It's a great bike

It's a great bike. Wish accessories were more affordable and that there were more UA dealers/mechanics in the USA but on whole 10/10 would recommend

Best cargo bike brand

Best cargo bike brand! Very good service and very easy to ride. I couldn’t do without one (even though my kids are older now) as I use it also for groceries etc.

Life Changing Biking

We love our urban arrow so much. It has transformed our city for us, and it has transformed our lives.
We live in a very hilly city, and have three kids (4,6,7) and all of a sudden everything is in reach. And what’s more when we get where we’re going it turns out we’ve had a lot of fun on the way.
We have the cargo-line version and need every ounce of power it can give us. The bike is pretty high tech which feels a little worrying should something go wrong- but all of the routine maintenance stuff we’ve had to do has been very manageable, and urban arrow as a company have been really useful in providing assistance.

We love the Urban Arrow

We have been riding the Urban Arrow Family for 3 years now. It is really solidly built and very sturdy for everyday use. It is super easy and comfortable to drive. The rubber stoppers at the bottom regularly push through and are relatively expensive. The only thing that needs improvement is the rain cover. The zippers pull a lot on the material, which is why it tore in our case and the elastics wear out quickly.

Love my Urban Arrow

Everything is good. The battery installation mechanism could be better. The brakes always end up squeaking ( in MA USA winter at least). Great stable balance. The bell is inconvenient for the bars. Other than that I love this bike , I wish the bucket was heated , and the heated seat for the “driver”:) .

Really a 5, but an actual 4.8 out of 5, just need more guidance on home maintenance

Really 4.8 out of 5. It's just maintenance without a bikeshop who can help is non-trivial. I've a headset wobble that I can't seem to solve by tightening. And I have no access to a bike shop within 300km that can help me. It's a me problem. Urban Arrow gets more than 5 out of 5 for safety (hit an oil slick, fell sideways with a 4 and 6 year old in the basket)- they didn't even notice and continued to eat their croissants!!! The bosch motor is a dream, the rear mudguard is lightweight, and can be a bit finicky (3 min job to sort out). It's just the best out there, and I've had a few cargo bikes. 150% would I buy this again. I just wish, us home mechanics had a bit more support.

My family just bought an Urban Arrow…

My family just bought an Urban Arrow Family Performance line and it has been an amazing way to get out and about without being forced to use the car. And now that we have a little one who will be ready to ride this summer we are looking forward to showing our love of biking and the outdoors!

Getting an urban arrow was definitely…a decision we would never regret

Getting an urban arrow was definitely the best decision our family made due to transport, shopping, getting to work or school. After having the arrow for 1 1/2 year, we bought a second one. Both are in use every day. Approximately 80% of the ways we went by car in the past, are now done by bike and this feels really good.

Expected utility, got FUN…

I live in York and had for many years ridden a Gazelle, but with an increasing need to carry stuff around for my work, I took a deep breath and ordered an Urban Arrow Shorty. Brilliantly, I timed it right in the middle of the pandemic, so about a year later it arrived! I quickly found it did everything expected - good battery life, good capacity, nimble through traffic. But it was the unexpected that brought real pleasure - the lockable "boot" means I can do shopping inbetween meetings, or take camera equipment with me "just in case". e-cargo bikes are sold on utility but they are FUN; cranking it through corners like a motorbike and slipping through traffic queues. Many times a car window will wind down and someone will ask - "what IS that?" About four years on it's been reliable, enjoyable, and hopefully continues sending a message to the car drivers around me. To quote one of them:- "You've just made my wife VERY upset because I want one of those, and I want it NOW".

Great cargo bike

Great cargo bike, accessories are pricy but hold up well. Wish there were more options for customisation (e.g. frame colours, box colours, etc).
Recommend finding a local bike store to purchase as it‘s a pain to stick in a van to get it to a shop.

delighted with the Cargo Bike Family by Urban Arrow

I am delighted with the Cargo Bike Family by Urban Arrow for my daily use. The children are happy on the bike and prefer it over the car. We can cross the city more quickly than by car and in a more sustainable way. It is a great companion for my day-to-day activities.

The Cargo Bike Family is not only practical and efficient but also offers a comfortable and safe travel experience for the children. The sturdy structure and well-thought-out design allow for easy transportation of the little ones, while the comfortable seats and safety belts ensure they are well-protected during the ride.

Additionally, the bike features an electric motor that makes pedaling easier, especially on inclines or when carrying extra load. This makes the trips less exhausting and more enjoyable, allowing us to enjoy the ride without worrying about physical exertion.

Another positive aspect is the cargo capacity. The spacious front box provides enough room to carry not only the children but also groceries, backpacks, and other necessary items for daily life. This makes it an ideal option for active families looking for an alternative to the car.

In summary, the Cargo Bike Family by Urban Arrow has transformed our daily routine, making commutes faster, more eco-friendly, and fun. It is an investment worth making for any family wanting to move around the city efficiently and sustainably.

Urban Arrow Family next

We just bought our Urban Arrow Family Next bike last summer and we love it. Our two year old loves to join the ride and enjoys the view. Because of the great driving experience, we use the bike for so much more than just the childtransportation.
The only negative experience was the process to get our bike. We had a delayed delivery (about 2 months) with a bad Customer Support. But I don‘t know how much influence urban arrow has to the Shops, who sell the bikes.

Love my urban arrow

Love my urban arrow, I have had it almost a year now and have not had any more issues. It’s as reliable as a Toyota, and has enough space for 2 dogs(23kg, 5kg) and one big kid.
