Pre-Loved – Bakfiets Classic Short retro-fitted ELECTRIC

£2,500.00

This bike is now SOLD!

We are helping one of our customers to sell their Bakfiets Short on to which they arranged a retro-fitted electric motor some years ago (not via CarryMe). You will not be buying it through CarryMe, you would be purchasing directly from them. Here’s what they say:

“For £2,500 you’d get this lovely Electric Bakfiets Short in red. It was originally purchased in 2013 from CarryMe Bikes, it has been regularly serviced and always kept in a garage.  It was converted to electric by v-fiets and is now equipped with: Motor: V-MINI-PRO 235RPM 250W motor, 317Wh battery (new with a 2 year warranty).”

They state the following as included:

  • Foldable bench with 2 Y-Belts
  • 7 Shimano hub gears
  • Tyres (Schwalbe Marathon Plus puncture resistant)
  • saddle recently replaced

Additional accessories which they also include are:

  • Black Double-Cushion seat
  • Rain tent in Gloss Black (these are now £356 when bought new)

If you are interested in test-riding it with the owner in the Shoreditch Park/De Beauvoir area, please contact CarryMe who will pass on the current owner’s contact details to you. You will then do all direct liaison with them.

Please note, this is a direct sale via the customer, not through CarryMe. You cannot therefore use a cycle to work voucher for this purchase.

Description

If you were to purchase a new Bakfiets Short Classic today with the Shimano E6100 motor (that’s not the motor on this one) plus the accessories that are included here, the price would total £4,822 inc VAT.

Bakfiets.nl are one of the original manufacturers of boxbikes and one of the best. Based in the Netherlands – the heart of European cycling – they have worked for years to produce a popular and enduring brand of two-wheeled boxbikes and trikes.

The Bakfiets Short is one of the most compact boxbikes out there, but can still carry up to 3 children: two in the box and one on the back in a child seat up to 22kg (approx age 5-6). If you find other two-wheeled boxbikes a bit intimidating, give the Short Classic a chance as it’s easier to ride, park, manoeuvre and store. It’s still longer than a ‘standard’ bike, but has a great carrying capacity, and this acoustic version is great value for money. These bikes do tend to keep their value, so look after it and then you can pass it on.

Fully glued and screwed marine ply cargo box | Weatherproof tent with clear panels | Bench for two children with safety belts | Easy to use four-footed stand giving complete stability when parking and loading | Rack as standard, which can also take a child seat |
