Find your bike

Here's a selection of bikes able to tow our bike trailers

Stability and safety

We design specific bicycle hitches that are attached close to the rear wheel axle of suitable bikes.
The hitches are fixed to the frame using existing holes (mudguards, brake callipers, luggage racks) or with specific clamps.

About the frame hitch


In order to adapt to the different geometries of bicycle frames, we have developed a frame hitch. Its arms are adjustable to match the frame of the bike.

To use it you must ensure that you have room to install the clamps. Minimum of 3 clamps installed as far as possible from each other. Different sizes (12 and 18 mm) are supplied. 24 mm on request. Be aware of the placement of the brake caliper, cables or the kickstand when installing the hitch.

The ball must be at a height of ~360 mm from the ground and within 390 mm of the rearmost point of the bike.

As an option, we offer a suitable bikestand that can be attached directly to the frame hitch.

What is the perfect bike for your activity ? 

BicyLift and Runner are professional trailers and require professional quality bikes for a safe and reliable use 

We do not impose a model but recommend parameters that we consider important:  

Robustness

Forget the racing bike, prefer a more robust frame and equipment (wheels, tires, transmissions,...)

Braking capacity  

For the trailer brakes to activate, the bicycle brakes must work under all conditions. Therefore, hydraulic disc brakes are recommended.

Transmission 

Gear hubs allow you to change gears when stationary.
Derailleurs are easier to repair.

Electric assistance

Unless you are in a flat area and do not tow heavy loads, the use of an electric-assisted bicycle seems essential. Various types of assistance exist. We recommend mid-motors with a torque of at least 80Nm (Bosch Performance CX, Bosch Cargo Line, Shimano step8000, Shimano EP800, Brose drive S).    

Load capacity

Depending on your activity, you will have a greater or lesser interest in being able to carry goods on the bike in addition to loading the trailer. Combined with the delivery of a pallet, you could thus ensure some additional poses of packages on the way.

Stability when standing still

During deliveries, the bike is immobilized at every stop. That's why we recommend a bike with a solid bike stand, preferably on the back of the bike for more stability when our trailers are attached.

For stability, thus safety. With this configuration, the trailers cannot tip the bike over in curves or when the bike brakes. When the trailers are attached to the seatpost, it is way easier to lose balance. Seatposts are also not designed to pull heavy loads.

Our hitches are designed to ensure the safety of the rider in the event of a crash with a vehicle coming from behind. The hitch is designed to break in order to preserve the bike and protect the rider.

FlexiModal is involved in the redaction of the French norm for cargo bikes and trailers. 

FlexiModal doesn't sell bikes except its own TricyLift which already include the principle of the BicyLift.

You can buy a bike able to pull our trailer at a bike shop or from one of our retailers close to you.
