A fat tire cargo bike for the places a cargo bike normally can’t go. 27.5 by 4 inch tires, Bosch Performance Line CX on the Smart System at 85 Nm, a 725 Wh battery with a second bay ready, and a Shimano 12 speed with a 10 to 51 cassette for climbing loaded on loose ground. 462 lb gross on pavement.

Why the S12
The one for where the pavement stops
The Orox isn’t a school run bike. It’s a 27.5 by 4 inch fat tire cargo bike built to haul a load down a fire road. Think Lincoln Woods, the unpaved stretches along the Blackstone, or a trailhead with two weeks of camping gear on the back.
What an S12 is
Shimano Deore 1×12 with an XT derailleur and a 10 to 51 tooth cassette. That bottom gear is why you’d pick this one. Loaded, on a climb, on loose ground, you want a gear that low and a chain drivetrain you can fix anywhere.
Bosch Performance Line CX on the Smart System, 85 Nm, 340% assist, with a 725 Wh battery and a second bay ready to fill. Kiox 300 color display, eBike Alarm and GPS tracking.
Read this before you buy one for the city
It’s 81.8 lb before you put anything on it, and four inch tires are slow and heavy on pavement. If you’re never leaving the road, the GSD P10 carries the same kids, costs the same during the sale, and is a far better city bike.
Buy the Orox if you go off road.
Or step up to the R14
The Orox R14 is $2,000 more and swaps the chain for a Rohloff 14 speed hub on a Gates belt, plus an 800 Wh battery. Sealed drivetrain, nothing exposed to mud. If you ride it hard and year round, that’s the version that pays for itself.
