Yer kiddin‘ right?Step-Over
The current C class (as of 2020) is very different from the one shown in the thumbnail. It is a center drive, carries the battery in front of the seat tube (down low), and is configured very differently. It uses a 7 speed Shimano Nexus rear hub, and is a class 2.Ariel Rider M Class

Normally I associate the marketing trade with the Dark Side, but they came up with a brilliant answer to the "girl's bike" charge: "Hey boomer, how come ya riding a girl's bike?" To which I answer: "This ain't no girls bike, kid; it's a STEP THROUGH!"I guess I must be enough older than you that I no longer care about the optics . I love everything about my Arroyo. When I first got it, I did get a little friendly teasing from my son and a few others about having a "girls bike", but anyone who I have let take it for a test ride just comes back with a huge grin! The Arroyo is just a joy to ride.
Interesting they partnered with a leather bag maker to make the panniers & integrate the front light in the handlebar bag, I hope that light can be angled downward though the 18,000 lumen spec is fishy and appears on cheap $16 bike lights on AliExpress. Overpriced for a 36v front hub motor ebike with a 10ah battery and Sturmey 5 IGH, I wonder how much is going to the bag company?"Beauty and elegance made in Italy"
Hi Dewey,Cero 1.2 an update should be coming in Spring 2021 for this cycle-truck style ebike with a new drivetrain comprising Gates belt drive, Shimano E6100 motor, and Inter-5e IGH
Timpo I think the brand rep is just confirming the version 1.2 model with a new drivetrain has just launchedWhat do you mean? Did it just launch??
I've seen a review a long time ago, if I remember correctly, it's a Japanese mamachari inspired ebike.
That's a smart design. Do you know what they sell for in the EU? Looks like it either folds or splits into two pieces? Seems like the North American market could use a few models like it.Etnnic folding step-through tadpole electric trike, from a Spanish brand & sold in the EU market. This one is a single speed with a hub motor, but they also have mid-drive, fat tire, and city models, with internal geared rear hubs.
Get Cycling in York UK sells the non electric Nexus 8-speed Etnnic folding 2.0 version for about $2700, and it looks like you could convert it with a Bafang bbs mid-drive if desired, the single speed hub motor version shown here sells for four grand, and the mid-drive with 3, 5, or 8-speed IGH for $4800. I too like the folding design a lot, reminds me of the Brompton the way it folds under, and having the two front wheels fold forwards makes it truly compact, the aluminum frame weight is surprisingly light for a trike, under 50lb, the downside to the lightweight construction is the folding version can only take riders up to 220lb.That's a smart design.

Correct - confirming the launch of preorders of the latest model. You can check it out at www.cero.bike. Thanks!Timpo I think the brand rep is just confirming the version 1.2 model with a new drivetrain has just launched
