Try out a cargo bike from Urban Arrow with electric assistance and 8 gears integrated into the hub. It has a sealed cargo box. The dimensions (taken from the bottom of the box) are 66 x 53 cm (non-rectangular shape), with a capacity of 350 litres. The box can support a maximum weight of 150 kg. It is equipped with a lock that secures the rear wheel. Other accessories (padlocks, helmets, etc.) can also be provided.
This bike can be ridden like a classic bike. However, it takes some time to get used to the unusual size of the bike (due to the box at the front).
The Bike 43 bicycle is equipped with 2 child seats behind the rider (20 and 25 kg max.). It rides like a normal bike because the overall length of the bike is the same as any other bike. This bike is equipped with a 250 W Shimano E-Shift Performance motor (automatic gear change) and a 500 W battery. The maximum speed is 25 km/h, the range is variable depending on the load on the bike (total weight of the users) and the riding style.
Take advantage of the Cairgo Bike project in the Brussels municipalities and try it out for free for 2 weeks.
