Your video definitely warmed me up seeing you with bare arms. It's quite cold here in the uk at the moment about 10 degrees. We are forecast snow at the end of November. This cargo bike is something we dont see in the uk. There are plenty of e bikes but no cargo bikes. Another great video Tom.
Hey Tom-Nice review on the Xpedition 2.0! I like the upgrades. Looks like an e-bike version of a stretch limo. I wonder if it will even fit on a bike rack with that long of a wheelbase?
Thank you! Great question. I should have an answer for you shortly. I have a Destination E Bike Rack from Hollywood Racks that supports a wheel base up to 50”. They have another rack that goes to 60”.
Hey Jerome, it does have cruise control. You can activate it while riding by holding the throttle at your desired speed while at the same time holding down the minus button :).
I know the last round of tariffs took effect in the past several months and we’ve definitely seen a jump in prices from many companies. If more tariffs are slapped on, I can absolutely see another price jump. I’d love to see money generated from heavily taxed imports go to supporting more domestic production of components used to make bikes.
I'm gonna let it mellow, not let anxiety control my decisions. If it becomes too expensive to buy I will just ride my normal bike and deal with not having this one. But yeah, good advice if you know for sure you gotta have this thing.
@concretecharlie51 I hope it incentivizes more production to happen in the country. Ebikes and other small electric vehicles are in high demand, that difference of pressures should lead to innovation eventually. Sucks to be in the transition phase waiting for it to happen though.
@tomsgadgetgarage the tarrifs are not good. It will raise prices of everything for US consumers, affecting the poor and middle class the most. Buy before the tarrifs take place!
It would have been better if they had installed at least a 65 mm front suspension fork and at least a 500 watt nominal MID MOTOR on the cargo bike. Everything else is fine. (Personal customization is a given on a large range of bicycles).

Thank you! Haha yah it’s was very hot that day. Thankfully it cooled down. Do you ride your ebike in the snow at all?
Nice review! Thanks for making it!
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching 😊
Love these videos man
Thank you so much! It’s fun making them 😊, especially when riding a style bike I’ve never ridden before.

So the wheelbase is 54.2”.
@@tomsgadgetgarage. Thank you! I thought the wheelbase looked pretty long.
Hey Tom does it have cruise control ?

@ thanks Tom
Anytime 😊
Buy it now before 25% Trump Tariff taxes take effect in 2025.

So apparently everyone who showed up to test this bike was required to take a very specific route. Literally all of them use this same tunnel.
Yah lots of folks took the canal paths. I’m local to the Phoenix area so I went out and took it up the steepest paved road in the Phoenix Metro :).

Do you play mario brothers
