Copenhagen Workshop · Since 2019

Cargo bikes built
for your life

Every Lumen starts as a conversation. We design, weld, and assemble each bike by hand in our Copenhagen workshop — tailored to how you move, what you carry, and where you ride.

Three principles guide every build

We don't build for the showroom. We build for the streets of Copenhagen — and wherever life takes you.

Fit for Purpose

No two riders are alike. We measure, discuss, and prototype until the geometry matches your body, your cargo, and your daily route.

Materials That Last

Columbus Life tubing, stainless hardware, powder coat inside and out. Every component chosen to survive Danish winters and decades of use.

Service for Life

Your Lumen leaves with a 10-year frame warranty and lifetime access to our workshop. We're here for every adjustment, repair, and upgrade.

From conversation to Copenhagen streets

Four steps. Zero compromise. Your bike ships ready to ride.

Consultation

We meet — in our workshop or via video — to understand your routes, loads, and preferences. You'll leave with a geometry sheet and build spec.

Design & Quote

We model your frame in CAD, select components, and present a fixed price. No surprises. Approve the render, and we order tubing.

Hand-Built in Copenhagen

Each frame is mitered, TIG-welded, heat-treated, and powder-coated in our workshop. Assembly takes two weeks — one mechanic, one bike.

Delivery & First Ride

We hand over your Lumen with a fit session, maintenance walkthrough, and your first service booked. Then you ride.

Three platforms. Infinite configurations.

Every model is a foundation. You choose drivetrain, assist, colors, and cargo layout.

Built for real lives

Mette Andersen

Copenhagen, 2 kids

"The Long replaced our second car. School runs, grocery hauls, weekend trips to the summer house — it handles all of it. The linked steering took one ride to feel natural."

Frederiksberg, photographer

"I needed something that fits in my building's elevator but carries lighting kits. The Compact with a custom rack system is perfect. The ride quality surprises me every time."

Sofie Hansen

Aarhus, bakery owner

"Delivering 80 kg of sourdough three times a week. The Front's platform is rock solid at speed, and the Bosch motor makes hills feel flat. Best business investment I've made."
