What is the Bullitt aftermarket?

If you own a Bullitt, you've probably asked: "what box should I get?" or "is there a rain cover for this?"

You just discovered the aftermarket.

What it is

The aftermarket is everything not made by Larry vs Harry. It's the 26 independent makers across 11 countries who build boxes, bags, seats, canopies, wheels, adapters, and modifications specifically for the Bullitt.

These aren't generic bike accessories. They're designed for the Bullitt's specific dimensions, rail system, and mounting points. A Rad3 KidsBox fits the Bullitt — not an Urban Arrow. An YHWHY ISOFIX adapter bolts to the Bullitt's rails — it won't work on other bikes.

Why it exists

The Bullitt was designed with an empty cargo area. That's a feature, not a limitation. Larry vs Harry builds the platform. The aftermarket builds the solutions.

This grew organically over 16+ years. A parent needed a kids box. A courier needed a delivery container. A tinkerer wanted cable steering. They built what they needed and started selling. That became an ecosystem of 26 makers producing 138+ products.

Why it matters

Flexibility. Your needs change. With the Bullitt, you swap the cargo setup — not the bike.

Quality. Aftermarket makers are specialists. Rad3 builds cargo boxes. Fahrer builds soft goods. YHWHY builds adapters. They each do one thing well.

Choice. When multiple makers compete, prices stay fair and quality improves.
