Best suited to
Families replacing a second car. The GSD carries two children plus groceries in a package that fits in a standard parking space and a regular bike rack.
Standout strength
Compact long-tail design. Can carry 200 kg (rider plus load) in a wheelbase shorter than most bikes.
The main compromise
Expensive. A 400Wh single battery is modest for a 37 kg cargo bike under a full load.

Common questions
How much does the Tern GSD S10 cost in Australia?
The Tern GSD S10 is listed at $7,995 (ride-away). eBikeFinder checks pricing against manufacturer and distributor information, and prices can change with sales and stock. This price was last checked on 2026-08-30.
Is the Tern GSD S10 road legal in Australia?
Yes. The Tern GSD S10 is a 250W pedal-assist e-bike that stops assisting at 25 km/h, which meets the road-legal e-bike standard in every Australian state. Compliance is asserted by the brand rather than independently verified, so confirm the current spec with the seller.
What is the range of the Tern GSD S10?
The Tern GSD S10 has a claimed range of 42 to 85 km from its 400Wh battery. Real-world range is usually lower than the claim, since it depends on assist level, rider weight, terrain and wind. With the optional larger battery setup the brand claims up to 195 km.
What motor does the Tern GSD S10 have?
The Tern GSD S10 uses a Bosch Cargo Line motor, in a mid-drive position, producing 85Nm of torque. Mid-drive motors climb hills better because they work through the bike's gears.
How much does the Tern GSD S10 weigh?
The Tern GSD S10 weighs about 37 kg. That matters if you need to lift it onto a car rack, carry it up stairs, or store it, since e-bikes are heavier than regular bikes because of the motor and battery.
Who sells and backs the Tern GSD S10 in Australia?
The Tern range is distributed in Australia by 99 Bikes and independent dealers. It comes with a 2 years frame, 2 years motor and battery warranty. Buying from a brand with real Australian support matters most when something needs a warranty claim or a service.
