Our verdict

The Tern HSD P10 fixes the main weakness of the first HSD: it has a 75 Nm motor and a 545 Wh battery, and its rear rack takes 80 kg. It stays small and light enough to live in a flat, but it carries one child, not two.

Pros

  • Compact, folds and stands upright for storage
  • Rear rack rated for 80 kg
  • 75 Nm motor and 545 Wh battery
  • Relatively light for a cargo bike at 27.6 kg

Cons

  • Room for one child only
  • Accessories cost extra
  • Derailleur needs regular care
  • Derailleur drivetrain wears faster under cargo loads

Ideal for…

  • Commuting plus school runs with one child
  • Flats, lifts and small storage spaces

Not recommended if…

  • Two children
  • Bulky cargo
  • You need to carry more than one child

Who it is for

The Tern HSD P10 is for city riders who want one bike for commuting, shopping and one child, and who need to store it indoors. It is about the length of a normal bike, the stem folds and it stands upright on its rear rack, so it fits in lifts and hallways. The rear rack is rated for 80 kg and the bike for 180 kg in total.

Riding and everyday use

The Bosch Performance Line motor with 75 Nm is a clear step up from the first-generation HSD and copes with hills with a child on board. Tern quotes 51 to 121 km with the 545 Wh battery; with a load, plan on around 45 km. At 27.6 kg the bike handles like a normal e-bike, the 20-inch wheels keep the load low, and a suspension fork and hydraulic disc brakes add comfort and control. The 10-speed derailleur is simple to service.

Before you buy

Tern does not publish overall dimensions for the unfolded bike, so measure your storage space against a normal city bike. Child seats, rails and bags are sold separately. For two children, the larger Tern GSD is the right choice.
