Our verdict
The Yuba FastRack is a clever compact hauler: its rear rack folds out into different positions for two children, a passenger or wide cargo, and a front rack is included. With 20-inch wheels, a suspension fork and a fair price it is very practical, but it is heavy for its size and the 60 Nm motor is modest on steep hills.
Pros
- Folding rear rack for passengers or wide cargo
- Front rack included, suspension fork
- Stores upright with a folding handlebar
Cons
- About 34.5 kg, heavy for its size
- 60 Nm motor is modest on steep hills
- Family accessories cost extra
- Derailleur drivetrain wears faster under cargo loads
Ideal for…
- Families with one or two children and changing loads
- Riders with limited storage space
- Families carrying two or three kids
- Apartments with limited storage space
Not recommended if…
- Steep hills with a full load
- Riders who must carry the bike up stairs

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 Yuba FastRack is for families and city riders who carry something different every day. The rear rack has folding side wings: closed, it is a narrow seat for two children or one passenger; opened, it becomes a wide platform for boxes and bags. A frame-mounted front rack is included. The bike is 1.90 m long and rated for 200 kg in total.
Riding and everyday use
The 20-inch wheels keep the load low and make the bike easy to balance at walking pace, and the suspension fork takes the edge off rough streets. The Shimano E7000 motor with 60 Nm gives natural support that is enough for city hills with a moderate load. With the 500 Wh battery, around 40 km with a load is realistic. A 10-speed derailleur and Magura hydraulic disc brakes complete the package.
Before you buy
At about 34.5 kg the FastRack is heavy for a compact bike, so plan for ground-level parking; it can be stored upright and the handlebar folds to save space. Child seats and cushions are sold separately or in the Family version. Ask the dealer for the load limit of each rack position.
