We're researching electric #cargoBikes for nursery and grocery trips. Can you help?
The bike should:
• manage semi-hilly area near #Sheffield.
• be good for novice riders, ideally with easy adjustments between riders.
• be compatible with a toddler and a medium-sized grocery shop.
• store small or outside well (no garage).
• be compatible with UK purchasing, weather, and infrastructure.
We're currently considering the Tern HSD P5i, but very happy to hear any recommendations or advice. 🧑🧑🧒🚲🔌
@chicgeek we’ve got a Riese & Müller Multitonker since September 2025 (3000 miles already!) and are very happy with it.
We’re in Bristol (not very flat!), with a 6yo and 5yo, to give you an idea of its usage.
It’s not our first e-Bike either (we had a Radpower Radwagon 4, and an O2 feel before). I’d say it’s the best we had so far
@loicfaugeron We're not too different in height, though we're not tall. I saw one review that mentioned it was better for taller people, so I'm wondering how you fared.
Thank you kindly for answering a stranger's questions, by the way. I appreciate it!
@chicgeek ha! Yeah, I'm 1m80.
The frame is low, the seat can be adjusted without tools, and (to be checked!) so is the handle.
This website bellow says it fits between 1m50 and 2m00 people, but I'd expect it's more comfortable if your height is in the middle than near the end pf that range
