BABBOE
SLIM MOUNTAIN - YAMAHA
The Babboe Slim is a clever challenge to the North American "longtail" bikes like Yuba and Benno and definitely raises an eyebrow at their design. The first challenge is impact resistance. All EU cargo bikes are tested to withstand impacts of up to 40km/hour, whereas this concern isn't remotely baked into the longtail design. In Babboe's eyes, a longtail is really one step up from a regular bike with a childseat (albeit a big step, a long tail is much safer than a regular bike with a childseat). The second challenge is: what kind of childhood memories are created when your children are riding behind you, staring at your back? The Slim puts the children up front, where they can see and where you can see them. Plus, the kids sit much lower than on a longtail, meaning you get better handling and more cargo safety in case of a fall. Combined with its impact-resistant frame, the Slim is a formidable challenge indeed!
Complete with a powerful Yamaha e-assist motor, the Slim gives you 250W of nominal power up to nearly 600W of peak power, meaning no hill is too steep - even fully loaded with kids or cargo. Powerful hydraulic disc brakes ensure perfect stopping power, while the "stepless" (there are no clicks between gears) Nuvinci hub is as low-maintenance as it is massive in gear range.
Manufactured from tough galvanized steel which has a chip-resistant powder-coated finish, a marine-grade plywood board and powerful disc brakes to match the awesome strength of the motor, the Babboe Slim is ready to take you and your loved ones far and wide.
