Gocycle, the British e-bike company founded by a former McLaren car designer, has just taken the wraps off an innovative new electric cargo bike for families. The CX series of longtails are lightweight and foldable, as you’d expect from Gocycle, with an intriguing new handlebar on the CX Plus model that can be quickly adapted for rider comfort.
” The rear wooden deck on the CXi and CX Plus are compatible with MIK accessories, including child seats, pet carriers, panniers, and, eventually, an F1-inspired halo system from Gocycle to protect kids. As for the rest of the specs, the frame is a mix of alloy in front and carbon fiber in the rear. There’s also a carbon fiber wheel and fork and a 375Wh removable battery that charges in 3.5 hours with a claimed “up to 80km ” range from the front-hub motor.
