Probably the best electric bike for daily use

The special thing about the Model 1 E-Bike from Civilized Cycles are the integrated panniers . These can transport up to 20 liters of cargo. The coolest thing is that they can be pulled out. Then they offer space for 80 liters . 

Civilized Cycles also ensures safety with the Model 1 E-Bike. Lights can be found in the back and front. The front headlamp lowers automatically when an oncoming headlamp is detected. The rear light also serves as a brake light. The brakes are applied using a hydraulic disc brake from Tektro. Various settings can be made using a special app. The mobile device is classically coupled via Bluetooth.

Life was meant to be experienced together, so the Model 1 is full of features that make carrying a passenger a breeze. The powerful motor assist, ‘boost’ throttle, and comfortable, controlled ride keeps both pilot and passengers happy.

With up to 50 lbs of cargo carrying capacity cushioned by a real suspension, wearing a backpack is a thing of the past. Commuting with a laptop in professional clothes, grocery runs, trips to the hardware store, or even a rough road camping trip is easy.
