What is an XCYC Cargo E-Bike?
An XCYC Cargo E-Bike is an electrically assisted cargo bike (pedelec) for the professional transport of tools, materials, or goods in daily business operations. Unlike traditional bicycles, XCYC models are designed for high payloads (up to 300 kg), stability, and suitability for continuous daily us, serving as an emission-free alternative to delivery vans in urban traffic.
What does “professional commercial cargo e-bikes” mean?
The term refers to cargo e-bikes built specifically for continuous commercial use, rather than private family transport. Key features include high payloads, reinforced frames, professional body configurations (box body, tipping bed, municipal body), and components engineered for daily use by businesses, municipalities, and delivery services.

Frequently Asked Questions: XCYC Cargo E-Bikes
How much does a cargo e-bike cost?
The three cargo e-bike models start at CHF 4,990 (XCYC LONGTAIL), CHF 5,990 (XCYC ALLROUND), and CHF 7,990 (XCYC WORK).
The price depends on payload capacity, range, and the chosen body configuration. For details, see the model comparison above.
Do you need a driver's license for a cargo e-bike?
No. All cargo e-bike models are classified as pedelecs (electric assistance up to 25 km/h) and are legally categorized as bicycles: no driver’s license, vehicle registration, or license plate required.
Where can you test ride an XCYC cargo e-bike?
Test rides are available upon request at YouMo in Rapperswil-Jona or directly on-site at your premises. Contact us via the contact form to arrange a no-obligation test ride.
Which cargo bike is suitable for a municipality's maintenance yard?
Which cargo bike is suitable for landscaping and green space maintenance?
The XCYC PICKUP Work with a tipping body is ideal: leaves, clippings, soil, and tools are transported comfortably and unloaded ergonomically using the tipping function—perfect for green spaces, parks, cemeteries, and roadside greenery.
Which body configurations make sense for trade and craft businesses?
For trade and craft businesses, we recommend a railing body with side wall sets for open transport of tools and materials, or a lockable transport box for valuable equipment.
Can a cargo e-bike replace a small delivery van in urban operations?
XCYC can carry out trips into pedestrian zones, inner courtyards, and restricted-access areas that a delivery van cannot reach. No searching for parking, no traffic jams on the last mile, and significantly lower operating and acquisition costs.
Are subsidies available for cargo e-bikes in Switzerland?
Yes. Several cantons offer financial subsidies for commercial cargo e-bikes.
You can find all current programs on YouMo’s subsidy page.
Is XCYC Swiss Made? Who produces it and where?
Yes, XCYC cargo e-bikes are developed and manufactured by YouMo AG in Rapperswil-Jona (Switzerland).
