Sample Cargo Configurations

Loading your bike

The integrated rack on the BrüHaul accepts Genuine Felt and other pannier 

bags as well as seats for infants and children.  The rack system allows for 

tremendous flexibility in set-up; allowing you freedom in how you configure the 

bike to haul your cargo. To preserve BrüHaul’s handling and stability, follow 

these general guidelines:

1.  Place heavier objects ahead of lighter ones. Concentrating mass towards 

the center of the bike will minimize the impact a load has on BrüHaul 

handling. 

2.  Place objects as low on the bike as you can. Doing so will make it easier 

to stop and start and increase the bike’s stability as you ride – especially at 

low speeds.

3.  Load side-to-side and front-to-back. Attaching two, heavily loaded pannier 

bags to one side of the BrüHaul may make it tip over. Put bags in the 

forward position first, then in the rear positions.
