“I've had my Carrie for about 2 months and couldn't be happier, riding it 4-5 times a week. Among other things: 1. The suspension is fantastic, even cobblestone streets are manageable. Longer rides (~1-1.5 hours) are easy to handle. Would 100% recommend the extra seat suspension. 2. Bosch motor is a dream. The power delivery is very smooth and predictable. Generally the lower power setting are more than enough to cycle with little effort, but "Turbo" comes in handy when carrying heavier loads. 3. Carrying capacity is great, this bike has largely removed my need for a car within the city. 4. The bike is very easy to handle. It takes maybe 1-2 short rides to get used to, and then you never think about it. 5. My dog loves to ride in the box!”

“The PERFECT bike. Nimble. Compact. Fits in the house without all the faff of locking it up (i use a folding motorbike ramp to get it up the stairs - takes 1.5 minutes). Battery lasts forever. Kids love it. Dog loves it. And i plan on ticking a seat on the back when the older child outgrows the cargo area. Originally wanted to get a Load, but would have to keep it outside (in London). Had Tern FOMO for a bit till i tried one out after buying this, and would never choose that now. Less elegant, bulkier. Didnt fit in the house.”

“We have two children and a dog and so we looked at a lot of front loaders to carry the gang, but we went with the Carrie as it's so easy and nimble to ride. We absolutely love it and so do the kids and Molly the dog never gets left behind! It has transformed life for us in London as we can get everywhere so quickly and it makes the journey really fun. For me I particulary like it as it can be neatly packed up so you can go shopping and around town easily, pop everything in the front and shut it up or keep it open it if you have a large package or scooters! I also like that it's not too heavy and cumbersome so it fits in our house and I can get it up the steps at night or if we're away. It's amazing and I highly recommend it.”
