Our verdict

The Yuba Kombi EP5 packs a two-child longtail into 1.90 m: a steel frame rated for 200 kg, 24-inch wheels and a Shimano EP5 motor with 60 Nm. It is simple and good value; there is no suspension, and for steep hills with two children a stronger motor is the better choice.

Pros

  • Two-child longtail only 1.90 m long
  • Steel frame rated for 200 kg
  • Good value with a 504 Wh battery
  • Relatively light for a cargo bike at 30 kg

Cons

  • 60 Nm motor is modest for steep hills with two children
  • No suspension
  • Family accessories cost extra
  • Derailleur drivetrain wears faster under cargo loads

Ideal for…

  • Families with one or two children in the city
  • Small flats and limited storage space
  • Families carrying two or three kids
  • Apartments with limited storage space

Not recommended if…

  • Steep hills with a full load
  • Three children

Who it is for

The Yuba Kombi EP5 is for families who want to carry two children on a bike that is no longer than a normal one. It is 1.90 m long and 60 cm wide, fits through doors and can be parked upright on its tail. The rear deck takes two children in seats or one adult passenger, and the steel frame is rated for 200 kg in total.

Riding and everyday use

The Shimano EP5 motor with 60 Nm gives smooth support that is enough for city riding with children and moderate hills. The 504 Wh battery gives around 40 km with a load. The 24-inch wheels are a good compromise between a low load and a smooth ride. The 8-speed derailleur and Magura hydraulic disc brakes are simple and proven.

Before you buy

The bike weighs about 30 kg and has a rigid fork, so comfort depends on the tyres. Seats, rails and footboards are sold separately or in the Family version. If your routes are hilly, compare it with the Spicy Curry and its 85 Nm Bosch motor.
