The Full Scoop on Tern NBD S5i
Small in size but big on smiles, the NBD is an easy-to-ride, ultra-low step e-bike that's comfy and welcoming—just like your favorite bike should be. Whether you're a seasoned rider or just thinking about your first e-bike, or whether you're doing a quick grocery run or setting off on a new adventure with your kid, the NBD will bring a smile to your face. Maneuvering along streets and paths or through playgrounds and parks is child’s play thanks to a low center of gravity. Riders have maximum control, and the ultra-low stepover height makes getting off and then back on again a breeze—even when taking a kiddo. The NBD has an adjustable cockpit that only takes seconds to resize, all without tools. Riders 4’10” – 6’3" comfortably fit the NBD, so it comes ready for the whole family to share.
