Following a very long wait, Specialized has finally released its new utility
e-bike, the Globe Haul. This new utility e-bike features a hub motor, a sub-$3000 price and a frame that may well set a new standard in purposeful adaptability. Last fall, when they announced the bike, they said they’d follow up with more details about the bike, but then waited until the day before its release to reveal anything else.
It may be that we figured so much out in our previous look that they didn’t see the point. (Pats self on back.) Now that we have the complete parts spec and frame geometry the Electric Bike Report team can dig deeper and examine what a shot across the bow this is from Specialized to the glut of direct-to-consumer e-bike brands.
