Electric Cargo Bike Reviews

These electric bikes are usually longer and lower to the ground, providing easier loading of cargo and more cargo space than a standard city ebike. Cargo ebikes tend to have powerful motors, optional rack accessories for transporting gear or additional passengers (including children), and they usually only come in one frame size but offer adjustable seat, stem, and handlebar to fit a wide range of riders.
