Cargobike Flex Nova – electric cargo bike with updated Nova cargo box
Cargobike Flex Nova is an electric cargo bike for anyone looking for a safe, practical and affordable family bike with a spacious and easy-to-clean Nova cargo box. The model combines the updated cargo box made from durable plastic material with an Ananda rear hub motor and a battery placed on the rear rack.
Flex Nova is a more economical option in the Cargobike range and is especially well suited for families who want a stable electric cargo bike for everyday transport in urban areas, on cycle paths and in less hilly terrain. It is a smart choice for preschool drop-offs, shopping, shorter commutes and daily errands where you want to transport children, bags or other cargo in a simple and safe way.
The updated Nova cargo box is made from a durable plastic material instead of wood. The result is a spacious, practical and easy-to-clean cargo box that makes everyday life even smoother. The material is easy to clean after rainy days, muddy shoes or everyday family adventures. The new metal floor is also designed to prevent water and moisture from collecting at the bottom, helping to create a more durable and practical solution over time.
Flexible Nova cargo box with smart features
One of the main advantages of Cargobike Flex Nova is the updated Nova cargo box. The cargo box is more spacious than our traditional wooden cargo boxes and makes it easy to combine children, bags and other cargo in everyday life.
The benches inside the cargo box can easily be removed and reinstalled without any tools. This allows you to quickly switch between carrying children and creating extra space for larger loads.
At the rear of the cargo box, there is a practical lockable storage compartment. On Cargobike Flex Nova, the battery is not placed in this compartment, but on the rear rack. This means that the storage compartment in the cargo box is free to use for items such as a lock, rain cover, gloves, smaller bags or other things you want to keep close at hand.
The Nova cargo box is also compatible with an updated rain canopy. As before, the sides can be rolled up, but on this new version, the front can also be opened for improved visibility, ventilation and easier loading.
Affordable performance for everyday transport
Cargobike Flex Nova is designed for anyone who wants a stable, functional and easy-to-use electric cargo bike at a more accessible price. The model has the same practical Nova cargo box as Delight Nova, but with a simpler and more economical drivetrain.
Flex Nova is especially well suited for less hilly terrain, urban riding and everyday transport with light to medium loads. For riders who often carry very heavy loads or ride on steep hills, a model with a more powerful mid-drive motor may be a better option. For many everyday family needs, however, Flex Nova offers a very good balance between function, comfort and price.
Ananda rear hub motor with 45 Nm
Cargobike Flex Nova is equipped with an Ananda rear hub motor with 45 Nm of torque. The motor provides stable electric assistance and helps you move forward in everyday life, especially when starting, riding up gentle hills or when the bike is moderately loaded.
The rear hub motor makes Flex Nova an affordable and reliable option for riders who mainly cycle in urban areas or on relatively flat roads. The electric assistance makes it easier to choose the cargo bike over the car for shorter journeys, shopping, drop-offs and pick-ups or other everyday transport.
Samsung/LG battery on the rear rack
Cargobike Flex Nova has a 12.8 Ah battery from Samsung/LG, placed on the rear rack. The position makes the battery easy to access when it needs to be charged or removed from the bike.
The battery can be easily charged using a standard power outlet and provides an estimated range of up to 40 kilometres, depending on load, riding style, weather, surface and assistance level.
Because the battery is placed on the rear rack, the lockable storage compartment in the Nova cargo box remains free to use as practical extra storage space.
Shimano Tourney 7-speed drivetrain
Cargobike Flex Nova is equipped with a Shimano Tourney 7-speed drivetrain. The gear system makes it easy to adapt your riding to speed, load and terrain, helping to create a comfortable everyday riding experience.
Together with the electric assistance from the rear hub motor, you get an electric cargo bike that is easy to use for daily transport, shorter commutes and family logistics.
Stable frame, angled wheels and confident handling
Cargobike Flex Nova is built to feel stable, safe and easy to handle – even for riders who have never used a cargo bike before. Just like the Delight, the frame leans slightly in the direction you turn, creating a more natural ride feel and increased confidence when cornering.
The front wheels are also slightly angled inward to provide additional stability while riding. Together with the wide 2.4-inch tyres, this contributes to a steady and comfortable ride feel, both when the cargo bike is loaded and when children are seated in the cargo box.
The wheels are made from one-piece cast magnesium, without traditional spokes, eliminating the need for spoke adjustment and creating a robust and stable construction.
This well-designed construction makes Cargobike Flex Nova an electric cargo bike that feels safe, balanced and easy to ride in everyday use.
A safe and practical cargo bike for the family
The cargo box has seats with safety belts for up to four children. When the benches are removed, you instead get plenty of space for bags, goods or other cargo.
Cargobike Flex Nova is equipped with reinforced hydraulic disc brakes at both the front and rear. The parking brake keeps the bike stable when getting on and off, loading the cargo box or securing children in their seats.
The automatic lights help make the bike practical and safe for everyday use, whether you are cycling to preschool in the morning, doing the shopping after work or taking a ride through town.
Tested according to high safety standards
Our cargo bikes are carefully tested according to DIN 79010:2020, EN50604 and EN17860. This means that Cargobike Flex Nova is tested against strict requirements for frame strength, braking system, parking brake, load capacity, battery, electronics and passenger safety.
This makes Flex Nova a safe choice for anyone looking for an affordable electric cargo bike for children, cargo and everyday transport.
