About the Roxform Porto L
In-store now, no waiting: 1 x yellow in Coulsdon. We are happy to move bikes between stores. If you'd like to try this bike in Tunbridge Wells, please get in touch.
What we like
The power system on this bike really shifts. We sometimes say that bikes like this 'want' to move. Although it's hub motor rather than a mid-drive motor, it still packs a punch: 60Nm to be precise. This means that the 'take off' power is very good and once you pick up your cadence (your pedalling rhythm) you'll be cruising along very happily.
On that note, the bike is sensitive to your cadence and gearing. So take some time to 'get into the groove' with your pedal rhythm and gear combinations, and the bike will reward you with impressively swift riding.
We also noticed that this was also very manoeuvrable compared to other long tail cargo bikes. It has sensitive steering so it never feels sluggish when turning.
What you will like
As well as the above features, we think you'll like how comfortable it is. We've noticed that all of the Roxform bikes are very comfortable to ride. The combination of height at the front end, and the quality of the aluminium frames allows seems to take any harshness out of a ride. It also has front suspension that's specially calibrated for cargo bikes.
If you're sharing the bike with another rider, there is a lot of adjustability in the seat post and handlebar height. Everyone can be comfortable!
You'll also like the fact that there are two batteries on board, extending your range to a potential 62 miles (depending on conditions).
Key stats: 2 x 468Wh battery / Shimano 7 speed / 60Nm torque / 31kg inc batteries / 190kg load capacity.
February Only: Free 'Family pack' which includes the rear passenger frame and foot rests. Worth £175.
