The Stayer CarryON is a cargo conversion kit from the London-based brand that allows users to transform their old 26er into a far more useful bike. For more on this cargo conversion kit, read on below…

Craig Lambard from Stayer Cycles has a new video focusing on the creation and development of the Stayer CarryON—a new offering from the small, London-based brand that can transform old steel 26″ mountain bike frames into cargo-capable machines. Inspired by similar designs from Bilenky Bikes in Philadelphia, the CarryON cargo conversion is a limited offering from Stayer. Spurred on by the upcoming Cargo Fest in April of 2026, they’re currently taking pre-orders on this fillet-brazed front end that includes everything one might need to turn an old, less valuable bike into one that’s ready for grocery runs, errands, and kid hauling.

The kit costs £1,395 ($1,850) and includes labor. As it stands, this is solely available to those who can provide a donor bike to the Stayer shop in London. Though the cost of the kit is a tough sell when something like an Omnium cargo frameset costs less, it’s nice to see a small brand thinking of new and interesting ways to recycle and reuse older bikes. If it gets a dormant, barely used 26er back into daily rotation instead of a new bike, that seems like a great use of existing parts.
