TReGo is a new hybrid bike concept that transforms nearly any adult bike into a handy towable cart, perfect for lugging around items that are too heavy for a backpack. An aluminum rack attaches to the front of the bike via a "fast connector," which requires no tools. The bike's detachable trolley can hold up to 40 pounds, making for the perfect companion for grocery shopping or picnics in the park.

The design team behind TReGo is also exploring the possibility of other alternative detachable trolleys, like [front-facing baby carriers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kazam-co-pilot-bike-trailer), or trolleys that can handle up to 90 pounds. The tilted wheels add to a more agile ride while its hydraulic brakes ensure safety and comfort.

Hybrid bike concepts speak to environmentally conscious commuters, as well as city dwellers who are seeking to more health and eco-friendly alternatives to commuting.
