The front carrier integrated into the aluminium frame of the NOW city bike can take a load of up to 10 kg. In combination with the small front wheel, the rack has a low centre of gravity, which makes the bike easier to handle even when loaded. The plastic insert in the rack prevents the straps on bags and backpacks from getting caught in the spokes. The hydraulic disc brakes offer high precision and, in combination with the brake levers optimised for small hands, improve safety and control.
Statement by the Jury
The NOW's robust and balanced design language appeals primarily to city dwellers who value practical simplicity and good performance.
