When I first saw the ABUS HYP-E online, I had some serious doubts — but getting hands-on with it genuinely changed my mind.
The integrated lighting is actually really clever. Instead of passive reflectors, you get proper turn signals controlled from a wireless remote on the handlebars, plus a brake light that activates when you pull the lever.
The magnetic buckle is a surprisingly nice touch too.
What stands out most is that it still feels like a proper helmet first, not a gimmicky tech product. Just a really well-executed piece of gear for e-bikes and everyday city riding. 🚲💡
Job well done

Snap! Double Genesis, panda approved. Genesis Bikes
Ever experienced that scary front-wheel wobble on your Tern? Before you head to the shop, grab your pump and check your tyre pressure.
As you can see on the gauge in this clip, we tested this at 20 PSI. At that low pressure, the sidewalls can't support the weight of a longtail cargo bike, leading to that "speed wobble" or oscillation.
The Solution:
Bringing it up to 45-50 PSI (the sweet spot for Tern 20” rims) transforms the ride.
Stability: No more shaking.
Efficiency: Better battery range.
Safety: No more "squishy" cornering with the kids on the back.
Save this post so you have the PSI numbers handy the next time you’re at the pump!

Don't just look—try it out. 🚲
We’ve just finished a "spring clean" and refresh of our accessory wall and demo display. While it looks great, it’s really designed to be put to work!
We know that choosing a cargo bike comes with a lot of practical questions:
👉 “How do I safely carry two kids and still have room for the shopping?”
👉 “Where does all the gear go for the school run and morning errands?”
👉 “Which setup actually fits my daily routine?”
We’ve curated our range of luggage and passenger gear specifically to answer those questions. Because we have 14 demo bikes across 6 brands on hand, you can actually see these accessories in action—not just in a box on a shelf.
Whether you're looking for a quiet, grease-free ride that won't mess up your clothes, or you just need help figuring out which mix of seats and bags actually fits your kids, we’re here to help you put the pieces together.
Plan your visit: Tap the link below to book a test ride or chat with our team about the best setup for your family.
