Cargo bike (electric)

Charlie from Havelock North

For sale: ELECTRIC CARGO BIKE
5000 NZD
We bought this amazing new E-Cargobike 1,5 years ago for 7100 NZD.
Perfect to cruise in town and transport your kids. You don't need that second car.
We sell it because we move back to Belgium.
Available from 1 March.
Great battery / very comfortable to ride.
It seats 2 children, but we've created an extra bench for 1 child. This bench can be easily removed.
We gave it a regular service, so it's in perfect condition (the front wheel has been respoked last month).
It still has got warranty on electronics and mechanicals from manufacturing defect and not wear and tear like consumables (e.g. chain, brake pads).
Battery warranty has expired already (1y).

This is the official description, taken from the original sellers website:
Once moving, one is surprised how simply and dynamically the Rapid is manoeuvred. Hand-built in Germany by an expert team of bike enthusiasts the Rapid boasts fascinating highlights, giving you freedom to live sustainably as well as experiencing unforgettable impressions through its streamlined design. With an extra-stable, yet agile two-wheeled load, the Rapid scores highly with a total weight load of up to 200 kg.
The Electric Rapid is equipped with an variant of the highly acclaimed eZee electric motor. It is not only convincing with its legendary torque (70 Nm), but also through its low wear and tear consumption. The battery compartment is integrated into the cargo area giving the Rapid a low centre of gravity and simple accessibility. The beauty of this battery is that it can be charged almost everywhere, is protected against cold in the winter and can also be operated with an exchange battery.
The safe family tub is designed for transporting children. The stable and surrounding aluminium frame protects the little ones. In the tub seats are installed at the front with your children secured with with Yepp seatbelts. The rain-cover can be added on with a simple click to effectively protect your children from rain, sun and wind.
