        I’m not sure they’re very comparable. This is just a step-through e-bike with a rack whereas the Urban Arrows are legitimate true-to-name cargo bikes.

        When the design is changed so drastically there isn’t a lot of opportunity to use off-the-shelf parts to keep costs low.

        Also Urban Arrow does self-identify as “top-of-the-line”.
