Many of the bikes used on city streets appear unsuitable for urban use. cheap mountain bikes grab sales by boasting many gears and suspended forks, but rarely offer luggage racks or mudguards.

Inspired by load-carrying designs from the Netherlands and the strength and simplicity of BMX components, Ben Wilson and Jonathan Pooley set out to build an affordable and practical town bike. A bike for life, not landfill.

The result is the £499 Donky – a compact 20” wheel bike with removable cargo platforms front and rear.
Plans for the design include front and rear child seat options.

What will you carry?
