Our bikes meet the highest global safety standards, so you and your precious cargo can do more of life by bike.
Before we started Lug+Carrie, we rigorously tested countless e-bikes. One of the many factors the Tern excelled in was manufacturing quality and safety.
Their bikes are certified to the gold standard of e-bikes and batteries – UL2849. It’s a voluntary standard and is expensive to test. But, when it comes to safety, Tern leave no stone…un-Terned.

Accessories to keep you and your precious cargo safe
Our range of accessories are designed to make your ride and your cargo safe. From the Tern Sidekick Seat Beltto the Thule Yepp Seat, we’ve done all the research so you don’t have to.
People are often surprised that I ride with my kids on the road, saying surely I don’t feel safe. I have always felt safe. The size of the bike and bright lights means it’s really visible. The small wheels make it incredibly stable. The kids are safe out behind and protected by the monkey bars. And, in turbo mode, I can move quickly away from traffic if I need to.
