Semi-folding cargo e-bike with NuVinci smooth shifting
While many cargo-oriented bicycles tend to use components from conventional bicycles, GSD goes a step further with some of its most robust components. Examples include Magura 4-piston disc brakes, custom 2.4" Schwalbe Super Moto-X tires, Boost fixed axle hubs, and custom 36mm wide dual rims.
With the Bosch electric drive, the 20" wheels move as fast as the 700c, but the smaller wheels make acceleration sharper. The smaller wheels also allowed us to maximize cargo capacity. Best of all, we put all these pros into a model the size of a standard city bike."
"The typical e-bike on the market today looks basically like a standard bike with a motor and battery attached," says Josh Hon, Tern team captain. "This means that any meaningful compromises that were made in the design of a vehicle designed to be powered by human power are carried over to electric bikes, where they lose their original intent. The GSD is the result of a fundamental insight: when designing an electric bicycle, there is no need to compromise on key functional elements such as comfort and load volume in order to optimise speed
Portability, storability
Although the GSD can carry extremely large loads, it has no problem in dealing with busy urban environments. Since it is no longer than a standard bicycle, it fits on standard racks on cars and buses. What's more, it can be folded down to an even smaller size using the off-road patented folding mechanism. Just three seconds are needed to reduce the height by 1/3 and the width by 40%. The resulting dimensions thus allow the bike to be transported INSIDE mid-sized cars such as the VW Touran. Thanks to the specially designed carrier, the GSD can be transported vertically even in a small lift.In short, the Tern GSD is your future second or even only family car.
