ELECHIC Short John Gents Cargo Bike: Stylish cargo bike with powerful e-drive
Our popular cargo bike, “Short John Gents Cargo Bike,” has a total load capacity of 100 kg. This electric cargo bike with a mid-drive motor is therefore ideal for transporting heavy equipment and can be used by everyone, from craftsmen who drop off their apprentices in the city with the toolbox to photographers with heavy photo equipment and, of course, small shopkeepers, kiosks, restaurants, and pizzerias that offer goods delivery.
This stylish, classic cargo bike has a quiet and powerful mid-drive motor, the battery of which is elegantly hidden in our exclusive leather bag. We call it ELECHIC. The e-bike is designed for modern everyday use in the city. Since the motor does not have a gearbox, there is absolutely no pedal resistance when the battery is switched off, so you can still use your bike as a normal bike if you run out of power. Be an eye-catcher on the bike path with this state-of-the-art iconic cargo bike with a mid-drive motor from Velorbis.
This urban cargo bike is spray-painted with a thick, impact-resistant powder coating in a timeless RAL 1015 Light Ivory. The lightweight frame is a classic lugged steel frame. All accessories are included in this top model, focusing on the small details, high quality, and aesthetics. We have fitted puncture-protected semi-balloon tires with integrated reflectors from the German manufacturer Schwalbe. The ELECHIC Short John cargo bike with electric motor is equipped with a maintenance-free Shimano Nexus 7-speed internal gear hub with built-in freewheel and roller brake (2 hand brakes on the handlebars), as our e-bikes are not compatible with coaster brakes. The e-bike also has a built-in maintenance-free drum brake in the front wheel, so you have maintenance-free built-in quality brakes on both wheels.
The front and rear lights are designed in a pure retro style with LEDs and a maintenance-free dynamo as a light source with a built-in parking light in the front lamp, so your bike also lights up when you are stationary. Power to the front and rear lights is produced via induction inside the front hub’s dynamo. The retro-style LED rear light is also dynamo-powered. Remember – always ride with the lights turned on for your safety.
An excellent little brass bell signals to your surroundings that here comes the majesty of the cycle path. Of course, an insurance-approved frame lock from Velorbis (YWS) is also included.
The e-bike has a complete leather package, including leather grips, a handmade, iconic leather comfort saddle from Velorbis that just gets better and better with time, and a matching leather mudflap. Our warranty certificate is wrapped in an excellent leather book, so you can easily store your frame and key numbers safely.

Ride in style with this classic e-bike from Velorbis. The Dutch-style e-bike is, as the name suggests, a classic, upright comfort bike. It is perfect for daily commutes to and from work or school and recreational trips on your day off. Carry your shopping or Velorbis gym bags in our iconic frame-mounted front carrier crate. The bike is designed in Copenhagen—the world’s cycling capital—inspired by discerning and quality-conscious Copenhagen cyclists.
ELECHIC cargo e-bike comes with our powerful Velorbis 50 Nm eDrive mid-motor system, which makes the e-bike a reliable and powerful electric bike. Velorbis eDrive comes as standard with a 36V Li-ion battery in a beautiful exclusive integrated leather bag and has a capacity of 500 Wh or 14.6 AH (distance up to 75 km on a charge under optimal conditions (can be extended up to 150km with an additional battery).
