Who it is for

The Carqon Cruise Smart E2 is for families who want a roomy, safe box and a smooth ride. The EPP box with Dibond cover measures about 107 × 75 × 50 cm and seats two children with three-point belts, with room for a baby car seat or an extra child seat as accessories. The bike is rated for 200 kg in total.

Riding and everyday use

The Bosch Cargo Line motor with 85 Nm makes starts and hills easy even with a full box. The stepless hub with Gates belt shifts at a standstill and needs almost no maintenance. Tektro four-piston hydraulic brakes and a suspension fork add safety and comfort, and the 20-inch front and 27.5-inch rear wheels roll smoothly. With the 800 Wh battery, expect around 60 km with children on board, enough for several days of school runs.

Before you buy

At 2.6 m long, 75 cm wide and about 50 kg, the Cruise needs ground-level storage and a wide door or gate. Measure your parking spot before buying.
