Argo Bikes released an updated kit that can transform any bike into a capable, front-load, cargo bike. With the new Argo Cargo Kit 2.0, just install Argo’s patented BBLink under your bike’s frame and it will turn any bike into a grocery-getting, kid-hauling, furry friend bringer.

Following the success of the original Argo Cargo Kit, the new and improved 2.0 is sure to be better. It is said to be easier to build, and have a more nimble ride, making it quicker and more fun. Not to mention, Argo beefed up the frame with gussets and “fins”, making it stronger without sacrificing comfort.

Will it Fit My Bike?

The Argo Cargo Kit 2.0 is said to fit “10s of millions of bikes”. But to make sure your bike will work, they have a compatibility page on their website to help you figure it out. The 2.0 Kit fits both 68 and 73-mm bottom brackets.

And, for an extra $25, it can be made to fit 83 and 100mm threaded systems, with the Wide BBLink Adaptor. The Cargo Kit 2.0 comes to you 90% assembled, so there is no real downtime before you can start haulin’ stuff around, and #ridebikesbringstuff.

That looks amazing, little note to Argo, some of use are good carpenters, make a bundle without the marine ply box so we can customize.

If I had the space in my garage for that, I would sell my Yuba in a heartbeat to use on a frame I feel comfortable on. This looks sweet.
