Our verdict
The Creme Happy Wagon is a good-looking longtail with a low rear deck over a 20-inch wheel and a 24-inch front wheel. The Shimano STEPS motor and 5-speed hub suit flat cities; with 60 Nm and five gears it is not a hill climber, and load ratings are not clearly published, so confirm them before you buy.
Pros
- Low rear deck over a 20-inch wheel, stable with children
- Hub gear needs little maintenance
- About 28 kg, light for a longtail
- Hub gears shift at a standstill, handy at traffic lights
- Relatively light for a cargo bike at 28 kg
Cons
- 60 Nm motor and five gears are modest for hills
- Load ratings must be confirmed with the dealer
- No suspension
Ideal for…
- Families with one or two children in flat cities
- Riders who care about design
Not recommended if…
- Hilly areas with a full load
- Buyers who want a large dealer network

Expert overview
AllCargo editorial team ·
Written by the AllCargo editorial team from manufacturer specifications and owner feedback. We did not test-ride this bike. How we review →
Who it is for
The Creme Happy Wagon is for families and city riders who want a longtail that looks like a classic city bike. The long rear deck sits low over a 20-inch wheel and takes up to two child seats, or shopping and bags. Creme does not clearly publish the deck and total weight ratings, so ask the dealer for the figures on the frame label.
Riding and everyday use
The Shimano STEPS E6100 motor with 60 Nm is quiet and natural; it is fine for flat and gently rolling cities, but with two children on steep hills you will need to pedal hard. The 504 Wh battery gives around 40 km with a load. The 5-speed Shimano Nexus hub shifts at a standstill and needs little care, and hydraulic disc brakes stop the bike well.
Before you buy
The bike weighs about 28 kg and has no suspension, so the wide tyres do the comfort work. Creme is a small Polish brand with fewer dealers than the big names, so check where you can get service. Child seats and deck accessories cost extra.

Up to two child seats fit on the rear deck. Ask the dealer for the deck's load rating before carrying older children.
