From frame to finished cargo bike: A look behind the scenes

Vom Rahmen zum fertigen Lastenrad: Ein Blick hinter die Kulissen

An e-cargo bike doesn't just happen. It's the result of precise craftsmanship, sophisticated technology, and a whole lot of passion. But how exactly does a simple frame become a fully equipped Simply.Lift STEPS? Join us on the journey – from the first screw to the final test ride!

1. The frame takes shape – Made in Europe

Each of our e-cargo bikes begins its journey in Europe, where our high-quality aluminum frames are manufactured. The process is a science in itself: Aluminum tubes are precisely cut, bent, and welded in several steps to ensure maximum stability. Then it goes to the paint shop, where the frame not only receives its final color but also a protective coating against weather and wear. Only when everything is perfect do the frames make their way to Hamburg.

2. Assembly in Hamburg – this is where things get exciting

As soon as the frames arrive, the most exciting part begins: assembly. In our workshop, we assemble all the components with meticulous attention to detail. From the powerful Shimano motor and suspension fork to the brakes, wheels, and lighting system – precision counts. Every component is carefully installed, tested, and perfectly matched. Because only when everything functions perfectly does a frame become a true Simply.Lift STEPS.

3. Passed the endurance test? Then let's move on!

A bike is only truly good when it performs well in everyday life. That's why every fully assembled Simply.Lift STEPS undergoes extensive testing. Brakes, motor power, lights, gears – we thoroughly examine every function. Minor adjustments? No problem! Only when our team is 100% satisfied do we move on.

4. Your bike, your configuration

Every Simply.Lift STEPS is unique – because you decide which extras are included. Whether it's a luggage rack, child seats, or panniers – your desired accessories are expertly installed during this phase, so your e-cargo bike arrives exactly as you imagined.

5. Ready for the journey – safely packed

To ensure your bike survives transport unscathed, we've developed a special shipping box. This custom-made packaging keeps everything in place and ensures it arrives safely. Because a high-quality cargo bike deserves high-quality packaging!

6. On the way to you!

Now it's time – your Simply.Lift STEPS is ready to go. Whether you're in the city or the country, the bike is ready for your next adventure. All you have to do is unpack it, straighten the handlebars, and ride!

The result is an e-cargo bike that makes your everyday life easier – with great attention to detail, high-quality workmanship, and true craftsmanship. Ready for your Simply.Lift STEPS?
