    I love this bike so much. It's really delightful to ride.

  • Comfort & Fit-1 pts

    If you don't significantly outweigh the combined weight of the children you're carrying, you might have balance issues.

  • Cargo & Everyday Use-1 pts

    There's plenty of space, but the plastic shield collides with the bar that attaches the Surround Rail to the rack.

Cannondale Cargowagen Neo With 2 Older Kids

  • Motor, Assist & Gears0 pts

    I've been deep in the longtail rabbit hole, comparing numbers and planning test rides to find a bike that suits my family and situation (flat area, 2 kids aged 4 and 7). I spotted the Cannondale Neo 2 with a great discount, and on paper it seems amazing with an 80 kg capacity on the rear rack (most bikes seem to have a 60 kg limit). On pictures, however, it looks like a smaller rear rack. So I'm looking for experiences from Cargowagen owners with 2 older kids. Is it comfortable for the kids to sit, and stable for the parents to ride?

    It looks a bit shorter than something like the Tern GSD. Can you comfortably fit a child seat and some panniers or a small cargo box?

    It fits for the moment. They have to get on the bike one after the other, but the bike is very stable if the kids don't move too much.

    The thing I was most concerned about was getting going at junctions with the weight on the back, but the motor response is so quick and there's enough torque for it to be easy.

Tern Quick Haul Long Cannondale Cargowagen Neo

  • Comfort & Fit+1 pts

    This was to put the near extreme weight limit on the bike to see if she could handle it. Since she did, she now has more confidence knowing that a pair of children at 60 pounds on the back would be ok.

    It really does reach 28mph. Comfy with the suspension fork, and the dropper post. Good brakes. And decent/acceptable long-tail bench.

    parts availability was a bit shaky for the Cannondale.

    Having ridden 20" wheels and being a bigger guy, I can't stand 20" wheels. Too squirrely under load for me.

    The Cannondale will feel more zippy thanks to its smaller wheels and overall size.

  • Portability & Storage+1 pts

    the Cannondale will be easier to store because it's smaller.

    the child cage looks significantly smaller, so I'm uncertain whether it can accommodate two Yepp seats along with the cage.
