The Christiania Straight Long midDrive The longest box bike in Christiania bikes range. The Long Box, 30cm longer than the Classic model, is for families with three or four children who want to ensure they have ample storage space for school bags, sport kits, shopping, etc. Model 30 was originally developed for the Swedish market only in 1995, but today it is exported throughout the world. It is based on the same construction as Model Light, but it has a 30 cm longer box. This model is particularly suitable for transporting up to six children by fitting six tip-up seats in the box. It is possible to mount three tip-up seats on each side of the box and still have plenty of room. Model 30 can also be mounted with either one or two benches or seats – one bench or seat in each end of the box. The box is a straight box – meaning it has a 50-cm box height all around. The size of the box has a volume of 366 liters and a max payload of 100 kg making it also a useful cargo bike for carrying bulky sizes of material and/or a lot of goods. The Shimano midDrive motor: With its powerful industry-leading Shimano EP8 Cargo motor that can take you across all terrains, flexible box suitable for all kinds of passengers or cargo, and premium finishes that will stay like-new even after years of use, the Christiania Straight midDrive is a fun and reliable trike that can grow with your family or business. A Motor That’s More Powerful – And More Natural The powerful STePs motor is perfect for hauling what you need, where you need it – including heavy loads on hilly terrain. The powerful EP8 motor can provide up to 60Nm and has a range of 40–60 km per charge. The battery has been developed in collaboration with Sony and contains Sony’s most advanced battery cells, which can handle up to 1,000 charges without significant power loss. The battery recharges quickly and can be charged while it is mounted on the bike. In addition, the torque-sensing motor automatically adjusts to suit you, for a safer, more intuitive riding experience. The harder you pedal, the more the motor helps – so it won’t jerk forward when you’re peddling slowly in a busy pedestrian zone, but it will give you all the power you need to feel like that last big hill before nursery isn’t there at all.
