Is it for you?
We have not ridden this bike. This read is based on the spec sheet and Australian seller information, not a test ride.
Best suited to
Families who want a compact longtail that carries two child seats or a big shop and still fits in a garage or on a car rack.
Standout strength
Bosch CX Cargo power on 24in wheels with room for two Yepp child seats and a 60kg rear rack.
The main compromise
No published weight, and the dealer lists two different torque figures for the motor.
Consider something else if
You need a bigger standard battery. The Boost Evo 5 ships with 500Wh; a second battery is optional and sold separately.
Check before you buy
Confirm stock in your colour, the bike's weight and which torque setting the Australian motor ships with.
