely where its strength lies. With twelve variants and individual color options, the CargoMate fits harmoniously into any bicycle concept. 

"In addition to its simple installation, the CargoMate stands out with its versatile, time-saving strap system and fresh look with textile components," says Jörg Neugebauer, one of the CargoMate's two designers.

Durability as a principle of sustainability

In an industry where accessories often have a short lifespan, the CargoMate focuses on sustainability through durability. Made of stainless steel, it resists corrosion, can carry heavy loads, and is fully recyclable at the end of its service life. The tarpaulin surface is weather- and UV-resistant for years of use without losing quality. 

FLECTR follows a philosophy that is becoming increasingly important in urban mobility: good design leads to less waste. Rather than creating disposable products, the company focuses on durable quality — products that outlast several bikes and still look good.

With a price tag of €99, the CargoMate is not aimed at a niche market but at all cyclists who want a smarter, simpler, and more attractive transportation accessory. Commuters, weekend cyclists, couriers, and touring enthusiasts all benefit from its universal application and tool-free handling.
