VILLETTE Villette Longtail, mid-motor e-bike transport 13Ah 7sp black

**A longtail is a transport bike with an extra-long rear frame and an extra-long luggage carrier** A large basket, supersize bicycle bags, or two child seats can be mounted on this. Footrests are included in the delivery. The cage that can be mounted on the luggage carrier is an option. Child seats and bicycle bags are not included. More and more people are choosing a longtail instead of a traditional cargo bike because a longtail is more maneuverable, lighter, and smaller. Thanks to the long luggage carrier, a lot can still be transported with it. This depends on the accessories you screw onto it. The fact that a cargo bike is unfortunately almost impossible to insure in large cities is also a valid reason to choose this type of bicycle. **Mid-motor and 7 gears** The Villette Longtail electric transport bike is equipped with a Bafang M410 mid-motor with 80 Nm of torque. The 13 Ah battery is placed behind the frame tube. This ensures that the e-bike's center of gravity is perfectly in the middle. This way, you can carry a considerable weight on both the front carrier and the super-long rear carrier without affecting the bike's balance. Because the Longtail has a Shimano Altus derailleur system with 7 gears, starting off with a full load or tackling a slope should not be a problem. With a low gear and a high pedal assist setting, you can easily get going with this Longtail e-bike. Feel free to shift to a higher gear when conditions allow. If necessary, you can stop quickly even with a full load. The hydraulic disc brakes front and rear ensure this. You can also use them to gently brake before entering a corner at speed. The lighting is connected to the battery and can be switched on and off with buttons on the LCD display. **Low center of gravity** Because the Longtail is often used for transporting heavier loads, 24-inch wheels are fitted. These are extra sturdy. The loading height and center of gravity are also relatively low as a result. With a width of almost 6 cm, the balloon tires offer good grip on the road and provide the necessary riding comfort. A long seat post and high handlebars, adjustable forwards and backwards, allow many riders to find an optimal seating position on this electric transport bike. The frame, rigid front fork, seat post, and handlebars are all made of an aluminum alloy to keep the bike's own weight as low as possible. The front carrier can carry 15 kg, and the rear carrier can carry 50 kg. The rear carrier is equipped with small footrests on both sides that serve as footrests.
