This may be the most affordable new electric cargo bike yet

Cargo e-bikes have quickly become one of the most practical segments of the electric bicycle world, offering car-replacing utility at a fraction of the cost of owning and operating a vehicle. But while they’re cheaper than cars, they’re still not exactly cheap.

Most decent cargo e-bikes tend to start around $1,500 and can easily climb past $4,000 or more, especially when including higher end components, larger batteries, and from brand names known for longer-lasting bikes. So with cargo e-bikes nearly always costing well into the four digits, an unassuming entrant from Buzz Bikes now seems particularly eye-catching, with the company touting its affordable Beekeeper cargo e-bike at a shockingly low price of just US $799.
