The Scandinavian Sidecar is a vehicle, developed by Eva Lindemark and Torben Skov Andersen, that is the result of their original desire to create a bicycle sidecar inspired by classic early 1900s designs. This vehicle however is designed keeping families and parents in mind.
This vehicle has a composite body crafted from either carbon fiber or fiberglass. Its body base includes snow runners sized to fit comfortably onto cross-country ski tracks. A pulk/sled harness easily secures to the sidecar body, allowing you to pull a child or two across the snow. Two small children weighing up to 45 kg can comfortably sit on the Scandinavian Sidecar's artificial leather folding seat.
This vehicle offers a sleek and modern yet vintage twist on the sidecar, and its versatility makes it a great fit for a variety of uses particularly in snow-heavy climates.
