Get. Stuff. Done.
The flagship model from Tern Bicycles is a radical achievement in design and engineering. The GSD pairs a strong and stable frame and wheelset with the top-of-the-line Bosch Cargo motor system, and adds a perfectly designed suite of accessories to complete the package. It's easy to handle, easy to share, extremely comfortable to ride, carries a whole lot of cargo—and all of this in a compact design that's the same size as a standard bicycle.
This bike is great for:
- Everyday commuting, but more fun!
- Families: carry two children and still have tons of cargo space
- Towing a trailer
- Apartment living: parks vertically, fits in small spaces.
- Cargo transportation and utility
- Farm, and tool transportation: ideal for tradespeople, handles well off-road.
- Restaurant delivery services.
- Off-road adventures
- Winter cycling 5/5❄️
Whether you're riding, storing, or moving it around, the GSD is a breeze to handle. The GSD's unique geometry makes for super stable riding, no matter what you're hauling (or how wiggly your kids are). The low center of gravity lets even smaller riders confidently manage heavy loads, and the step-thru frame makes getting on and off the bike a breeze. Plus, it’s easier for the rider's feet to reach the ground at stops. We’re thrilled about the new GSD, and its potential to transform families’ lives.
