(BRAIN) Tern has updated its top e-cargo bike, the GSD, with what it says isbest-in-class hauling capacity, patented folding side decks, and Bosch Smart System features including ABS
braking, GPS tracking, and eBike Alarm.

Tern Team Captain Joshua Hon said, "Pretty muchevery aspect of the bike has been redesigned to work better. From big improvements like handling when heavily loaded to small details like how much effort it takes to get the bike up on the kickstand or how seatpost levers are easier for small hands to operate, the new GSD is just better."

The GSD supports a 210 kg (463-pound) Max Gross Vehicle Weight. It comfortably carries two kids, an adult passenger, or heavy cargo.

A reinforced frame with larger-diameter hydroformed tubing increases stiffness, while a longer wheelbase and lower center of gravity improve handling. The cargo-optimized geometry provides a more stable, confident ride with heavy loads or passengers, the company said.

All GSD models run on the Bosch Cargo Line motor, with a choice of two Bosch systems: eBike System 2 or the Smart System. Smart System models add advancedsecurity, safety, and connectivity features includingGPS tracking, eBike Lock, and eBike Alarm. Bosch ABS braking comes standard on Smart System models.

The GSD accessories options includeStow Decks that lock at five different angles to support loaded panniers, cargo or to serve as passenger footrests, folding away when not in use.
An available Sun Shield blocks UV rays on long sunny rides while allowing airflow to keep kids cool. Side panels roll up for ventilation. A Rain Shield snaps over the Sun Shield for full rain protection and stores
in a pannier when not in use.

Cargo Hold 52 Panniers have 52 liters of capacity per side, a waterproof construction, and multiple carrying modes.

The reinforced Atlas Lockstand supports up to 100 kg (221 pounds). A longer rear rack supports 100 kg (220 pounds) and is roomy enough to comfortably hold two children or a large adult passenger. GSD's integrated TowBar allows for easy attachment of a trailer.

The GSD meets DIN 79010, the German safety standard for cargo bikes.

The new GSD models are:

• R14 - Rohloff Speedhub and Gates belt drive, Bosch Smart System with Connect Module, Bosch ABS Braking
• S10 - Shimano Deore 1x10, Bosch Smart System with Connect Module, Bosch ABS Braking
• P00 - Enviolo IGH with Gates belt drive, Bosch eBike System 2
• P10 - Shimano Deore 1x10, Bosch eBike System 2
