Product Reviews

MYBIKE

The stiff frame gives a safe riding feeling, even cyclists over 100 kg should be able to handle the Tern well.

The HSD comes in multiple flavors designed to hit a wide range of price points. The most advanced version even offers automatic shifting thanks to a new partnership with Enviolo.

Elektrobike

With the new HSD, Tern has created an interesting e-bike which forms a convenient combination of compact dimensions and high load capacity—and which rides harmoniously and comfortably.

Both the Tern GSD and HSD passed the new German standard test up to their claimed maximum loads of 200 kg (440 lb) for the GSD and 170 kg (374 lb) for the HSD, which means they meet and exceed the German cargo bike standard. Read more

Cyclinfo

The loadmasters among bikes need a lot of space. Not so with the HSD, because it can be stowed vertically on its end.

WIRED

Tern’s small, fat wheels and low rack means that it has a much lower center of gravity than the average electric cargo bike. It’s also shorter than the average road bike, which makes it much easier to maneuver and to store. Read more

Bike Rumor

The new HSD is the smaller sibling to the dual-battery GSD e-cargo bike, opting for a smaller footprint in your garage and livelier feeling ride.
